So if they are charging way extra for shipping and not doing a discount on multiple then the $18 price is just for show. Hard to get on board if the company is gonna try to play games.

Biggest issue though is the reviewer mentioned lag. Nothing kills playing games like controller lag

The lag you're referencing actually comes from connecting the controller via Bluetooth directly to Anbernic's own handheld products so it's not really a widespread issue.

I hate how Sony and Microsoft control their wireless controller markets.

Anbernic is selling for $15, but $10 or so for shipping, so if youre buying multiple its a better deal.

I literally just bought myself an 8Bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller last week and the week prior, I ordered the GuliKit ZEN PRO Wireless Gaming Controller using my Dell award points that were a/b to expire on 10/15 so it's a hard pass for me on the RG P01. Both controllers contain Hall effects sensor joysticks, but their prices start at $50 each... Sheesh.

Controller seems poised to take over the market according to early reviews. Hell the worst I've heard so far is the PITA to switch RBG lighting...seems too good for the price point but if you think about it. Controllers have been overpriced for some time now and this brings it back to the run to GameStop and grab the "player 2 here you go" halcyon days of glory.

Are there any latency tests on this controller yet? I bought the 8bitdo Ultimate 2C as it has excellent latency, but won't arrive for 3 more weeks.

Any time! I was recommended the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C in the Woot thread for the SteelSeries Stratus Duo controller the other day; but this one's looking interesting to me as well. Still haven't decided. Glad to help Smilie
