Review: Must have for the SNES Classic - The SNES Classic is an excellent product with a major downside - the controllers. The controllers that come with them are nice and authentic feeling, but they are wired and have no range. The cord on them is tiny and unbearable by today's standards, where controllers are either wireless or have a very generous length. These controllers solve that issue by going wireless via dongle. The controllers are also much more ergonomic; it's got these two small handles on the side that increase the comfort immensely. It feels good in the hand overall, much more natural than the originals. However, the best feature by far is the built in Home button. Originally, if you wanted to go back to the menu, you'd have to do it via the console. It wasn't intuitive at all, because you go to the menu quite a bit with the SNES Classic. Imagine if the Xbox or PS4 didn't have a Home button and you had to get up and go to the console every time you wanted to return to the main menu. It was very annoying, and this button solves that. The controller itself works pretty well. The buttons are nice and clicky and responsive and work for me. I played through all of Super Mario World and never blamed the controller for any of my mistakes, which is a good sign. However, I'm by no means a hardcore gamer - I'm just a casual user replaying the SNES I had growing up - so other, more technical users might have issue with it, but I personally did not. Overall - highly recommended. In my opinion it's a must have accessory for any SNES Classic. Review: KEEPS GOING AND GOING! LONG BATTERY AND AWESOME FUNCTIONALITY! - Keeps Going and Going! Okay, so not the energizer bunny, but this controller has lasted me about 60+ hours of game play so far without showing any signs of stopping. I have two of these and they work great together. My brother is an over-the-road trucker (and I'm a disabled veteran). When he's home on the weekends, I tend to play a lot of these spectacular games with him. We often lose track of time and play for several hours each day. We have never had any lag, or connectivity issues. Some things to keep in mind are the fact that you need to plug in directly to the wall outlet (surge protector, etc.) using the included power supply. It takes power to allow the signal to do it's job via the dongle (and it can't accomplish this long periods of time using a mere USB port on your television). The ability to access the home screen has saved this system and brought it from zero to hero in no time! Okay, it was always a hero, but the controller was lacking before this beauty came along. It's actually slightly less elongated than the original controller, but also slightly taller. The indentations in the controller allow for an ergonomic fit (compared to the original). Also, it's lightweight and balanced! NO LAG! I had to mention that again, because I have played every single game on here multiple multiple times, and it works amazing every time! The batteries are even balanced in the controller as one goes on each side of the controller! In short, buy two and stop worrying about the negative reviews (most of the time, they are competitors or someone not reading all of the instructions). As for the sync issues, the only time I have to "resync" is during start up and it's literally as simple as holding start button for like 1 second. I have NEVER had the controller need a resync in the middle of a game at all!!! ENJOY! ## Features - Inspired Design - To match the look and feel of the NES Classic Edition - Wireless Adapter Included - For up to 30 feet of range without lag or disconnects - Home Button - For quick and easy access to game selection menu - Battery Powered - Runs on 2 AAA batteries (sold separately) for over 75 hours of use - Ergonomic Design - For added comfort and less fatigue when gaming ## Images ![My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+UU9PYcZL.jpg) ![My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31V7bBpMEXL.jpg) ![My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41OsIEbm1XL.jpg) ![My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/610+JzNzWsL.jpg) ![My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vwe9qkdmL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for the SNES Classic *by H***H on February 27, 2019* The SNES Classic is an excellent product with a major downside - the controllers.

ENJOY! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I got no strings, to hold me down (anyone? anyone?) *by R***S on February 1, 2017* I was very fortunate in that I was able to get a NES Mini for my birthday. However, much to my dismay, after unwrapping the package, I discovered what many other NES Mini owners have been on about...short cables (hell of an oversight there, Nintendo). Most notably, the controller cable is incredulously short...I don't remember my original NES having such short controller cables, but back then, cordless phones were all the rage, so there's that. To get around this, I connected the mini using a 10 foot HDMI cable (I don't know why I have this) and an equally long power cable (ANY Micro-USB 2.0 cable will work...don't get suckered in by uselessly fancy titles and overpay for what is the equivalent of a non-Apple phone charger). But nobody likes having cables running from the display, across the floor, onto a table in front of you, just so you can use the packaged controller (which really does feel smaller than I remember). So naturally, I reached for my (wireless!) phone, and pulled up the My Arcade GamePad Classic - Wireless Controller! Ordered on Amazon, arrived on a Sunday (weird!), plugged them in (I ordered 2), and I was rockin' and rollin' without a hitch! The D-Pad is very nice and responsive; the squared A and B buttons were a little odd upon first impression, but they respond smoothly and quickly (important for Punch-Out...more on this later); the back of the controller has this deep(ish) groove in the back that isn't bothersome and makes gripping the controller easy; but notice that I have said nothing about the "Select" and "Start buttons. The center buttons (select and start) are located towards the top of the controller. While this may seem like a small shift, it unfortunately DOES result in a few missed opportunities in games where you may need to pause very quickly (The Legend of Zelda uses the "select" key to pause the game), or you may need to use a super punch (the "start" key in Punch-Out!) but the window of opportunity is but a few seconds, and you're frantically pressing your thumb where the "start" key USED to be (muscle memory can be useless here). This is a somewhat small gripe, but it's a gripe nonetheless (but not quite enough for me to take a full star). However, the wireless functionality is pretty amazing and you can use 2 controllers simultaneously without any hiccups. If you stop using the controller for a short period of time, the controller does disconnect from the receivers, but just remember to hit a button before you un-pause a game and you'll be fine (I don't get ppl who complain about this. Seriously...press a button and give it a second.) Overall, these controllers are pretty awesome, and at this pricepoint, they're hard to argue against (seriously, the $40 controllers are beyond ridiculous as far as price is concerned). I can't speak to battery life because I haven't had them that long and I don't play as long as I'd like, but go to the dollar store (or..uh...go to Amazon! yeah!) and get some triple A batteries and you'll be fine. TL;DR Version PROS: Wireless; Responsive buttons; Wireless; D-Pad is accurate and comfortable; Wireless; Controller is comfortable in-hand; Wireless; Projected battery life is good (but unconfirmed as yet) CONS: Select and Start buttons are awkwardly placed, which leads to taking punishment in Punch-Out (I miss the "Mike Tyson's" part of that title); NOT-A-PRO-OR-CON: Controller can temporarily disconnect with lack of activity, but just press a button (other than the PAUSE) to restore the connection before you resume your game. ## Frequently Bought Together - My Arcade GamePad Classic - Nintendo Wireless Controllers - Compatible with Nintendo NES Classic Edition, Wii, Wii U - Adapter Included - 30 Feet Range - Micro USB AC Adapter Fit for Nintendo NES Classic Mini Edition 2016,SNES Super NES Classic Mini Editon 2017,PlayStation Classic Console 2018,Google Mini Speaker Charger Power Supply Cord --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/36445188-my-arcade-gamepad-classic-nintendo-wireless-controllers-compatible-with-nintendo](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/36445188-my-arcade-gamepad-classic-nintendo-wireless-controllers-compatible-with-nintendo) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
