“The only thing stopping me giving 5 stars is that the pin header socket is a little short meaning a few mm of the headerpins are visible.
However great little pad with an easy command line to add this pad to your setup, and for those requesting shoulders should note that there are to buttons marked 1&2 which are different to the Start&Select buttons - I find them sufficient, but maybe some could find a better placement and solder them elsewhere.”
“I had it up and running in less than 20 mins and that included soldering the header to the zero.
I 3D printed a little case to enclose it all and it works wonderfully. Buttons are responsive and the pad is great. Feels well built and amazing for the price.”
“This little bonnet is incredible. Had it fitted & running in about an hour. Had the pi connected to a portable projector running off a power bank for some mario karts & sonic on the side of my tent when camping!”
“Such a neat little device, the analogue stick is lovely, buttons are all satisfyingly clicky and it still surprises me you can make a game console this small! The only improvement would be some standoffs to support the board on the opposite side to the GPIO.”
“This unit fits neatly over a Pizero and after a simple set up script supplied by Adafruit you can use the controller on Emulation Station part of the RetroPi games set up to play games. I would advise setting up your keyboard first on RetroPi then going back into set up and configure the controller. If you make a mistake you can use the keyboard to get back to the menu to start again.”
