Elevate your classic gamepads to USB capabilities with Reflex CTRL! Boasting the quickest response times of any USB controller available commercially, Reflex CTRL all but eliminates dropped inputs. Featuring the highly versatile, upgradeable, and customizable GP2040-CE firmware, your gaming will never be the same!

How it works

CTRL boards are PCB replacements with a short USB-C female pigtail cable. Unscrew your controller, remove the OEM circuit board, optionally replace the rubber membranes (coming in 2024?), fit the Reflex CTRL PCB, route the USB-C Female cable, and re-assemble the controller. Users provide their own USB-C cable.

          Probably the best way to use an SNES controller over USB

          Its an easy installation and works great. I confused myself a little on the initial firmware setup but it's been very easy since then. Being able to switch between Xinput/Dinput/Switch modes very easily is very convenient and I like the design with the short connector cord, pairs well with the braided USB A to C cables sold here. Eagerly awaiting the Genesis version.

          An exciting reflex product!

          This conversion kit is the real deal. Installation on one of my spare Super Famicom controllers took no time, and it worked right out of the gate with the MiSTer, no fiddling required. I know there is a miniscule difference compared with SNAC/SNAX, but I honestly can't tell. The feel of an original controller with the ability to engage with MiSTer's OSD is pretty great. I can't wait for other Reflex CTRL devices to be developed and released!

          SNES and beyond.

          Love the product. The SNES Ctrl is well constructed and works as intended. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves their SNES controllers and wants to use them with multiple systems.

          Easy swap, works great 👍

          I had a broken Super Famicom controller in my parts bin. The swap to the reflex was pretty simple. I had to fiddle quite a bit with the shoulder buttons/membranes, but that's more to do with Nintendo's design than the Reflex. Once I got it back together I plugged it into my Mister and it worked first try with no firmware update. I haven't tried it with other consoles, but for Mister, this is perfect. Looking forward to the Sega versions.
