Review: Excellent controller for retro, indies and fighting games! - I have not used a “retro” controller in many years so when I first picked it up, it felt a little strange with how flat or thin it was. This is probably due to the controller having a pair of shoulder buttons instead of triggers like the standard Xbox and Playstation design. After a few minutes of usage my index and middle finger quickly got accustomed to the design. My only minor complaint here is the location of the button for selecting between wireless or Bluetooth which resides at the back of the controller. My middle finger naturally rests where the button is located but never pressed it by mistake. I chose the Terry Bogard version primarily because it was on sale for $19.99 at time of purchase. While the KOF 97 art is great, having pixilated flames printed on the controller actually doesn’t look that great in person. My personal preference would have been for the non graphic controller and maybe a good alternative would have been different color versions or probably higher resolution art from KOF13 etc. Still, it is great that these options are even available. I have never used a NeoGeo controller before so I can’t compare it to the original but my god this thumb stick is amazing for playing retro games, particularly fighting games. After a few play sessions I was able to easily pull of special moves in fighting games in either direction. This is pretty decent as I don’t always want to pull out a big arcade stick anytime I want to have a quick play session. The thumb stick is satisfyingly clicky and uses a 4 way restrictor gate. The thumb stick itself is made out of hard plastic so it should not wear out like the average rubber thumb stick. There is a single protrusion made at the top of the stick for grip and it works well as my thumb never slid off the stick during my play sessions. The buttons on the other hand took a while to get use to as they are much bigger than an average controller. Strangely, I had a harder time pressing two horizontal buttons simultaneously like “C” and “D” when compared to an Xbox or PS equivalent. It has six buttons in total so it should work great for indies or retro games with similar button layouts. It would be great to see an updated version of this in the future with six face buttons and extra triggers. Before purchase I had seen mention of dead zones in some of the diagonal directions of the thumb stick. Fortunately I did not experience this so they issue may have been rectified or I was just lucky with the unit I got. The unit was plug and play on Ubuntu 23.10 and worked flawlessly wired, wireless or with Bluetooth. A USB adapter is also provided for connecting the wireless adapter to a NeoGeo mini console. I have tested this on some NeoGeo classics on PC like KOF98 Ultimate, Metal Slug X, Samurai Showdown collection and various indie games. I am currently having another run through of an indie gem named Iconoclast and having a blast as the controller just feels natural. I have never played a real NeoGeo console and probably never will so I am glad that this controller exists. For the hardcore enthusiasts, it may not replace your arcade sticks but it is good “pad” alternative and is also excellent for indie and retro games. Review: Fantastic replica of the SNK NGCD controller! - Although I'm an SNK fan, I never got to actually try out the Neo Geo CD console or its controller as of the time of this review, so I can't really make much of a comparison on how well this controller holds up to the original NGCD controller. But what I can definitely say is that this controller works very well! :) The micro switch thumbstick is very responsive and has a very nice clicky feel to it, which I imagine is on-par with the original controller. The buttons are also very responsive and all work well. I don't know how well it compares to the original pads, but from what I've seen, it's pretty close, if not identical. I've tried a couple of neo geo games on PC with the controller and they all work fantastic. I've also tried out some steam games with it and they worked pretty well too. :) Obviously this controller won't work well with certain games that require more than six buttons (considering the controller only has four face buttons and two shoulder buttons.) but I got this controller with the intention to use it more on neo geo games and games that use six buttons or less, so this is not a dealbreaker for me. I've heard mixed opinions on the neo geo mini controllers that are replicas of the NGCD controller. As with the original pad, I've never got to use one of those as well, so I also cannot make any comparisons with those too, but if you were disappointed by how those versions were built, I think you will be very happy with this new controller as an upgrade to those mini pad controllers. :) Especially since this controller can also be used on the neo geo mini itself! (I'm assuming it can be used on the Neo Geo Arcade Pad Pro as well, but I'd look this up just in case as I don't own that console either.) As of this review, the controller is advertised to work with Windows PC, Android devices, and Neo Geo Mini. From what I heard, a beta firmware was released that allows it to be used on the Nintendo Switch and Analogue Dock, but I'd advise you to google for more information on that department. Would be great for them to eventually release firmware updates to officially support those systems. Also heard the controller works great for the Mister. Overall, this is a fantastic replica of the NGCD controller and definitely one I'd recommend for any SNK fans out there. :) Although I'd recommend just getting the standard version of the controller as oppose to the special edition that have character sprites from the king of fighters games printed onto the controllers. ## Features - A perfect recreation of the original SNK NEOGEO controller - Iconic classic click-style joystick - Added bumpers, Turbo functions, and button layout swap - Bluetooth (for Android only), 2.4G wireless, or wired connectivity - Compatible with Windows and NEOGEO mini via 2.4G adapter/USB cable, and Android via Bluetooth - Officially licensed by SNK ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C9DNGVKL | | Additional Features | Wireless | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,475 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #76 in GEM Box Microconsole #207 in PC Game Controllers | | Brand Name | 8Bitdo | | Button Quantity | 12 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Windows | | Connectivity Technology | Bluetooth | | Controller Type | Gamepad | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (818) | | Hardware Platform | Gaming Console | | Item Weight | 0.33 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | 8Bitdo | | Model Name | 6922621504108 | | Model Number | 6922621504108 | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | ## Images ![8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61R-lQaV1pL.jpg) ![8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41sWurq+85L.jpg) ![8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61oiBqhUS1L.jpg) ![8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8172fsklcnL.jpg) ![8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61V6jOPdKGL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Edition** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent controller for retro, indies and fighting games! *by R***P on December 14, 2023* I have not used a “retro” controller in many years so when I first picked it up, it felt a little strange with how flat or thin it was.

The build quality is really great. I've had it for over a week and I have yet to charge the battery. The NeoGeo pad itself looks very just like the original 1994 pad from what I've seen. I haven't tested it out on my Android phone yet, but as previously mentioned, compatibility on PC is not a problem. Overall, the 8BitDo NeoGeo pad very much worth the 30 bucks I paid for it. I recommend it if you want a tactile arcade joystick feel when playing vintage games.👍 ## Frequently Bought Together - 8Bitdo NEOGEO Wireless Controller for Windows, Android, and NEOGEO mini with Classic Click-Style Joystick - Officially Licensed by SNK (Mai Shiranui Edition) - 8Bitdo M30 2.4G Wireless Gamepad for Sega Genesis Mini and Mega Drive Mini and Switch with 6-Button Layout (White) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/538839725-8bitdo-neogeo-wireless-controller-for-windows-android-and-neogeo-mini](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/538839725-8bitdo-neogeo-wireless-controller-for-windows-android-and-neogeo-mini) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
