New n64 bluetooth controller

RedXIV

Hey folks, looking for advice here.

The auld lad is gone heavily into emulation machines as he's got into retirement which is hilarious and delightful.
He's finding it tough though playing n64 games mapped to the controllers he has (either an xbox one or using a handheld machine like the retroid)

He was saying he'd love a bluetooth version of the original n64 controller and was thinking this could be an ideal xmas present.
Do any of ye know if the new NSO N64 controller can hook up to any device that supports bluetooth? (he does the majority of his gaming on the retroid which does work well with other bluetooth devices)

Or if there is a good third party alternative that can be used with bluetooth, I'd be happy to look at options? Ideally something that can be shipped to me before Xmas though :D

Cheers!

Check a couple YouTube videos and they seem to suggest it does

No personal experience with it though.

Amazon reviews might have answers as well

They're bluetooth, you can even get a bluetooth receiver for your original N64 and use it with that.

Yeah I saw a comment on this reddit post which seems to suggest that it works nicely with retroid machines and needs minimal effort to pair, but that's the only thing I've found online so far and hoping some of my fellow boardsies had thoughts :D
