From placing the order to me receiving the item it was literally 4 days. the adapter came in a small retail box in a simple padded manilla envelope. there were no marks or damage whatsoever to either the envelope or the box. I was given no reason to contact the company so I do not have an opinion on the customer service, but if the other reviews are anything to go on I imagine it is fantastic.
Product: 5 Stars
My original plan was not to use this to connect to a PS3 but to a PC so that is what this review is for.
While researching the different PS2 controller adapters I noticed that there wasn't much of a standard, so I simply picked one that was not only cheap in price but also seemed (from the reviews) of high quality. The design of this adapter is simple choosing function over form. the product is the same black color as the controllers i have, and the thickness/strength of the cable and plastic is strangely identical to that of the original controller and plug, which is a wonderful surprise. the adapter connects to the controller smoothly and tightly with no play between the two. the usb end of the adapter seems pretty standard but nonetheless connects to my laptop tightly with no play. The cable between the female plug and the usb male is very short in length, only about 1 1/2". I personally don't believe you could need more length than this as the controller cable is plenty long enough, if you need a 20ft cable for your controller I think you should consider moving the couch a little closer to the t.v.
I am running an HP 530 Laptop and Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
I decided at first to connect the adapter to the controller before connecting the adapter to the laptop. after later experimenting I found that it makes no difference what you connect first, my laptop actually detected the adapter alone. upon connecting the adapter to the laptop, win 7 automatically installed a driver and the device was labeled "USB input device". This took all of 10 secs, and once this had finished I decided to try it out. The program I used for the initial test was ePSXe to play a PSX Game. The emulator detected the controller input no problem. I was able to assign all the buttons on the controller to various buttons in the emulator. During gameplay everything worked great, There was no lag in button presses at all no matter how fast paced the button mashing was. After this I tried several different emulators all of which had no issues with detection or lag whatsoever. PC games on the other hand were more difficult to use the controller with as most of the games I have do not have native support of gamepads, but this is a fault with the software not the adapter in any way. this problem is easily solved though using software such as Joy2Key or Pinnacle Game Profiler.
Conclusion: 5 Stars
If you are looking for a low priced high quality adapter to connect your PS2 controller to a pc, look no further, this will satisfy without a doubt.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2017I purchased these adapters specifically for using them in a DIY Retro-Pi setup. This device had no issues with interfacing with original Sony controllers, or the Raspberry Pi 3. I did not connect these to anything else.
I did not use the plastic controller port, nor did I use the USB connector on the end for my build. I opted to use the controller board to connect directly to the USB pins on the Pi, as well as the PCB for the PS-ONE.
The version that I received had a small "brick" on the cable, which is where all of the components were housed. The housing came apart with a gentle bit of force, and it revealed a rectangular connector that I could now use for directly solder connections to. I preferred this configuration, as my build reused the original controller ports on the front of the PS-ONE, and I needed to save as much space as possible inside. Those PS-ONES are small. Everything barely fits, but it does!
I did use a multi-meter to check for what connector went to what part of the board, as well as what connector went to what pin on the USB cable, as I don't trust any products to lay things out in a way that makes sense. Once I knew my pin-outs, I soldered everything up, and turned it on without any additional software or configuration. I was prompted on startup of EmulationStation to map the controller buttons, and after that, everything just "worked".
Do note, that you will have power to the other controller port, but you won't be able to use two controllers with only one adapter. If you want to use both, you will need to cut the traces in between the two ports on the PS-ONE board. Just because the controller lights up, doesn't mean that the adapter is going to magically support two controllers being connected at the same time. For my build, I only needed a single controller, and this works perfectly. If I wanted to add a controller, I would still use this product, as the controller section is smaller and easier to work with than the larger V shaped dual controller options. It would be easier to have two separate PCB's with connections that are rectangular than a weird V shape. The above statement only applies if you go the same route as me with my build. If you are using the adapter by itself or are directly plugging in your controllers to the original connector attached to the cable, ignore this.
I'll be purchasing this same item again when it comes time to make another Pi-Station, as I know that this is the perfect part for the job.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2025Does not work. Cheaply made product. Look elsewhere.
PC detects when inserted into USB slot.
Box the cable came in contained a 3rd party sticker with a QR code to scan for the drivers with only "Driver Download" written on the sticker. Not comfortable scanning a random QR code that may or may not redirect to a legitimate site.

DahliaReviewed in Canada on February 17, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Plug and Play for my WIRED Guitar Hero controller.
They provide you with drivers. It's on a google doc and looks sketchy, but it is safe. Sometimes the drivers are needed, sometimes it's worse to have them, it's really easy to install and uninstall to suite your needs. (Installs quickly and just appears in programs and features or in your windows search bar to right click uninstall. No need to go searching for files.)
My guitar hero controller is a GH2 wired controller for PS2 and it works well. There's the occasional issue but this is because my controller is old and well loved (aka, well abused and used.) and NOT the adapters fault.
My wireless guitar hero PS2 controller DOES NOT WORK, but this very well might be the receiver as they are known to go bad and it is old and has been in storage for years.. And I cannot find the receiver for my other two wireless ones to try. So I'm not taking that into account for my overall rating. It would only work for a second at a time then cut out again, flashing on and off. Red light was steady however, so it might not have been the adapter. Just thought I should mention this, just in case.

I am very disappointed that the cable didn't work with the guitar hero guitar controller for ps2 on my ps3 to play a guitar hero game, just a few buttons worked, but its was only the blue and orange button. If you are gonna this cable to play guitar hero on ps3 with ps2 guitar hero guitar controller, don't buy this, you are gonna get scammed.
