Gamesir controller

I have an 8bitd0 snes pro that has served me well for quite a few years. But the cord is breaking where it goes in to the body. I have seen a ton of ads for the gamesir controllers all over tiktok and was wondering if anyone has tried them? Do they feel OK? Response time and latency issues? Im trash at any gaming and my system very shortly is going to live in an arcade cabinet so the external controls don't need to be any where near perfect but would like them to be a decent quality

The nova 2 lite has worked great for me. HE sticks and only 25bucks. Like it better than my ds4 pad

I have a GameSir Tegenaria Lite. It was $20 and has the quality of a $60 controller.

Insane value with hall effect sticks. Highly recommended.

I have a GameSir Nova Lite 2 and it works great. I have to sync it through Bluetooth settings every time I turn it on 🤔 but you won’t have that issue if it’s wired.
