At the start of the year Retro-Bit unveiled its Capcom-themed controllers, mimicking iconic pads from the NES, SNES and Mega Drive / Genesis eras. Naturally those of us with a love for retro gaming can't help but be tempted, especially as they're compatible with PC in addition to the original NES / SNES hardware.
Now our video man Alex has had the chance to unbox and check out the Mega Man and Ghosts 'N Goblins NES pads. See what he thought of them below, along with the affiliate links shared on the YouTube original.

They look alright. Alex, I'd like to see you return the Megaman controller even though you've voided the warranty. Then send them the link to this video afterwards.
I always preferred the Model 2 dogbone NES controllers, but these do look really nice
@Darius_Truxton as a child I saw the dogbone controllers for the NES model 2 and I was all pfft, get a super nintendo if you can't handle the awesome rectangle that is the NES controller! Opinion of like a 7 yr old. Nowadays I'm like: wish I had gotten a model 2 when I had the chance, lol.
@ThomasBW84 Any news on the SNES and Genesis/Mega Drive controllers?
Any news on the other product announced along side these controllers earlier this year?
I'm reeeeeeally looking forward to the brand new multigame SNES and GameBoy carts!!
The video would be better if you actually tried them out on an NES or PC. I'm just curious how they respond while actually gaming with them.
