  • excellent choice, I revived the 2d games... it is a bit expensive but worth every euro since it also has online support for firmware upgrades! I am very satisfied with the build quality, to a degree I did not expect.... works perfectly in all versions PC + switch and with Bluetooth as well as USB.... I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of mame, 2d games on switch and also on pc... it is also compatible with steam...

    Update:
    Ultimately, it cannot wake up the console. Only when you turn it off and then try to turn it on directly. After a little while, it works... However, I always have the pro Controller next to me and I turn it on from there.

    I will give it a 5/5.
    I got it for the Switch OLED. I just received it and barely tried it. I had bought the Capcom collections (arcade stadium 1+2).
    Different game feeling... these games were made for this kind of controller.
    Appearance and build quality are just fine. Considering that all controllers go for €60++, this one is just fine. Also, because I read somewhere, for me it does turn on the switch and I have it connected with the dongle. That's all

    For someone who wants a basic arcade stick, it's good... for switch it's the only option...
    For ps5 and pc, if you want something really good, go for the hori alpha or the nacon daija... I recently ordered the latter because it's more sturdy and has Sanwa buttons and stick... overall, this specific arcade stick is low end but it's moddable if you're willing to open it up and change the lever and buttons

    I had been eyeing it for a while to buy. Excellent. Yes, its weight is a small drawback but otherwise it is excellent. It works very well on the switch. I haven't tested it on the PC yet, but I believe I won't have any issues. These are my thoughts for now, I may come back with an edit at a later time if something comes up.
    Edit: If it presents any issues, upgrade its firmware. It has a tool accessible from the manufacturer's website. Excellent for the use I wanted it for. Its cable is slightly longer than ideal (for my standards). It may cause a slight input lag due to the cable length, but it is negligible. It has not presented any other issues so far.

    Quite good. It also works on Android TV box. The best way to play old Arcade games with Mame or Retroarch.
