Thanks again for joining this drop! We have submitted the group's order with the vendor for the 8Bitdo SNES30 Retro Gamepad and they are working hard to prepare it for shipment.
As soon as the group's order is ready at the vendor's location, they will send the bulk shipment to our warehouse in New Jersey where our warehouse team will break it up into individual orders and ship them. The current estimated ship date from our warehouse is 11/14.

If anyone can confirm that THIS 8bitdo controller works with the old NES/SNES (via the additional wireless adapter that goes into the system) I would be happy to place an order (also preferably would like to see massdrop sell the actual adapter aswell, since those cost almost the same price as 1 controller).

Does anyone know if this device can pair with a Wii? I'm running homebrew channel with a host of SNES classics on an emulator. The Wii Classic Controllers pair with it just fine, but those are connected to a standard Wiimote. This looks like an even cooler option if it could work.

ComptonThese can pair as a Wiimote, and as Pro Controller on Wii U.

cohiiConfirming this. Got a pair of these for myself and my roommate, here's our experience so far for any future buyers:
First off, the build quality is excellent. They feel slightly heavier than the traditional SNES controller and slightly thicker (because these have an internal chargeable battery), but they are incredibly comfortable and responsive. The d-pad, start/select, ABXY, and shoulder buttons all feel crisp and familiar.
Second, these work best as a standard bluetooth device. Turning it on in bluetooth mode, it was instantly picked up by our Steam Link and was very responsive. We were also able to easily pair them both with a smartphone and use them as controllers for some mobile games. My roommate has an NES emulator on his phone that it worked smoothly with.
Third, after upgrading the firmware from the 8Bitdo website (pretty simple on Mac or PC), we were able to get them to work with both the WiiU and the Wii. This requires a lot of patience, however, and I'm still not really sure what we did to get them to work when they did. After several attempts hitting sync between the two devices, they eventually just found each other; WiiU took less attempts than Wii. Playing Super Mario RPG on Virtual Console on WiiU was perfect once we got them paired, though! Using them with the Wii required syncing a WiiMote first, then the controller, then swapping Player 1 and Player 2 from the Wii's controller menu, then going into Homebrew Channel to play. Definitely a hassle, but doable.

I got a wired snes controller made by a company called buffalo for 15 bucks on amazon. It also has the ability to apply a turbo function to any button at will... Probably not as high quality, but still... Something to think about.

Sir_SwagelotCan confirm. Got a pair of the Buffalo controllers for my retropie and they are actually really well built with great D-Pad and buttons. Best price/performance for SNES USB controllers out there.
