Has anyone tried the RetroUSB wireless controller for NES?

It's a bit more expensive than the 8BitDo pads but uses microswitches in the D-pad so should be more responsive, especially in the diagonals (a big criticism of the 8BitDos is bad diagonal detection). Not sure I'm sold on the shape though, so I'd be interested to know how ergonomic it is from someone with experience.

Damn, it's ugly.

I don't care if it's ugly as long as it's responsive and comfortable to hold.

Man I wonder why more people haven't heard of this!

You hold down either the A or B button then increase or decrease the turbo speed by pressing the + or - buttons.

Probably because they don't have the budget for a marketing/shilling campaign.
