I can not see how a company can let this controller pass any sort of testing phase. Oh I guess I can. Greed.
I purchased 3 of these to use with various setups. I am very familiar with the feel of the original SNES controller and have gamed all my life since the SNES was introduced into the world. I am a speedrunner, bla bla bla. Basically I know a little something about oldschool gaming.
These are totally worthless to anyone who wants a reliable controller for gaming. I don't know what these could actually be realistically used for. All 3 gamepads would send you all over the place in directions you don't want to go. You would just stop where you stood. Suddenly you would just start running for no reason. Horrible. One gamepad in particular's start button sunk right inside of the controller within 20 minutes of use. I am not a monkey with my controllers. I treat them with respect because it's getting harder to find reliable used original SNES controllers. These controllers are trash. Absolute garbage. I tried these on different machines with the same results for all 3. Maybe I was sold counterfeit products. But the box said Tomee and the controllers looked like a Tomee product. I bought these from Amazon and I am in the process of returning these wastes of plastic. I don't even know what kind of player could gain anything from using these. The most casual of players would be angered by the results imo. The worst D-Pad I have ever encountered in the modern world.

When I ordered the Tomee brand gamepad, I was sent one from a company called GTron. The controller looks the same, at least.
The D-pad and face buttons work really well, as I put them through a rigorous session of a Super Mario World romhack. My hands even felt better after playing than they did when I used my Xbox 360 controller, so that's great.
The controller feels cheap and a little loose if you shake it around, but for the cost I think that's a fair trade.
Out of the box, the L-trigger worked once, and then never again. Something inside the controller feels like it slipped out of place and the trigger isn't clicking like the right trigger does. I could probably open it up and poke around. I will overlook it since the games I'm playing right now don't need the L-trigger, so I'll deal with this later.
UPDATE: Increased my rating to 4 stars. I opened the controller and was easily able to fix the problem I was having with my L trigger. A contact point for the button had slipped out of place so that it wasn't registering. After days of use, the gamepad remains comfy for the price.

MAC Users: I am using this with a mid-2014 MacBook PRO Retina model, so, a pretty new one. I downloaded Open Emu for MAC and connected the controller, the mac does NOTHING when you connect the controller, however, when you go to Open Emu preferences you see the controller there and can assign the buttons (have to do it the first time), it shows on the controller list as a 11-button controller or something similar and it works.
I repeat, do not expect the mac to do anything when you connect it, you make the configuration through the emulator.
Having said that...the controller is not great, the buttons are not great either but it works. I played Mario with my son, I used this controller and he used a Wii controller (which, I didnt know, Open Emu allows you to connect as well), and trying them both, I noticed the response of the wii control was far better than the response of this one, albeit the wii connecting wirelessly.
So, for 10 bucks, its not bad, but dont expect the same quality as a SNES controller.
If you have doubts ,respond to this review, I'll help out.

I ordered the Tomee SNES controller last week and it is slightly worse than the OEM controller in my opinion. The D-Pad is kind of sharp (might damage fingers if playing long) and has a sticky unpleasing wobbly action, also not all of the directions feel the same, maybe the board is flexing under the buttons??? The ABXY buttons were the right colors and felt nice. The shoulder buttons felt OEM. The start & select buttons are plastic. There is an ugly place on the front of the controller where the manufacturer logo should be but its blank. The controller has no info about manufacturer, for all I know its counterfeit. The grey color of the controller is not the correct color compared to OEM, though this is unimportant. The plastic seems to be a lighter weight than the OEM controller making it feel cheap overall. If the D-Pad was better I would recommend this, it is passable but not great. Much better than the Retro Link line of controllers. I am a stickler for ergonomics so I tend to judge things more harshly than others.
I ended up buying the iBuffalo controller a few days later, and it is actually better than the OEM controller. The iBuffalo follows the Jap/Euro color scheme and feels OEM, except the D-Pad and Shoulder buttons actually feel better than OEM. So I would recommend spending a few more bucks on the iBuffalo.

Excellent Joypad for USB
Reviewed in Canada on August 12, 2017Verified Purchase
This gamepad resembles the original, minus the logos and such, it plugged into my Windows PC and was immediately Recognized and installed, i have no complaints here! Half a year later it is still functioning and working properly. It is recognized in RetroArch and EmulationStation you just need to set it up a bit and or save custom controller/emulator engine config files.

Compre dos controles y uno se descompuso al mes de uso. Además al presionar las flechas se mueve hacia otras direcciones no hacia dónde estás presionando. Producto de mala calidad.

No deja de ser un tipo de fabricación puramente china. La respues de los botones quizas algo mejor que los otros modelos, pero no para valer el doble que otros mandos.
