My NES Pad took such punishment from playing Mario! If these adapters ever become a sensible price (less than £7) I may pick one up - would be nice to use such a classic controller again.

The classic controller is just the like Snes pad, and the Wiimotes just like a Nes pad so what the point in paying out for wired controllers?

sometimes the pricey one works better. I know for a fact that happens with the PS2 to usb one's.

You know what your right..! I own two new in the box SNES controllers and One new in the box NES plus 1 used controller. I'm there. Now all I need are Genesis and TurboGrafx16 adaptors since I own controllers for these systems too. I collect systems and own all classic systems.
Great find thanks.. I added the site to my favorites.

What country is that currency from? Several countries use the dollar, but the exchange rates are different.

If they came out with one for the N64 I'd buy it pretty much on the spot

Very cool. I'll finally be able to squeeze some extra use out of my SNES controllers
