I just got mine today, and even though it's not advertised as such, it is PERFECT for Saturn emulation through RetroArch's mednafen core. It reads as xinput and I've always had trouble getting my Saturn controller adapter to work well in RA, especially when it comes to switching back to a xbone controller. If you're a fan of Saturn fighting games, I would call this a must have. There's not a dpad in the world that's better than the Saturn pad, and although I was skeptical this could measure up (I've never tried a 8BitDo controller before) I was thankfully wrong. After playing 5 or so hours of Street Fighter Zero 3, a game that I've put probably nearly 1,000 hours into, I can say that there wasn't a noticeable difference between my performance with this and a Japanese Saturn pad. Every diagonal hit perfect, and it's leagues better than an xbone pad. If you want an authentic controller layout for Saturn and Genesis games for emulation, this is easily the most affordable way to get there, and also very close to the ideal way to play these games. The small size probably isn't for everyone (it took me a bit to get used to it) and I can't speak for it's longevity, but it does seem solidly built.
