Retro SNES-style USB controller that plugs straight into a PC or console-style setup for classic gaming
- needs a familiar, comfortable controller for retro games
- wants a plug-and-play USB controller with no driver setup shown
Your childhood SNES feel, plugged straight into your PC
Tired of fighting a mismatched controller on every old favourite? This retro-layout USB pad plugs in and gets you back to the game you actually came for.
The SNES layout your hands already remember

The layout your hands remember
The D-pad, SELECT and START sit where a classic pad puts them, with four face buttons in red, yellow, green and blue. Your thumb finds A, B, X and Y without a second look, which is exactly what you want when you go back to a level you have not touched since school.

Plug in and play
The USB-A cable is fixed to the body, so there is no loose lead to lose. The strain loop near the controller takes the pull, so the connection holds through long sessions. Tidying the desk? cable organizers keep the lead off the desk surface.

Grey or black, your call
Pick classic grey or charcoal black. Both share the navy face plate and the same button layout, so a pair looks right together on a shelf or beside the monitor.
Plugged in and playing in three steps
- 1Plug in the USB-A end
Connect the attached USB-A plug to a free port on your PC. Grip the plug itself when you unplug it later.
- 2Check the mapping once

- 3Start the classic
Load your favourite SNES game and play. Route the cable behind the desk and clip it at the strain loop to keep it tidy.

Questions and answers
Yes. It is a wired USB controller, so you plug the USB-A end into a free port and it is ready for classic games. There is no driver setup to work through. Open your emulator's controller settings once to check the buttons are mapped the way you want.
The body is moulded matte plastic with a clean finish. Matte plastic shows fingerprints more than glossy plastic does, so expect to wipe it down now and then. Keep it out of direct sun or near a heater between sessions.
The USB cable is attached to the body and the strain loop sits near the controller. The cable is long enough to reach a PC port on most desks, and you can route it behind the desk so it stays out of the way.
Modern pads place their buttons for newer games, so SNES titles feel off in your hands. This one follows the classic SNES layout with a D-pad, SELECT, START and A B X Y in red, yellow, green and blue. It is wired, so pick a modern pad if you need wireless.
Your modern pad still does its job for modern games. This one is a dedicated retro pad, so classic sessions stop depending on remaps and a button layout that never sat right. You get the controller and cable in one box, with nothing else to add.
One USB game controller with a fixed USB-A cable already attached, so there is nothing else to buy before you play.
