Best Third Party controllers for the NES Classic

[James Falconer]

Hey all! Was hoping we could all share our picks for best controller (wired or wireless!) for the NES Classic.

I've done quite a bit of research myself, and while the standard NES Classic controller that comes with the unit is ideal, the 3' cord that comes with it is NOT.

At any rate, in my travels these are my picks for best wired and best wireless (bluetooth) controllers for the NES Classic:

Best Wired controller: Orzly RetroPad
Best Wireless controller: 8Bitdo NES30

I was thinking about getting the 8Bitdo NES30 for my NES Classic, but I decided to get this instead: https://www.amazon.com/10ft-Extend-...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUimUvbUpU2900243

I feel like I should be playing the NES Classic with a wired controller for nostalgia's sake.

Yep... totally agree. And no worries about lag or having to charge the darn controller

That Orzly RetroPad looks really nice. Think I'm going to pick one of those up.
