I remember we bought a third-party controller as an extra for our SNES back when that was a current system, but don’t remember the brand. We got it because it was less expensive than an official controller, but it also quickly became noticeably less reliable.
Were any ever good? Is somebody making good ones now for old systems?
Retro-bit, Retro Fighters, and Krikzz are a few more manufacturers I can think of making controllers with original ports.
In particular, Retro-bit’s Saturn Pro pad is…interesting, let’s say. I have also used Retro Fighters Striker Dreamcast pads - they’re quite nice.
In yonder days, a few companies like ASCII and Hori come up a lot for reliable stuff.
