Product Description Generation NEX Wireless Controllers add a whole new level of excitement and control to your Generation NEX. Play up to 40 hours on two AAA batteries (included). Don't worry you forget to turn off your controllers, they will automatically power down for you after 10 minutes of inactivity. Micro-switch technology included in the buttons and d-pad give precision control unlike any controller previously made for classic gaming.
Customer Reviews: Caveat EmptorApril 19, 2008 Mitherial(Maryland, USA) 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
This version of these controllers *only work with Messiah Entertainment's NEX* console and do *not* include RF receivers if you already have an original NES; the Generation NEX "NES" console actually looks pretty cool, but I wanted to use these controllers with my original NES. I can't test the controllers themselves, but reviews about the net seem generally positive about how they work (in spite of the funny 360 degree D-pad).
The box claims that RF receivers (that plug into the original NES controller slots) are available to purchase separately, but I can't find them available online anywhere (including the company website); I will call and ask the company about them.
The "limited edition" lunch-pail set version does come with the RF receivers, but is currently sold-out.
***UPDATE***
Messiah Entertainment tells me that they no longer make these receivers so *ONLY BUY THIS IF YOU HAVE A GENERATION NEX CONSOLE; WILL NOT WORK WITH AN ORIGINAL NES.
