The problem is confirmed for Windows from the various reports about it here, and thanks to our macOS users, we know that the triggers show up as regular old buttons on macOS as well. A user disassembled theirs and believed they saw analog sliders, however there was no way to set up analog. You get the disc that comes with it, and that's it! There is no way to get support and no way to contact retrolink.Īccording to numerous reports (see sources below), the analog L and R buttons do not work. Everyone who buys one is essentially on their own.

There is no website of any form available for support. They all share a common theme: they don't work right! Here's what we know. Many many problems have been posted here and on the issue tracker regarding these controllers. I'm not necessarily looking or authenticity, just a solid pad for old school games.Looks neat doesn't it? A USB controller shaped like a GameCube controller! Should be a good controller for playing GameCube games in Dolphin right? It is not. Since multiple people have brought it up I'll look into wired adapters although I'm not crazy about the idea. MaZa, that buffalo snes pad looks legit but yeah it is a tad expensive. Svr, I already have a Mad Catz TE stick for fighting games and spent a very decent amount of cash on just that one so a second isn't an option. The four raised corners eat my thumb whenever I use it at my friend's house making it very uncomfortable after a short time. On the same note, the reason I've ruled out the PS1/2/3 is that I really don't like the d-pad design on it. Maybe if someone wants to specifically address that point? Zero82z brings up exactly my point about the xbox pads, these games will make heavy use of the d-pad. I understand the fact that it already has tight integration with some games GFW and win7 but the only thing that gives me pause is that I've read numerous times that the d-pad is not very good quality. Just like last time, a LOT of you are reccomending the 360 controller (wired or wireless). Retrolink's is a worthless POS, Tomee one is decent at first but gets creaky as time passes, not as responsive as real one either. I heard japanese Buffalo snes one is great but I havent tried it and its bit pricey.

*edit2* there are also ready USB copies of old console pads, but I'd rather avoid them. USB adapter = 7$, original SNES pad 7-10$, possible repair kit 5$ = rough 22$, prices from ebay. *edit* Its all within your pricerange too.

You wont get more authentic and sharper feeling than that, other than having actual consoles plugged to CRT TV but that is another subject. Problem is that the pads on ebay most likely have the rubbers become mushy, maybe even deteriorated, so refurbishing kit is recommended too as is good cleaning with isopropyl.īut its all worth it, trust me. I would rather buy USB adapters from (or ebay, propably cheaper) and original pads from ebay (or ASCIIpad for Snes for equally good alternative as original, exactly same internals except for turbo buttons), something which in matter of fact I have done. After looking a little more I think it's because it's end of life.įor NES and SNES platformers Xbox and Playstation dpads are quite worthless. A few sources for $44 and a few for $20-$26 but all list as new.

$26 - Logitech Cordless Precision - PS3. * At the limit of what I'd like to spend since I want to buy 2. * D-pad is considered good quality although a bit large and "floaty." * Layout is better for N64 and Sega Genesis games which had 6 face buttons. * Wondering if that d-pad is too far "in" the controller to be comfortable. If I absolutely cannot find a happy wireless choice then I'll look to wired controllers.

These controllers (planning to buy 2) will be used for old games (NES, SNES, Sega G) via emulator on a pc so I'm expecting heavy d-pad use and I would prefer to keep it wireless and at or under $30 per controller. Not too much has changed since then but I wanted to get some fresh opinions on controllers I'm shopping. I made a similar thread a long time ago but never acted on it.
