Quality


The excitement around this controller is well-deserved, given its impressive capabilities and broad compatibility.


Its light but solid and its heavy enough for a retro pad and i even prefer modern analogue dual stick controllers to be lighter...  Read More


The mechanical clicks of the d-pad are a surprisingly positive game changer from the official neo geo controller.


What would make this controller even better would be a rubberized grip.

Price


For $35 there is absolutely no downside to this bad boy, and i highly highly recommend it.


Definitely worth it and it’s not too expensive.

Packaging/appearance


It has the satisfying clicky feel of a real arcade stick in a much more compact package making it the perfect controller for arcade games.

Competitiveness


I tested it out on some neo geo classics like metal slug and neo turf masters.


Neogeo is my favorite arcade game company and 8bitdo is my favorite controller company.


Although i'm an snk fan, i never got to actually try out the neo geo cd console or its controller as of the time of this review...  Read More


However i just plugged the included dongle in and bam off to the races.

    When i bought the neo geo mini part of the disappointment for me was that the arcade stick didnt really feel like an arcade stick

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I didnt really have much experience with the 8bitdo brand personally but i have always heard good things about them so i went ahead and bought one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The main thing i like about this controller is the clickiness of the stick


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its kind of a hyrbrid between an arcade stick and a modern day controllers thumbstick and seems to sit on a ball joint of sorts


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    While it doesnt give the feeling of holding an arcade stick i think it works pretty well for emulating that arcade feeling


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The dongle itself is a usb so you can plug it into anything that accepts usb however the neo geo mini the thing that i bought it specifically for does not have a usb port so 8bitdo includes a usb to usb c adapter in the box
