Old Skool NES Controller to NES Classic Edition Adapter for the Nintendo Entertainment system Mini

This product absolutely works with Wii factory remotes when used in connection with NES emulator. Play “Old Skool” games the way they were meant to be played!Excellent Product!

Thanks to all who have written such helpful reviews. While I could not get this connector to work for me, there are several potential points of failure I was able to determine thanks to the reviews, then a few youtube videos. First, my advice to those having issues with performance or an NES advantage working with the system is to first ensure you have both an authentic joystick and an authentic NES Classic mini. My first system I purchased turned out to be a fake. I now have a confirmed authentic system, and while the joystick itself does not work with this connector, I did get more functionality out of the buttons (meaning the A and start button worked - so a modest improvement). The real NES classic mini system does have a 5V power source (unlike the fake one which was about 3V) so that's not the issue here - as a few folks have commented on in reviews. That said, I've ordered a connector from a different vendor, and if that one fails to work as well, I'll chalk this up to some bigger pervasive problem with the connectors or the joystick itself (even though my joystic is authentic and certified as fully functioning by Amazon).

I use 2 of them with my official Nintendo NES controllers and they work flawlessly. The only issues I ran into were with the controllers themselves. (Bought a junk controller with a bad connector)

works with my original nes controller. rectangle with start , select , d-pad , and A, B buttons). actually. i have two controlers and it didnt work with the first one. that conroller must be broke. i guess my advise is : if it doesnt work with one controller, try some other ones before thinking the converter is the issue.

Bought this by mistake. Thought it was NES to USB. I don't own a Mini NES. I don't feel like bothering with the return. I did look it over though. It seems as well built as any original NES hardware ever was...
