I tried but it sold out too fast. I have the two NES switch controllers that Nintendo released for online members and those never sold out and are still in stock.. I'm sure they'll become available again soon.. gonna just keep regularly checking the Nintendo website.
4:55 you don’t need to take the Switch out of the dock or use another controller. The ZR button acts as the home button and the ZL button acts as the capture button.
You need to get rid of the menu commands at the bottom of the screen when you're playing SNES and NES games. When you launch the app, go to the side menu, hit options, and then toggle off the commands. It cleans up the screen.
William Moore Yeah, people don't stop and think about that enough. Same with the idjits who claimed C3 Joycon that came with the recent OG Mariko upgrade were better than their launch C0 ones. In reality, their C0 just had 3 years of usage and felt exactly the same out of the box. I'd know considering I have two sets of launch ones and also bought some C3 earlier this year when my main ones started drifting the bed. My secondary launch ones haven't particularly been used (and will likely see even less use now that the Lite is out since that's to be my main from now on) and feel exactly like the C3.
I think the feel of the sand paper feel is because they are literally brand new. The SNES controllers we have for the actual SNES console have been used by us as kids with cheeto greasy hands so that grit has been worn down do basically the controller being smooth now. Same with the L and R trigger buttons they felt different cuzz they have not got that played in feeling of years of using them like we did in the 90s of playing our SNES almost on a daily basis. ;) I have also done my un-boxing and review over on my Random PinballReviewer.
It’s the best you can do! I have mine’s like one year ago and it the best decision I’ve made. Don’t worry about the things about “originals” controllers
I use the the 8Bitdo Gbros. wireless adapter with the NES and the SNES classic mini controllers and they work great! There's no point in getting the Nintendo Online controllers.
U have it backwards, you 100% don't need this Ctrl cuz the button layout is identical to a pro Ctrl, u NEED the NES Ctrl because the A and B buttons are not in the proper position on a pro Ctrl for comfortable nes play
Start and Select are in a strange place on the Pro controller though, and it's bigger and doesn't fit into a pouch or pocket as easily as the SNES controller.
With the pro controller or the joycons for the NES games use A and X, instead of A and B. That way its the correct slanted angle and you can hold run and then jump in mario games like you're meant to. It's not as good as just being able to remap the buttons to B and Y, and it's dumb they don't let you remap them, but this is infinitely better than trying to play nes games with the wrong-angled A and B buttons
Dude same! I have been playing Starfox and beat it on easy and hard! It was lovely! And I really like Starfox Zero. The retelling of the 64story was lovely. And the control changes were very nice! It just sucked that there wasn't a dog fight multiplayer and instead we got Starfox Guard......wtf lol That is an app game right there! I say they should bring it to the switch with controller options and the multiplayer from Starfox 64 3D. Kills me inside that they had all the ingredients they needed for a successful starfox. Real shame! Great video as always bro!
I was born in 85’ so I didn’t really mess with NES. My first system was snes and those controllers are still my favorite for any classic game play. I remember the slight flex to the controller and the feel of the concave buttons. Reminded me of sweet tarts....just always thought that. Is the controller thickness any different? That’s my only question really.
Super Nintendo purists will absolutely appreciate the gritty texture, since it’s on the originals too. A few years back I snagged a couple of extra official controllers for my SNES, and they were exactly like the Switch ones. A lot of people are just used to the texture having been worn down.
0:29 you don’t really "need" this SNES controller either. The button layout is pretty much the same as a Pro Controller. Controller necessity doesn’t really come into play until they start adding N64 games, because the button layout is dramatically different on it.
The Super NES Online has been awesome. I forget just how high quality the Super Nintendo was. I will always hold a special place in my heart for the NES and the importance of it to the video game industry in general, but the Super NES was just that much better. It hasn't aged at all.
can't believe you would recommend this over 8bitdo controllers when they completely smoke it. More compability, analog sticks, better grips on the SN30Pro*, etc
I might be a minority but my first Star Fox game was Star Fox Adventures and I still think it is an awesome game. My second Star Fox game, and first traditional Star Fox game, was Star Fox Zero and it still is an awesome game. To each their own. :)
There is also a similar Easter egg on the NES Nintendo Switch Online app. The bar on the left turns gray and the sound effects are different when you connect the NES Switch Online controllers (the ones with the joycon railings on the top of you are wondering).
What will hapen in future when Nintendo shuts down Online for switch will we be able to purchase the snes and Nes Software so we can keep on our systems? Or will Our Saved data from the library of Snes and Nes be lost for ever?
I use a SNES Classic controller with the 8bitdo's GBros adapter (it's usually $15). The actual adapter has a home and screenshot button, so the only thing it doesn't have it's the pair of Z buttons.
I actually just bought the NES ones. Waiting for them in the mail. I'm really late to the switch online party but I'm excited for them. I'll probably buy one or two of the SNES when they're back in stock as well.
While this controller looks cool and well made i bought the 8bitdo SN30 pro to play SNES games and other games on my Switch. 8bitdo makes some very good quality controllers.
Too bad my 8bitdo SN30 Pro shows a generic controller. Nice little touch showing SNES controller in the Switch Controller menu. If you have not checked out StarLink, you should it is a great game with StarFox characters in it.
The easter Egg happens when you open the NES Oline with the NES Controller as well. Kinda forgot that was a thing so i didn't think to check if it was the same for SNES online.
I am using 8bito gbros wireless adapter to play with my snes mini controllers, i highly recomend buying it if you have both Switch and snes mini and still want youse the snes controller and don't want to spend alot and it cost 19 dollars on amazon. You can also connect a gamecube controller to it as well.
I have only one question. Will it work with Collection of Mana? Since both Secret of Mana and Trials of Mana were originally for Super NES/Super Famicom, and this consists of direct ports, you would think it should work, but I know nothing is guaranteed. It would be nice to have for SNES online games, but I mainly want it for Mana, so its usability for that will be the deciding factor as to whether I'll cough up the exorbitant $30 for a single SNES controller.
Nice, I cannot wait til I get my set. RGT 85, did you purchased the Contra Collection and The Collection of Mana on the Switch? I would like to see your take on how the SNES controller holds up to those games like Contra III SNES and Secret of Mana SNES. Thank you.
Think you may be the first to break this on you tube RGT! Been looking for the European Easter egg and have come up empty (I’m assuming it will be same sounds but different colour scheme for menus?)
People say 8bit dew because that's how the company pronounces it I think. Saw a video of someone making the controller say 8bit dew, not sure if it was fake or if they can actually do that.
Timothy Vreeland if you press Select+Start at the same time on the SN30 you can access both the menu and the rewind feature, not sure if it works on SNES mini controllers though
I have been tempted to grab a couple, I didn't jump on it right away so I will have to wait until they are back in stock. I've always liked the SNES controller, and I kind of wish the NES controllers were the dog bone style as well...
Pretty sure that was ZL and ZR on top of the controller. Would like to know if it works with MK11 and Dragon Ball Fighterz. I know the 8Bitdo controllers are suppose to be really good, but I would rather use SNES Online controllers. Damn did I say controllers enough times?
I only have the SNES classic controllers to compare it to rather than the SNES online ones, but they're exactly the same size and use the same buttons etc, and the 8bitdo snes one I have (that has analogue sticks) is better. Just get one, they're great. I beat Breath of the Wild using it, before I eventually got a pro controller. And for any 2D games I use it over the pro controller because that d-pad feels exactly the same as the actual SNES ones to me
Starlink Battle for atlas is basically the best star fox game we could ever get rgt, if you have not played that it is one of my all time favorite switch games you need that game in your life especially if you are enjoying starfox right now😁
Really excited to get my controllers in the mail! One of them will be for a giveaway! I have to say, it's kind of crappy that they are just going to put out Super Nintendo games whenever they feel like it. That does seem unfair. I think they need to give us at least an expectation. They need to give us a schedule. Otherwise technically they could get people excited and buying these controllers and signing up for the service, and then not give us any more games until October of next year!
There are plenty of Neo Geo Fighters for the Switch. Haven't you heard Arcade Archives? Plus SF probably won't come to the SNES app due to the SF collection.
I don't know about him, but I have a second profile on mine so I can play BotW with a separate save file, and to play free demos without having my play history on my main profile fill up with a bunch of demos that I "Played for a little while."
I got snes and nes control, and nes was worth it as well both of these control types can me used on just the joy cons alone. So I dont see your point on the nes control just being primitive cause of the 2 buttons. It's just cool to play the OG games with these classic controls it has a certain feeling to it. Feels like the past
I much prefer the 8bitdo mega drive/genesis one of fighting games. That d-pad is so much easier to do quarter-circles on, and it has 6 face buttons instead of the 4 on a snes one so it's more like an arcade stick
Did you end up snagging one of these controllers? Lemme know!
I tried but it sold out too fast. I have the two NES switch controllers that Nintendo released for online members and those never sold out and are still in stock.. I'm sure they'll become available again soon.. gonna just keep regularly checking the Nintendo website.
Got mine in the mail today
My dad left
Nope..because the uk/eu snes controller STILL hasnt been released in our area.
RGT 85 yes I got 2 and I button swapped one of them with a Japanese controller color buttons. Had to mod them a bit but they look awesome.
5:38 if you don’t want to wait.
Thank you
Oh dear god thank you

You are a living God.

Transfiguration really? I honestly never knew that I have to try that cus it’s so ugly
@@switchmaster5860 , it's just the menu commands at the bottom. You're still stuck with the weird border.
Transfiguration yea that part I’m fine with I just hate the control thing always being there! Thanks man
Cool story bro
Switch Master You couldn't have particularly known it. It wasn't added until the last update and the SNES app came with it by default.
Oh my God! No Stevie Richards!
Nooooo, I honestly loved seeing the intro though.
Thx god
And no Mitch the houseplant :/
Carlos Rosas Noooo, I also love that as well.
good
SNES controllers have been losing grip for over 25 years you would have to time travel to compare how much grip each one has.
William Moore Yeah, people don't stop and think about that enough.

I have also done my un-boxing and review over on my Random PinballReviewer.
Using an NES controller when opening the NES games app also added a bonus sound effect.
Yeah, when RGT said he didn't buy the NES controllers, I was like, "No kidding!" Hahahaha!
Play gta with these remote
I plan to get one of the 8bitdo hybrid controllers.
I got one of those cuz and they are great
It’s the best you can do! I have mine’s like one year ago and it the best decision I’ve made. Don’t worry about the things about “originals” controllers
@@javiercifuentes3824
Yeah, while these controllers look nice I'd rather have something I can use for more games.
good on you. it's the controller I use the most. if only smash could use the d-pad I'd use all the time
I use the the 8Bitdo Gbros. wireless adapter with the NES and the SNES classic mini controllers and they work great! There's no point in getting the Nintendo Online controllers.
U have it backwards, you 100% don't need this Ctrl cuz the button layout is identical to a pro Ctrl, u NEED the NES Ctrl because the A and B buttons are not in the proper position on a pro Ctrl for comfortable nes play
Ross Robertson nailed it bro
Start and Select are in a strange place on the Pro controller though, and it's bigger and doesn't fit into a pouch or pocket as easily as the SNES controller.
@@HarmonicWave ya the start and select buttons are in bad spots if u need to use them alot
@@RandomizationShow I'll probably still buy the SNES Ctrl if I can, but its not needed like the NES Ctrls
With the pro controller or the joycons for the NES games use A and X, instead of A and B. That way its the correct slanted angle and you can hold run and then jump in mario games like you're meant to. It's not as good as just being able to remap the buttons to B and Y, and it's dumb they don't let you remap them, but this is infinitely better than trying to play nes games with the wrong-angled A and B buttons
Rgt85 seems like the kind of guy who would use a mad cats controller while a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.
Dude same! I have been playing Starfox and beat it on easy and hard! It was lovely! And I really like Starfox Zero. The retelling of the 64story was lovely. And the control changes were very nice!

Star Fox is on the switch. Play Star Link for the Switch. It is the best SF game I've ever played. XD
Right i absolutely love that game it is starfox straight up and the best ever in my opinion😁

Nice. Just don’t put it “in a box somewhere”
I think that's what he is going to do soon, the controller is good, but there are better controllers on the market
@@blinkz64 true. I didn't find it horrible, but it wasn't good
It's sound effects from Super Mario World on the menu and a grey menu bar. That's the easter egg.
Thanks
8th video in and i cant remember what hat shawn was wearing when he said "Oh my god its stevie richards"
The Myles' High Club is done with the intros or is he forgetting lol?
A beanie.
Why cant we see Stevie Richards in the intro any more

You have to admit that comparing a official SNES gamepad remake to a knock off was a bit silly.

i hope they get restocked
i really want one rn
As I was scrolling past videos, I thought you were holding up an Etch-a-Sketch at first glance 😂😂😂
I get the feeling that Nintendo deliberately made the Pro controller's d-pad to be crap just to sell these other controllers for better options.
I might be a minority but my first Star Fox game was Star Fox Adventures and I still think it is an awesome game. My second Star Fox game, and first traditional Star Fox game, was Star Fox Zero and it still is an awesome game. To each their own. :)

It wasnt easy but I managed to order mine, within a couple of days of launch. I am excited for them to come in. Thanks for the review.
I'd love a star fox game but now with starlink I'd like something on the lines of that but actually star fox.
A switch on its kickstand with no joy cons and just this SNES controller is a minimalist’s dream.
Can this be connected to a SNES Mini..?
I loved Star Fox Zero. So fun with a friend.
What will hapen in future when Nintendo shuts down Online for switch will we be able to purchase the snes and Nes Software so we can keep on our systems? Or will Our Saved data from the library of Snes and Nes be lost for

Ordered mine snes wireless… can’t wait for it!
That's Cute
I use a SNES Classic controller with the 8bitdo's GBros adapter (it's usually $15). The actual adapter has a home and screenshot button, so the only thing it doesn't have it's the pair of Z buttons.
I actually didnt mind the dual box in came shipped in. Extra protection never hurt anyone.
No Stevie Richards, I no LIKE!!
All the time I put into playing Killer Instinct
I actually just bought the NES ones. Waiting for them in the mail. I'm really late to the switch online party but I'm excited for them. I'll probably buy one or two of the SNES when they're back in stock as well.
Oh mah gawd it’s steeviiiie richaardzzzz
Not any more its not
I'll get two when they get the damn things back in stock.
Top buttons are zl and zr buttons for suspend menu and the bottom button is the sync button.
While this controller looks cool and well made i bought the 8bitdo SN30 pro to play SNES games and other games on my Switch. 8bitdo makes some very good quality controllers.
that lighting tho
how is that snes switch controller compared to the 8bitdo sn30+ controller
What's up with the lighting ??
Does it work on pc using the charging cord ?
I think you can combine start with a shoulder button to go to the home screen.
Are they discontinued? I’d love to get one
Is this just a Bluetooth controller that will work with the PC
Great, now I'm going to want one for the sound effects alone 😅.
Too bad my 8bitdo SN30 Pro shows a generic controller. Nice little touch showing SNES controller in the Switch Controller menu.
If you have not checked out StarLink, you should it is a great game with StarFox characters in it.

Is Starlink not considered a Star Fox game?

Been looking for the European Easter egg and have come up empty (I’m assuming it will be same sounds but different colour scheme for menus?)
I just noticed the red bar today for the first time. I don’t have the SNES controller yet.
Can you play the other systems with this controller and can you play switch games like Mario wonder with this?
Street Fighter Alpha 2 was released on the SNES near the end of its life cycle; around the same time as Megaman X.
Hello! Were did you buy your controller? Thanks!
It's from the Nintendo website, but you need a Switch Online membership and right now they're temporarily sold out.
I see. Thanks!

just buy the 8bitdo SN30 Pro controller loll
Well, this is "officially from Nintendo" :)

Really excited to get my controllers in the mail! One of them will be for a giveaway! I have to say, it's kind of crappy that they are just going to put out Super Nintendo games whenever they feel like it. That does seem unfair. I think they need to give us at least an expectation.

Otherwise technically they could get people excited and buying these controllers and signing up for the service, and then not give us any more games until October of next year!
Does this work with links awakening ? Im guessing it dont because lack of d-pad support it'd be nice they added that somehow
Any word if they work with PC Bluetooth?
There are plenty of Neo Geo Fighters for the Switch. Haven't you heard Arcade Archives? Plus SF probably won't come to the SNES app due to the SF collection.
I've always been curious, why do you have so many Switch profiles?
I don't know about him, but I have a second profile on mine so I can play BotW with a separate save file, and to play free demos without having my play history on my main profile fill up with a bunch of demos that I "Played for a little while."

Alright that little Easter egg just justified me spending 30+ bucks on this controller. LMFAO
You're gonna wait a while
Why is he always yelling?
Cuz super nes/super Famicom :3
Can you swap the buttons with a snes classic onw
The ebay fleecing on these continues.
Gotta get one of those retro-bit usb 6-button officially licensed Sega controllers for Street Fighter games........
This very well may be the best option for fighting games.
I much prefer the 8bitdo mega drive/genesis one of fighting games. That d-pad is so much easier to do quarter-circles on, and it has 6 face buttons instead of the 4 on a snes one so it's more like an arcade stick
Can someone tell me where I can order this?
I already modded my SNES Classic controllers using the 8bitdo mods so I am good.
Same... also able to use on pc for snes emulator
does this controller work on pc?
I don't think we can even order them in the UK yet
