It works flawlessly; I tried it on Windows 10 and 11. It is compatible with an 8bitdo wireless joystick.

    • Works great
Works perfectly with a DualShock 4. Tested on a modular synth with Sega Gamepad inputs (none of my vintage controllers worked) and it worked like a charm. Pairing was easy, works great. One thing I will say is try not to use controllers with analog sticks or the inputs may trip up.

    • Great for most Genesis wireless controllers

Review Image by TJSynkral TJSynkral
This adapter fits a specific need I had which is using the excellent Genesis controllers made by Nintendo for the Switch. The 3 button and 6 button controllers from Nintendo both work perfectly with this, and of course the M30 does too. Sadly, the official Genesis Bluetooth controllers from Retro-Bit do not work properly. They pair and a few buttons work but other buttons are not properly mapped. If I could I would only knock off 0.5 star for this, but if 8BitDo could update the firmware to accept the Retro-Bit controllers, I'll upgrade this to 5/5! ... show more

    • Makes Retro Gaming Future Proof
Works great with anything Bluetooth compatible. I've had a PS4 controller, 8Bitdo's own line of controllers, and some "other" brands and they work great. Even cooler is they have a port for micro usb so you can just plug it into anything making it a Bluetooth dongle in a pinch.

    • Perfection.
It works great. How I can play my Genesis with wireless controllers! I like to keep things as close to original as possible so I paired these with the wireless mods for the original 6 button Genesis controllers also from 8Bitdo and they work amazingly. You can pair them with every 8bitdo controller and most Bluetooth controllers. I updated it before using them and I haven't had anything go wrong in terms of input lag or dropped connections. 8Bitdo is one of the best in wireless controllers and I will always recommend them to anyone! ... show more

Used this to play some sonic on my retron5. No noticeable lag while using 8Bitdo M30 controller.

This thing works great! I use it on a Minigen HD with no issues. Connected to the M30 very quickly.
