8Bitdo Sn30 2.4G Wireless Gamepad for Original SNES/SFC (Transparent Edition)

I am a really big fan of this controller. It feels nearly identical to an OEM SNES controller but it's new and it's wireless. It's really easy to use, you just plug the receiver into your Super Nintendo and press the start button on the controller. Mine paired up right away with no issues. The console recognizes it exactly as if it were an original controller. Button layout is the same and everything. I love the throwback look of the translucent plastic, I hope 8Bitdo eventually makes it in more colors as well. This uses a 2.4GHz wireless connection, which has almost no input delay. I had tried 8Bitdo's Bluetooth SNES controllers before, and there was a slightly noticeable delay, and pairing was sometimes challenging. With this, both of those issues are resolved. The other problem with their Bluetooth version was for some reason the d-pad didn't feel quite right, it was kind of mushy and wouldn't always feel right when trying to change directions quickly like in Street Fighter 2 or making corners in Super Bomberman. As far as I can tell, this revision has solved those issues as well, so the eliminated input lag and the better d-pad means the inputs feel precise like they should. My only very minor gripe is that these recharge via micro-USB. I wish it was USB-C to be consistent with most of my other devices, however it works and feels so good that I can deal with that, because it's breathed new life into my SNES collection now that I can enjoy it without running cords all the way from my TV to my couch.

What can I say besides this is the best wireless controller I’ve ever used with a retro console!! So happy with this controller I’m tempted to buy several and hoard em lol. I’ve tried so many wireless controllers in the past years, mainly Bluetooth and they all suck with the lag!! These being 2.4 ghz i believe make all the difference!! These are very good quality and if you’re looking for a good controller, they are well worth the money and the battery life is great. These also charge via USB-C so very convenient! You won’t be looking for a charger any time soon anyway unless you’re playing 24/7. Pairing is instant! Just press the button to turn it on and boom you’re done, no having to press a sync button or anything. I paired mine with Hyperkin’s Retron 5 console and it’s amazing!! I’d always heard these 8bitDo controllers were the best and now I’m a true believer! If you’re looking for a good one, look no further. No sense in buying two or three of something else only to trash them and come back here, save yourself the time and money and get one of these, you won’t be sorry! Highly recommend!

This controller is awesome hooked it up to my SNES and it worked flawlessly...def recommend buying....no lag at all.

I am a Mega Man X speedrunner, so I put hundreds and hundreds of hours into practice and running, and this controller held up very very well! No complaints - all buttons still work great. I first purchased the Kiwitata controllers, but after about 2 weeks of every day use, those buttons quit working. This controller is way better. I use it plugged into my PC as a wired USB controller.

Controller feels like an original controller. There is absolutely zero noticeable lag. There's no set up, just plug in and play. These are absolutely perfect.

Recently dusted off my old childhood SNES and this controller is a game changer, feels and works exactly as the original controllers, 10/10. Will be picking up the NES and Sega ones too.

Great wireless controller for the SNES. Little to no latency. I have no problem connecting multiple of these to the same console and it feels very nice to use.

These work great plug and play on original Nintendo consoles. For the price you get everything you need to play. No batteries and 8bitdo controllers last a long time. I have an original SN30 pro from almost 9 years ago with original battery and still works.

Se conecta muy fácil y rápido, tiene buena respuesta en la consola, y es cómodo para utilizarse desde más lejos

Exactly as described. I charged them up, plugged the receivers into my 33 year old SNES and away it went. No stuffing around with anything… just instant connection and instant play with no noticeable lag. They feel like very decent quality too so I’m hoping they last quite a while. I would hesitate to purchase more of these or even look at what other products this company has.

Excelente mando, de disposición idéntica a los mando originales, materiales de construcción aceptables, inputlag imperceptible, carga mediante USB-C, práctico para conectar y compatible con PC mediante cable, lo único malo que le ví es lo apretado del adaptador hacia la consola, si eres muy brusco lo puedes dañar

Excelente gamepad. Sem input leg e com botões confortáveis. Funcionou perfeitamente no Super Nintendo.

I've used several 8Bitdo type of controllers before, all of them great so this isn't really new to me. Tested this for about 30 mins on a Super NT system playing stuff like Gradius 3, Punch Out!, and Parodius. Works as expected, no noticeable latency. Transparent black looks great on this. Quickly connects to the dedicated dongle that's included. USB-C to recharge it. Just a great controller with a great colour scheme.
