  Sega Saturn White 2.4 GHz

  Posted by John on Aug 24th 2023

  I have had the blue version since the first run of production and it is still working great! I mention those because the white variation seems to have a more tight d-pad which is more like the original. I like the feel of the d-pad and the very nice pivot for shoot ‘em ups like Truxton and Fire Shark. The latency seems very low being a 2.4 connection instead of Bluetooth and have the updated firmware. I can regularly get to the 2nd stage boss of Truxton on Steam and because of me needing more practice is the reason for not making it further. I will try it on Fire Shark that is out today on Steam and see if I can make it to the 4th stage boss and beat my score of 464,000. I think I will eventually since the d-pad and responsiveness of the buttons are really good!

  Amazing controller! Can pair with Genesis receiver*

  Posted by Austin Head on Jun 17th 2023

  I was able to pair it with the Retro-bit Genesis receiver (sold separately) that came with my 2.4 GHz Big6 controller and it`s now my go to ``Genesis`` controller.

  Retro-bit Sega Saturn controller

  Before I think it will not restock, but lucky me I grab one with the original price instead of swindlers who want to sell in $300.

  Retro-Bit wireless Controller for Saturn

  Posted by Kevin K on Mar 21st 2023

  Big fan of this controller. Works fantastic on the Saturn. No issues there. My one gripe is that I can`t seem to get it to work well on the Steam Deck. Not sure if its a firmware issue or not, but I went through tons of videos and searches trying to figure out how to get it to work with my Saturn Roms, and at the end of the day could not figure it out at all. The controller itself feels authentic and well put together.

  Feels like the original, but it has a critical flaw.

  Posted by Thomas Driscoll on Mar 7th 2023

  I feel a bit bad giving this three stars, but I feel that I need to review this product as it currently is and it currently has a pretty significant issue. To cut right to the chase, the controller does not work when the Action Replay 4M Plus loads. If you swap to a regular controller, you can advance the menus and then swap back to the wireless controller, it works fine. It`s annoying to have to swap controllers around when starting the system. I emailed Retrobit about this and they stated that it`s a known issue they`re looking into and will look into releasing a firmware update to fix it. It looks like both the controller and receiver is capable of receiving an update. If this does get fixed in the future I`ll try to remember to update this review.
  
  Beyond that issue the controller seems to work well. Everything feels nice and responsive. It feels very similar to my official wired remote.
  
  Some brief notes on the color. I got the white one to match my Japanese Saturn. There`s a lot of light bleed from the charging LED through the white plastic. It looks a bit cheap but you don`t see it while you`re using it. I`m curious if this isn`t a problem on the black variant. Also, despite the controller being white, the receiver is still black. Just something to note, it would have been nice if it matches the controller and console.
  
  I hope they fix the Action Replay Issue. It is a nice controller and for setups like mine where there`s a distance issue, it`s nearly essential.
