Retro gamers were raving about the Nintendo NES Classic Edition over the course of the recently concluded holiday season. Now that the Nintendo Mini NES has officially returned to the gaming scene, it is still safe to bet that most of the gamers that appreciate 80's 8-bit gaming still do not own retro console yet since it's still very difficult to obtain.

The retro console reboot has been hot and in-demand ever since it was officially launched and people who already own it will agree that it has only one big flaw: very short controller wires.

One Big problem for the NES Mini

The cable for the NES Classic Edition's controller that connects towards the main console is just a minimal 2 and a half feet long. This would imply that if someone sets the Nintendo Mini NES console up on a big screen, the user would either sit way too close to the TV or would be needing a long HDMI cable in order for it to be setup from a distance.

The Solution to the Problem

Ever since this made headlines over the internet, several people have been posting their solutions for the problem. But most people are leaning on towards a wireless solution that is also available.

8Bitdo's NES30 Classic Edition Wireless Controller Set would solve the short-ranged default controller cords and give gamers the freedom to sit anywhere they want in the room and play any NES classic games.

About the NES Bluetooth controller

The Nintendo NES Classic Edition Bluetooth controllers are connected via plugging in the receiver on the base console while it's turned off. When done, the start button from the wireless controller should then be pressed for 3 seconds then followed-up by pressing the orange button on the receiver.

This will then initiate the pairing. It is also good to note that the NES30 Classic Edition Wireless Controller can also be paired up with next generation consoles.
