Highlights
Quality
The quality of the parts feels sturdy and the controls are all very responsive
I ordered this set for the retropie powered bartop arcade we were building and im very happy with the results
The quality seems ok not great but for the price they work as they should
For the money its a good product
Price
I have not yet installed these but how ever they are very well built and price for all you get is great price
On top of that the price is decent
Packaging/appearance
Easy hookup and worked right out of the box
The instructions that come with this are not correct as far as howwhere to connect the wires to the buttons
Competitiveness
This set two joysticks and buttons with usb encoders makes building a retropie based arcade a breeze
If youre looking at these for your own retropie arcade i thought id leave some helpful tips in this review for my fellow diyers
Of course you still need a raspberry pi to connect to if you want to build a retropie arcade
You can even use a firestick if you just want to use it as a tv

I checked and rechecked wiring tried different ports on the encoder and at this point it seems like there may be something defective about that one button

If you are using retropie make sure and put your select and start buttons in the spots stated in the usb control board as shown in the included instructions
