It allows you to play your SNES wirelessly with any original SNES or SFC model and even other aftermarket SNES/SFC systems. Review: Works flawlessly! Easy setup - I have a Retron 2 HD and this worked right out of the box. Just press the sync button on this and your wireless controller. What an improvement this is for an amazing console that used to be very limited by the controller cord length and now-aging stock controllers. Review: Great addition to any retro gaming setup - The SNES Retro Receiver does one thing and it does it well. I've been playing all my old SNES games with my SF30 Pro and having a grand old time. No trouble pairing, and no noticeable latency. Works great with my Dual Shock 4 as well. Makes me wish I could plug a Retro Receiver into my PS2 - think about it, 8Bitdo! Recent firmware versions seem to have improved Bluetooth connectivity. Previously I had to be extremely careful about where I was holding my controller, and random moments of stuck input just ruined my chances of playing 2D platformers with any precision. Now, I would confidently call this platformer-ready. I just can't hold my controller too close to my PC while paired with the 8bitdo dongle, that still gives me trouble every time. It's a compromise I can live with though. If you have one of these and you haven't updated the firmware on it lately, or ever, get to 8bitdo.com and download the latest version. ## Features - 【Experience Wirelessly SNES】The Retro Receiver is a Bluetooth receiver that you plug into your original SNES.
