Title: Best repro snes controller on Amazon?
Post by: pbj on July 11, 2020, 05:40:51 pm

Needs to be wired.

Needs to work with original hardware.

Cost is not a concern.

That's a tough one because the stuff on amazon is usually the same unbranded, Chinese, pads but with different sellers.  If you don't mind taking them apart and cleaning off the splooge you can typically find used pads for around $25 a pop.  If you don't mind the pal colors and can buy it on ebay they have a brand new in box pad for $50 right now.

I have some of these, Dunno if they are available on Amazon or not but they are pretty nice.

I have a couple of these:

They're the closest generic/third party I've found to the real thing that work on original hardware. Unfortunately they've showed as Out of Stock for quite a while now.
