NES30 Pro – The Retro-Looking Bluetooth Controller by 8bitdo

Those of you who can appreciate the unique looks of a retro-styled peripheral will definitely want to get your hands on this particular game controller, as it looks and feels like it was just brought back from the 90s. The NES30 Pro Bluetooth Game Controller was created by 8bitdo, and as its name suggests, it links up with your PC, Mac, iOS or Android devices via Bluetooth. This means that it can be used with pretty much any platform and is compatible with a generous selection of older and newer games. Apparently, you can link up several of these controllers to a single device in order to enjoy multi-player mode, not to mention that you can play on third-party platforms such as Baidu.

Even though its retro design is probably its main highlight, it’s also worth pointing out that the NES30 is equipped with an ARM Cortex M3 32 CPU that virtually eliminates input lag while supporting firmware upgrades in the future. A single charge provides enough juice for 18 hours of play time, which is relatively impressive when compared to a regular PS4 controller, for example, which usually offers about 8 hours of gameplay. Priced at just $36.99, the NES30 Pro Bluetooth Game Controller definitely looks promising in my eyes. What do you think about it so far?
