      Hi guys, I recenly (by mistake), bought a 8bitdo, SNES controller (wireless 2.4ghz) but with a 2.4Ghz receiver which I recenly noticed that the connector is something like "SN30 or SFC3.0), I thought initially that it was a usb port.

      My question is, does raspberry or retropie recognize 2.4ghz devices (that require a dongle)?
      If not..., can I buy a 2.4ghz usb adapter to replace the one the controller came with?

      This is the controller I bought in amazon. alt text

      This is the adapter it came: alt text

      The adapter i 'm refering (in case it would work with this) is similar to this (the one at the right, USB ADAPTER for PC, Android):

      Also, just in case what should I see? frequency?

      Thanks a lot in advance.

        @panamanian AFAIK this kind of wireless adapters are not something standard, but vendor specific - you'll not be able to use them inter-changeably. If you want to keep the controller, better get a SNES<->USB converter, otherwise return it and get a similar Bluetooth controller.

          @panamanian I think you need to get the 8Bitdo Wireless USB Adapter

          Please someone correct me if I'm wrong?

          Edit: No. I was wrong.

          That's to bad. Wish they would release a USB Adapter for the 2.4ghz models.
