    I love the retro fighters controllers. I wish they kept better stock so I can actually get the colors I want.

    My only issue with delivery is it took a bit longer to ship than I’d have liked. Packaging was very nice.

    The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars rather than 5 is because the face buttons (Y,X,A,B) seem to have a bit of a deadzone, meaning if you push those buttons in very lightly, the input is not detected. This may be bothersome for others but it’s not SUPER noticeable and I’m used to bottoming out my buttons so I don’t really notice it. The buttons are analog and they do not feel mushy, they feel pretty nice.
    The D-pad feels amazing; it has a tactile bump that almost reminds me of the Xbox One d-pad, but not as clicky. It’s like if the Xbox 360 d-pad wasn’t mushy. The d-pad on this controller is one of my favorite for any Xbox controller.
    The Back/Pause buttons are in the middle, which I prefer, and I like that you have the option to keep using the black/white buttons or just use the bumpers.
    The resistance in the triggers is nice too and doesn’t feel super cheap.
    Overall, I would recommend this controller for someone who wants a nice wireless controller, and for someone who wants a controller that can actually fit in your hands and feel comfortable to use, unlike the native OG Xbox controllers which are very bulky.

    Fast and prompt delivery. I wish the invoice wasn’t on the outside of the box, though. I ended up getting dinged for import fees.
