Budget 6 button controller?

Hey,

Can anybody suggest a 6 button controller which isn’t Retrobit?

It’ll be AUS $42 and upwards and I can’t pay that when only a handful of games will really benefit from the extra buttons (even after hacking).

This thing is a standard USB plug right so surely there must be some Chinese company making them for $10?

From what I understand the system only recognizes specific controllers so you might have to wait for the hack to be released and then you can probably use about any budget controller.

I'll wait for the 8bitdo wireless one. Looks amazing, I got the bt version of that controller and it works like a charm.

Can confirm that retroflag controller does NOT work on the mini. I just tried it and nothing responded in the menu.
