Old-school controller adapter(s)
Boz:
I shudder to think of the responses and flames I might get to this question. I'd like to use old school controllers to play the non-Mame emulated games I have (NES, 2600, Sega Genesis, etc.) from my Mame cab. I found the site for hacking an NES controller into USB, but would rather purchase plug-in adapters for these controllers instead of ripping them apart and soldering.
Links appreciated.

I bought my parents a USB NES controller and a USB SNES controller for Christmas a couple years back.

They work great and are very authentic. If you have your own controllers, you can go with the port option and just plug them in via USB.

Aside from the fact that the link you provided was exactly what I was looking for, you just said you bought these for your parents.
I feel old today for the first time in my life.
May you burn in hell. ;D
EDIT: I think the joke should be obvious, but to make sure. I'm joking with you. Made me laugh.

Ah, you let yourself be old. And, hey, are you aware of the C@C meet on the 19th?

You're never too old.
