MEKBOK NES Controller - [Original NES system] Pack of 2

Since I was a kid I always played with my step dad on his original Nintendo he got as a kid himself. The last few years the controllers were going out. These work great, and now when I visit during the holidays we can still play together

Good product but it did not work had to return it.

This work wonderfully with the original NES system.

My son recently started enjoying Mario games and I wanted to show him the original NES but I couldn’t seem to find my controllers. I read through listing reviews and chose this one and crossed my fingers. It was easy to plug in with no trouble and stays in through game play as expected. The buttons are easy to move and function the same as my original controllers. No stiffness and nothing irregular in gameplay. Some say the red buttons are different as they don’t sink in the middle (concave shaped) as original but it doesn’t make it difficult to play (these are round with no sinking in). Great alternative and reasonably priced.

Surprisingly good product! I wasn’t sure what to expect when I purchased it but for the price it was worth the try. So glad we bought these! Works great with our system, haven’t had any issues with the quality or speed, not sure if these are the real thing or not but they certainly work like they are!!

Clicks feel satisfying and doesn't have delay making it a great replacement for the Originals. I myself was planning on swapping the PCBs to keep the original shells. the smooth inputs make playing a breeze again

Works fantastically without any issues.

I bought these to play a non functioning NES given to me by my brother I was able to get working. They look similar enough to the original controllers and are $10 for 2. The A and B buttons are convex (rounded outward) as opposed to concave (rounded inward or caved in). That’s not a deal breaker. I opened the 1st controller, plugged it in, and started to play Mike Tyson’s Punch Out. When pressing up on the D-Pad to punch Glass Joe in the face for the first time, Little Mac moved to the right. I did it again and he moved to the left. It took 3 or 4 tries of pressing up for Little Mac to punch how I wanted him to. I then opened the 2nd controller and it worked properly at first. I was punching my way through Punch Out no problem. My games were playing properly. It was good for about 2 weeks before crapping out similarly to the first controller. And instead of just returning them, I decided to pop them open and poke around inside (i’ve got plenty of experience with electronics and controller repair). The PCB inside is about 1/2 the size of the original controller and has a tendency to want to move around inside, causing the D-Pad to contact the board improperly. Also each rubber contact underneath the D-Pad is really big, causing contact to more than one direction unless hit with laser-guided accuracy. I ended up going to a local retro gaming store and buying an original NES controller. Don’t waste money on these cheap controllers.

Conseguí este par de controles para la emergencia y funcionan, pero se siente muchísimo la rigidez de la cruceta y esto suele resultar muchísimas veces en que se detecta, por ejemplo, el botón de "abajo" cuando presionaste solamente izquierda o derecha... Cualquiera diría que es/era algo común con ese diseño de control, pero recientemente pude conseguir uno original y se siente BASTANTE la diferencia.... En resumen, no son perfectos en detección y material, y más de una vez te van a hacer perder, pero si de plano no puedes conseguir uno original de segunda mano, pues supongo que son mejor que nada
