Title: [WTB] USB Game Controller (NES/SNES)
Post by: lolwut on June 04, 2012, 07:59:50 PM
I want to play some roms on my mac. I'm looking for something that will:

A) Work on mac
B) Feel like the nes/snes controllers we know and love
C) Function just like the original would.

Also if anyone has any USA rom dumps, i'd love to take them off your hands.

Something like this? http://www.amazon.com/RetroLink-NES-Classic-USB-Controller/dp/B005Y5NO4U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1338862535&sr=8-2

Best place for rom dumps is good ole' torrents. Can probably get every single nes rom in one big compressed file.

To be honest, I've never liked any third-party controllers, especially for classics like the NES and SNES.  I'd highly suggest getting an original NES and SNES controller off eBay (maybe Amazon if they're selling used ones) and then use a separate USB adapter.  Specifically look into these two items:

http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Smartjoy-PC-Controller-Adapter-Converter/dp/B0009VIZSY/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1338930215&sr=8-6

I don't think you're gonna find many people willing to sell theirs for Bitcoins (I know I'm not, heh)
