8bitdo makes controllers that I use and recommend. Even have some in the form factor of SNES (that’s what I have).
They work on my Pi arcade emulator really well.

Yes, awesome. I saw them before and totally forgot about it. Thanks.
I have one that's shaped like the SNES, it's pretty good. The only issue I have is sometimes it doesn't connect to my retropi and I have to remove it and reconnect it again.
Oh sweet, I was looking for a good wireless one for snes too. So these work good for n64 and PlayStation too?
They have adapters for their wireless controllers, and I think you can use old controller shells and put new “guts” in to update them… if you have old controllers, of course!
I highly recommend any of their controllers. Build quality and hardware support is amazing.
Seconding 8bitdo!
I got a zero 2 as a joke and it ended up being super comfortable for such a tiny controller. I ended up getting an sn30 pro plus shortly after my Logitech f710 pads died. After a couple years of speed runs I blew out the contact pads and found out that they're ridiculously easy to replace. They use the same pads as the original SNES! I got a pro 2 and retired the pro plus last year, but it's still totally functioning.
