8Bitdo M30 Bluetooth Controller for Switch, Windows and Android, 6-Button Layout for SEGA’s Classic Games (Black)

EDIT 3/13/2019 - Information was incorrect, left for clarity but noted with a disclaimer. Remember to always read the manual closely kids.This this is a real blast from the past. I preferred the 3 button controller myself, but for maximum compatibility this was the correct choice. The D-pad feels as good as I remember (so it's probably better than it really was to use), the buttons are very responsive, and the overall feel is quality plastic and a modern USB Type C connection. The included cable feels like an upgrade of sturdier quality, and is black to match the controller with a rounded cable instead of flat. Works great for PC (bluetooth and wired) and android (Bluetooth) emulators in my testing, and will likely be my go to for the foreseeable future.Switch specific things of note:-EDIT: 3/13/2019: Inaccurate information, see seller comment below- The official Genesis collection for switch is my primary reason for purchasing this, however there is no remapping for controls in this version, sadly making it a mostly frustrating affair to play for certain titles. Many games are playable with only one or two buttons as the primary input, but for this game stick to the PC version if you plan to use this controller.- This works for Smash Bros Ultimate, and surprisingly competent at that. The DPad can be mapped as the left stick, though you lose fine control and will be dashing and smashing everything without tilt controls, for basic fun it's more than capable as a second controller.-EDIT: 3/13/2019: Inaccurate information, see seller comment below- The left stick mapping means that games like Tetris 99 will not function.-EDIT: 3/13/2019: Inaccurate information, see seller comment below - Additionally, while the D-input and X-input match the main face buttons to the Xbox layout, with C and Z mapping RB and LB respectively, and shoulders mapped to the triggers, the switch configuration matches the Nintendo layout physically, so A=B and X=Y which requires a little muscle memory.- Sega Ages games are the real dream for this, allowing mappable controls and are quite usable in Sonic and Phantasy Star at the very least.

I recently picked up the 8BitDo wireless controller, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This controller is a dream come true for anyone who loves retro gaming or wants a versatile controller for modern gaming platforms.First, the design is spot-on. It's a beautiful homage to classic gaming controllers, with a layout that's instantly familiar to anyone who grew up playing Sega Master System games. The build quality is excellent, and it feels sturdy and comfortable in my hands.The wireless connectivity is seamless. I connected it to my PC, Nintendo Switch, and even my Android device without any issues. The response time and range are top-notch, ensuring a lag-free gaming experience.The controller's compatibility is a highlight. With its ability to work with a variety of systems, it has become my go-to controller for various gaming setups, eliminating the need for multiple controllers cluttering up my gaming space.The battery life is impressive, lasting through long gaming sessions without needing constant recharging. And speaking of recharging, the USB-C port is a welcome addition, making it easy to keep the controller juiced up.In conclusion, the 8BitDo wireless controller is a fantastic addition to any gamer's arsenal. Whether you're playing classic retro games or tackling modern titles, it's a reliable, well-built, and versatile controller that won't disappoint. Highly recommended!

This is honestly the best controller I've ever purchased, period. especially for a retro gamer like me, and it works in so many different ways. Most reviews say it feels like a modern day Genesis pad, but I'm leaning my more towards a Sega Saturn controller. First of all, it fits perfectly in my hands, and I have big hands. And secondly, the D-Pad is absolutely flawless. Great for a Sega Genesis game on the Switch, shoot em' ups, or any fighting game in general. The battery life is quite long to, I can easily go 4 days without having to charge it. The shoulder, and face buttons are awesome to. Yet another great controller from 8bitdo, but I now understand why so many people say that M30's are the best.

I bought this controller with the objective of playing the NSO sega genesis app and to have the closest experience to play with a real Sega genesis. This controller works great with the switch and also with the sega classics collection. The only caveat is that you have to remap a couple of buttons. Once that's done, you'll be more than ready.The controller feels light but well built,the buttons and the D-pad are very confortable and the extra L and R buttons work excellent with NSO menus.Great buy, great controller. I really recommend it
