Killscreenâ„¢ launches SFC-1, a Super Famicom-inspired custom controller for PC and PS5 featuring retro 16-bit styling, multicolor face buttons, and optional performance upgrades including TMR Anti-Drift Thumbsticks, Omron powered Mecha Triggersâ„¢, and mechanical face buttons.
LARGO, Fla., June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- â„¢ today announced the launch of SFC-1, a new custom performance controller inspired by the Japanese Super Famicom and the 16-bit era of gaming. Built for PC and PlayStation 5 players, SFC-1 brings the unmistakable visual style of classic Japanese gaming hardware into a modern performance controller.
SFC-1 features a retro SFC-inspired aesthetic with a soft gray body, graphite directional controls, and multicolor face buttons in blue, green, red, and yellow. The design draws from the Japanese Super Famicom console and controller — 16-bit hardware many players in the U.S. first discovered through magazines, import shops, and collector culture.
"Growing up, the Super Famicom always felt like this mysterious, cooler version of the system we got in the U.S.," said Erik at Killscreen. "The gray body, the colored buttons, the shape of the console — it had this completely different energy. It felt like hardware from another world. With SFC-1, we wanted to capture a little bit of that feeling and bring it forward for PC and PS5."
Beyond its retro-inspired design, SFC-1 is available with Killscreen's premium performance upgrade options, including TMR Anti-Drift Thumbsticks for improved precision, durability, and long-term resistance to stick drift. Players can also configure SFC-1 with Mecha Triggersâ„¢, featuring high-performance Omron microswitches for shorter, faster trigger pulls, and mechanical face buttons for crisp, tactile inputs.
SFC-1 is designed for players who want a unique custom controller with a clear connection to gaming history, without giving up modern performance options. Like all Killscreen controllers, SFC-1 can be configured from a clean standard build to a competition-focused setup, giving players the ability to choose the controller that fits how they play.
The release continues Killscreen's growing line of retro-inspired modern gaming hardware, following previous controllers that reimagine classic PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo-era design cues for today's players.
The is available now exclusively at killscreen.io.
