Arcade and Retro USB Controllers for PC, Raspberry Pi and Emulators

Welcome to the arcade and retro USB controllers section at OmniRetro. Here you will find the best controllers to connect directly to your PC, laptop or Raspberry Pi and enjoy your favourite emulators with the authenticity of classic hardware.

USB controllers for emulators: play how you always wanted

If you use Recalbox, Batocera, RetroPie or any PC emulator like RetroArch, MAME or Dolphin, you know that the controller makes all the difference. Nothing beats the feeling of holding a controller with the same design you used as a child. Our retro USB controllers are Plug & Play compatible: connect them and start playing, without installing drivers or configuring anything.
