NES30 and FC30 support

Post by DeathByBFG » March 20th, 2016, 11:53 am

I read somewhere on the forum that with a firmware update the NES30 and FC30 controllers from 8bitdo would work on the Retron 5. Those controllers look pretty sweet and I was thinking about buying one or two. But does anyone know how well they work on the R5? I know the R5's controllers have a lag and wasn't sure on which end it was.

I've never really had much trouble with controller lag, so I can't say for certain if they're any better. However the feeling of not having and oddly shaped brick with clicky buttons in your hands is well worth it. I've got the SNES30 and it's lovely. I'd imagine the NES/FC counterparts are just as good, if not just a little more square. :)
