Bought to use with SN30 Pro+ and SNES Classic
I searched on if anyone else used this for a mini but did not find any answers on it so Ill share my experience. I bought this so i could use a controller to play. As for the 8bitdo controller, once I plugged it into my SNES classic I just had to press the button on the reciever, and the start button on my 8bitdo controller. Instantly connected and started working. What more can I say, if you want to get this for the SNES/NES Classic Mini, this is what you need! Have not tried to connect other controllers though.Ok : After using this for a few hours I have one gripe with itOne downside of this product is the sync button is SO SMALL. when you plug it into your SNES Classic it kind of wiggles around and feels loose. When you try to press this TINY sync button, I feel almost as if I am going to break the reciever or the port itself. I also fumbled around trying to update the firmware on my PC since the button was so small I was trying to hold onto it while inserting it into the USB port, it was quite painful to do. I think they should make this button slightly bigger. The Long design of the unit also makes it feel flimsy when plugged into the SNES Classic and feel not very sturdy.If they ever revise this or even read our reviews, I think maybe they want to design it to be shorter so it doesnt feel like the port will break from us just pressing the sync button.But I would assume most people just sync once and forget about it so they wont touch the receiver often. For me I had the issue since I was trying to use the controllers both for my PC and the SNES classic

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning: you will regret buying this
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2022
I bought these hoping I'd get to use the Wii U controllers I've had sitting for a couple years. Upon getting them I knew that I'd have to probably play with them a bit, mainly due to the bad reviews on here already. But what I got was way worse than others actually described.

First, I could not update the firmware on either of the two I bought with the app supplied on the 8bitdo site. It would not work. Now, according to the site, the latest firmware is v1.19. But the two I have are v1.16. Furthermore, their own repository for firmware only goes up to v1.16. I don't know if the app has new firmware or not though.

Now here's my main issue. There is a major issue registering buttons that severly effects N64/PS1 gameplay. The d-pad and joystick mirror each other. L1 and L2 mirror each other, as does R1 and R2. Even worse is an known preexisting issue in that the right joystick does not work with this receiver at all. So you immediately lose access to a good portion of your controller. With these errors, I can maybe play mario kart 64, but other N64 games are out of the question, not to mention PS1 games which actually use the L2/R2 for... you know, L2 and R2.

But as said, N64 games are completely out save a few titles that use little buttons. The right stick is usually the C buttons (acting similar to a gamecubes C stick) on a normal working receiver/controller. Retroarch actually has a genius way to fixing this no right stick issue with a C swap button. With that, you press the button and A,B,X,Y become the C buttons while C swap is being held down. But C swap is the R2 button. L2 is the Z trigger as well. You don't have L3 or R3 either so there is no way to map all N64 buttons without overlapping. It just isn't possible.

This issue is only an 8bitdo issue as well. I have a myarcade snes classic controller and the L2 and R2 buttons work fine. This (myarcade) controller is absolutely horrible with it's constant disconnecting, but with access to these two buttons, it's better than the 8bitdo receiver at half the price.

I tried to be as detailed as possible here. Ignore the good rating. This isn't a quality item. 0/5
