Any good new SNES controllers with original style controller plugs? Hyperkin?

I’m using the Hyperkin Scout via SNAC and have had good results thus far — love the low latency and they feel pretty much as I remember.

8bitdo makes some really good controllers and I love my NES30 and Brawler64. They do make wireless controllers that are compatible with original hardware and should work with SNAC.

Amazon has tons of off-brand wired and wireless controllers, but YMMV. Ebay is always an option for used controllers and there are button and pad kits to refurbish them, but at that point you're creeping up on the $40 for the 8bitdo controller.
