Review: My new favorite Genesis controller - I have an extensive Genesis collection with games of all kinds, and I put this controller through the paces. It feels just right, from the quality of the plastic to the press of the buttons and the give of the D-pad. I love the classic 3 button shape, and this nails that to a T. At first I thought the three main face buttons sat kind of low on the controller, but having used it for a while, it's clear they went for equity of placement for all six buttons, and not just prioritize A, B, and C as the "main" buttons, with X, Y, and Z as secondary. The size of the buttons kind of does that already, no need to shove them up and out of the way. This is minutiae though, honestly. This is a great controller, the cord is especially nice in both flexibility and length, and I've got no complaints about it thus far.

It feels just right, from the quality of the plastic to the press of the buttons and the give of the D-pad. I love the classic 3 button shape, and this nails that to a T.

She's the one. *by K***N on April 12, 2026* The original 6-button controller isn't big enough for my liking. The 3-button controller only has three buttons (duh). Retro-Bit fixed both of those problems in one fell swoop and made what I believe to be the greatest Genesis controller ever made. Not only does it fit my hands pretty much perfectly, but the D-pad and buttons are also very tactile and responsive; really easy to tell which direction I'm pressing. It helps that it uses the 6-button D-pad, which has rounder edges and is more comfortable. The cord is also very long and very flexible, easy to work with and all that. The only complaint I have is with the start button, which is small and easy to miss, but that's just one flaw. Overall, this might just be my new favorite Genesis controller. Retro-Bit really outdid themselves. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retro-Bit BIG6 Controller Pad for SEGA Genesis - Original Port - Black - Retro-Bit Official Sega Genesis Controller 6-Button Arcade Pad for Sega Genesis - Original Port (Black) - HDMI Cable for Sega Genesis Model 1/2 / 3, Sega CD, Sega CDX, Sega 32X, Sega Nomad, Original Sega Master System Console --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/510150784-sega-genesis-big6-6-button-wired-controller-original-port-officially](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/510150784-sega-genesis-big6-6-button-wired-controller-original-port-officially) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
