Retro-Bit have just opened pre-orders on a “pro” version of their wireless 2.4GHz RF Saturn controller, that include “Hall Effect” analog control sticks that will act as the Saturn’s 3D Control Pad when enabled. It comes in a choice of black or white and also comes with two receivers: One for original Saturn consoles and another for USB devices such as the MiSTer and Nintendo Switch. The price is $50 and it’s due to ship in December:
