“This is a great controller for the price. Be under no illusions that it is of Nintendo quality, but it is solidly built, comfortable, and works a treat.”
“Great imitation SNES controller that works perfectly with my RetroPie setup. Fantastic value for money as well, considering the price of some of the alternatives.”
“It's cheap, it looks cheap, and it works as such. The Pi Zero is one of the very few $5 products I have high expectations from. I read the reviews here, I knew it's a matter of luck getting good gamepads, but they were 10% - how can you not buy? :))
So I bought two. One of them is mushy and a bit problematic, while the other one is slightly stiff. With the problematic one I have to press the Up button on its top-right corner. Otherwise the Left button is occasionally pressed along with the Up button, which is not cool in fast-paced games.
For the cost of sending them back I could buy a new one, except they're not exactly great, so it's not worth trying. You might be lucky, or less demanding, but in my case it's a good thing I'm not a hard-core gamer. At least if I get pissed off I will buy something that's actually good and costs 5-8 times more than one of these. :)”
