Play Controller Test Online

Game Overview

Ever dug out an old NES controller from a dusty box and wondered if it still works? Controller Test is basically that moment turned into a game—or, well, more of a digital toy. You press buttons, and the screen lights up with these chunky, colorful responses. No points, no levels, just pure button-mashing satisfaction.

It’s not exactly thrilling, but there’s something weirdly hypnotic about watching each input register. The D-pad makes little arrows blink, Start/Select flash like traffic lights, and the A/B buttons light up in this satisfyingly retro way. I’ve definitely spent way too long just rapidly tapping buttons to see the screen go nuts.

Honestly, it’s more fun than it has any right to be—especially if you’re the type who gets weirdly nostalgic for the *click* of an old NES pad. It’s like a love letter to the simplest joy of gaming: making something happen by pressing a button.
