Pros & Cons
Pros
Bitdo's sn30 controller is a great retro gaming controller. It feels nearly identical to an oem snes controller but it's new and it's wireless. For the price its like an official nintendo controller, such is the quality.
Everything works flawlessly. High quality. Now hopefully they keep this recipie and keep pumpin em out with no changes. I think the kids nowadays refer to that as “git gud son’.
The * are responsive, the dpad doens't feel spongy. The wireless receiver does not have any noticeable lag.
Cons
I'm pretty bummed because otherwise they feel and work great. Decided to dedicate some time to beating a link to the past without a guide. Complete waste of money, but excellent build-quality controller.

I was a little disappointed that the jade green doesn’t have concave x and y buttons like the transparent black controller

I have been buying 8bitdo controllers for all my retro consoles seganintendosnes and others and i can say without a doubt ever single button in these snes controllers start to stick and not work tried cleaning them but it still sticks making it unplayable same with the other types but most definitely happens to snes way quicker

Wish they would make these a little bigger in overall size they are not comfortable and i think that with either different button type or just making it larger would be a great upgrade
