Given the ongoing radio silence, I'll be absolutely shocked if they make their projected October date. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up ordering one and got free shipping Just following up on this to say it arrived today and is the real deal and works. It arrived way quicker than I was expecting too. Looks like they’re still in stock so anyone on the fence should grab one, except if you’re in the US because people have said they don’t ship there for some reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a shipping service has to be out there? I'd buy at least 2 if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a3quit4s | 4,102 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I was able to order the transparent but the delivery date is at the end of September.

Hopefully someone here got them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance you could include the SFC one with the Mega SG you're holding for me for a bit extra? Haha. Was hoping to get a Transparent one to go along with my Noir Super NT, and then the SFC one since I prefer the SFC color scheme to the SNES one.

Just keep in mind these are for the classic edition or mini consoles not the normal SNES or SFC. https://www.8bitdo.com/sn30-sf30-2_4g-for-snes-and-sfc-classic-edition/ Got an order update on my black transparent SN30, should be here 9/19 or 9/20 which is good. I thought I was going to get cancelled for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooh OK, I misunderstood, I thought you meant you had the SNES and SFC ones with the original connectors that briefly went in stock earlier today, my bad. Nevermind, I'm good in that case The hunt continues I suppose, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the adapter is out of stock right now as well, but more will be in stock this month apparently.

For $30 though, I think I'd prefer to just try and hunt down the controllers with the original connectors. Thanks for letting me know about that though, this would definitely be a good backup plan if the original controllers continue being impossible to get.

Tanooki | 4,934 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I recently got with my PC Engine mini an also new PCE style 2.4g wireless controller of theirs, looks interesting. I need to see if it holds up far better than the garbage fire snes controller I got with the Super NT over a year or two ago. It was always running out of juice and seemed to drag slightly.
