First up, as a long time fan if real Saturn pads I am entirely satisfied with this product. Spotting the difference between this and a twenty year old original Coolpad is not easy, and quality, feel and functionality seem like the best we could hope for.But the point of my review is to highlight that Retro-bit recently upgraded this item to what they call “model 2”, and that it is now completely Switch compatible, which you might not expect from the FAQs. The problem is, if you buy one from Amazon, will it be “Model 1” or “Model 2”? This is important not just for Switch users, but for those of you wanting to buy multiples to use in an emulator setup. In my case,these looked perfect for 6-player X-Men on MAME.My story is that I ordered 6 of them, but it turned out that half were the new ones and half were the old ones. As a result they have different product and vendor IDs on my computer, and SDLMame gives them different names, making Joypad config a nightmare.Amazingly, when I flagged this with Amazon at 9pm on a Friday night, I had replacements for my three old ones by noon the next day. It took me a while to explain the issue to the guy on the call centre, but he was really excellent and listened hard. The boxes are identical, the only way to tell the difference at our end is to open them and check the circuit board inside (through the smoke exterior). New ones have a smaller chip in the middle, and the code number under the d-pad ends in “215”. For most people, these are the ones you want.So, long story, but do check which one you get, and if it’s an old one, I hope you can point customer service at this message to help you explain your issue. Amazon has many practices I do not approve of, but the way they fixed this was borderline incredible, so huge thanks to Mark on the phones, and everyone I. Their supply chain that sorted me out.Now, roll on the long promised analogue wireless ones, which I assume are being held back u til after Christmas to help shift the normal wireless options. Wireless, analogue Saturn pad must be the ultimate MAME input device, as long as the sticks can match the quality of the rest of the design.

I still have and use a saturn with this original pad. This an exact replica in look, and most importantly feel, of the best 2D pad ever made. The d pad is perfect, larger than those shipped on modern systems and old and new Nintendos and is comfortable, responsive and very difficult to make input errors on. I had thought I'd become useless at Mario World in my old age, turns out just needed a good pad. Given this a good whirl on a few capcom and SNK fighters, and it's just as good as it was in 1995, registering inputs perfectly. Whilst ergonomics have come on a lot over the years, this is still comfortable to use,and a lot nicer than carpel tunnel inducing snes pads that most retro systems come with (and I love my snes)

The controller is good for the Retro-bit Super Retro-Cade console although it's missing the select button so you'll need to use one of the stock controllers in port 2 to return to menu/insert coins. Also using it on PS3 for playing Saturn Games like Virtua Fighter 2 and Daytona USA. Recommended for retro enthusiasts.

Failing to get a Megadrive controller to USB adapter that didn't suck...decided to go for a "real" controller for games and emulators. I must say that this thing feels amazing to hold, the dpad feels just right, buttons are not mushy or too clicky...and it works right out of the box.10/10 recommended!

Expeditious delivery and the product exceeded my expectations. I purchased it mainly for use with RetroPie on Raspberrypi and after a quick configuration it’s worked flawlessly since. The cord is remarkably long also so there’s no worries about having to sit too close to the system.

I was one of the few Saturn users in the PlayStation dictatorship and I can say this is the real Saturn controller. The same click in L and R buttons, same feeling in your hands, the same d-pad... very happy with this purchase. Highly recommended. Very long easy right, maybe!!

Works with Retroarch, sets up automatically no messing around! Great quality, feels exactly like an original Saturn pad, I can now play Street Fighter the right way!

It works, I like the fact that you can change the d-pad to work more like an analogue stick, so it can be used in newer games.

Good product. Buttons are a bit plastic and clicky but it’s the original feel.

Superb 2D gamepad, a perfect pairing for the Mega Drive Mini.
