8BitDo have partnered with Analogue to develop a wireless experience for your original Nintendo Entertainment System. The Retro Receiver is a Bluetooth receiver that you plug into your original NES. It allows you to play wirelessly with any original NES model and even other aftermarket NES such as Analogue Nt. No more wires to trip over, sit back and enjoy responsive wireless gameplay using your favourite controller. These also double as a receiver for using the supported controllers on your Windows PC, simply connect using the included cable and use your favourite controller for PC gaming.
Note: Xbox Bluetooth controllers on the latest firmware released in Sep, 2021 are NOT supported, due to their bluetooth firmware change from Classic to BLE. Other products which are affected by this change also include: USB Adapter, USB Adapter for PS classic, NES Receiver, Classic Receiver & MD Receiver.
