I've had some experience with the the box version of that. They aren't very good. They feel flimsy, the buttons don't go in all the way, the cords are super thin (my cat chewed them up) and the down button doesn't work. (on the 2 I've tried.)
Sorry folks.

That's sort of disappointing. I guess you can't expect much considering the price, but then again, the $2 price almost sold me on buying one just for the heck of it. It's sort of pointless if you can't use even one of the buttons, though.

I have some cloned dogbone controllers for my Toploader because they were substantially lower priced $5 each; I compared them to my 2 AV Famicom Dogbones; they are like perfect shape mimics without the nintendo logo.

Tomee branded, they are deserving of a 8/10 rating atleast because you can also put the official shell over them if your official one wears out but has a decent shell.

I see linkzpikachu's thread killing thread is stimulating everyone to post. :P

Tomee, eh?  Any links? I can' t find it. :(

Sorry folks.

I was searching 'gamepad' & I didn't know they could use 'NES' in the title. :-\

And next time, please don't use LMGTFY.  It's faster just to post a direct link.

NintendoKing

Let me google that for you, is just a way to poke fun at people by showing how easy it was to find what they wanted.  ;D

No shit, Sherlock - that's why I said not to do it again.

I try to be nice, & everyone starts jumping all over you!  I should turn into a Christmas Nazi - no presents for you! >:(

Haha! :D

I HATE THAT TOO. It tends to seem passive aggressive and the assumption is always made that someone who asked a question didn't search. I always search first before asking. The problem with search engines is that if you don't use the exact word that's used on the page, you'll often times turn up with nothing. Like for a controller, you could say "controller" "joypad" or "gamepad" and they'd all be right.

Is the tomee nes controller good??

NintendoKing

MarioMania, most definitely; I have used the imitation dogbones for about 7 months and no issues with button sticking or anything.
They are of a good build quality, definitely good replacements for crazy expensive replacement dogbones.

Do they feel the same, like you could conuse them with real Dog Bones?
Sorry folks.

Yes, except the plug connector is a different shape, the cords are slightly thinner and they dont have a Nintendo logo.
