Solid Gamepad

Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2003

Verified Purchase

The major selling points:
1. There are lots of buttons, but they are all well-placed, so I rarely hit the wrong one.
2. Even if you have small hands, you can still comfortably use it, meaning it's fine for young adults, women and men. It's also easy to hold and not heavy, yet sturdy.
3. It truly is plug and play: no drivers needed when I loaded it onto a Win98SE, so I assume anything after that will be the same.
4. The price is definitely reasonable.
Don't be scared away just because it's Microsoft. It works and it works well. However, I don't suggest you try to use it with a USB hub. I've heard of it having some problems with those. If you stick with a traditional USB slot that plugs right into the board, you'll be fine.
This is a safe buy.

Oh memories

I will admit I have a penchant for the games of the 80's and 90's. When I don't feel like pulling the system out, this is what i use to play on my computer. The upsides
1) Shoulder buttons so SNES friendly
2) "abc" buttons for easy Sega systems
3) instantly recognized in every windows I have used from 98, Me, xp, 2000, vista, 7
4) At least in their heyday, not expensive
5) durable as can be, no sticking or broken buttons ever in over 10 years of ownership

Downsides

1) Simple, not enough buttons for modern systems with double shoulders, etc
2) not evenly sized abc / xyz buttons (abc are bigger)
3) not for me, but you probably need a decent hand / thumb size to operate.

Absolutely what I expected.

Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2006

I bought this controller at a wal mart about a year back (roughly) And it's been pretty good for the $15 I paid for it. Now that it's showing its age, the down button doesn't work so well, but I didn't expect it to last forever. Worth $15, but not much more.

I was ripped off.

Do not buy from these sellers. I would give 0 stars if I could.

I ordered this gamepad because of the USB connection. The sellers even shows photos of the item in question with a USB connection. When the item arrived it was a gameport connection. I already own this version and needed the USB version.

DO NOT BUY FROM THESE SELLERS THEY ARE A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sidewinders are awesome

Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2009

Verified Purchase

This USB sidewinder is one of the best controllers ever made. With 6 top-side buttons and 2 triggers, its the perfect controller for a variety of games that don't require 2 analog sticks or 4 trigger buttons. I user a XBox 360 Wireless controller for Windows for ones that need more buttons or analog sticks. But none of them compare to this.

The only better controller is not feasible. Its a genesis 6-button controller for normal use and a capcom/genesis 6 button arcade stick for fighting games. If you're one of the lucky ones like myself, you have Genesis->USB adaptors. If not get this Sidewinder

Nice feel, mediocre play control

Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2002

This pad has a nice feel and molds to your hands. However, the button action is a bit stiff for my taste, and the D-pad is circular instead of cross-shaped. This design causes a lot of unwanted ducking and jumping because it is hard to press the D-pad in such a way that it only registers one direction at a time.
So overall, play control suffers a bit because you have to be more vigilant about which direction you are pressing (as opposed to cross-shaped D-pad designs), but the comfort is very good.
