I can’t find any that connect to the original consoles does any one know of a controller and have a link thanks.
NES Wireless Gamepad
Buttons - Using the same layout as the original NES controller (which is the only true layout) the microswitch buttons instead of rubber pads give a consistent feel. Extra attention was put into the dpad to get great diagonals without accidental presses.
Battery - The internal lipo battery charges over USB and lasts over 100 hours. The gamepad goes to sleep after a few minutes of inactivity so you don't have to worry about it being left on. To charge just plug in the USB cable! Dead batteries will need 4-6+ hours of charging time before they are ready for the next marathon.
Adjustable Turbo - Need a little help in 1942? Set the turbo rate for A and B separately to get the best firing speed, like the Advantage. Hold down A or B, then press Turbo + or - to adjust the rate.
Four Players - If you have friends, they can play too! If not, go find some to play Contra. Use up to four gamepads at a time.
Latency - Sorry you can't blame the equipment for your poor playing. We tested with top Tetris players to figure out the point where they can notice input lag, then optimized the gamepad to be under that level. This is one of the main reasons bluetooth is not used.
Distance - Rooms are much bigger than they were in the 80s, and this gamepad keeps up. By the time you are out of range you won't be able to see your TV anymore.

I think it's noteworthy to mention that 8bitdo's custom 2.4ghz wireless is relatively better than their Bluetooth receivers in regards to latency. As a sidenote, stock NES/SNES/etc. wired controllers typically have 6-8ms of lag.

8bitdo controllers are terrible due to crappy dpads. They're actually designed that way and feel totally different from a regular controller in that respect and are nigh on useless for certain games.
With a bit of DIY you can create a far more authentic experience using the real pads:

8bitdo makes Bluetooth receivers for both the SNES, NES, and Genesis.
They allow you to use any 8bitdo Bluetooth controller, Xbox Bluetooth, PS3, PS4, Wii U Pro, Joycon, and Switch Pro controllers.
And if you want a truly authentic experience, they also make conversion kits for your original NES/SNES controllers (And other consoles)
