SNES Arcade Controllers
« on: March 13, 2004, 11:51:45 am »
Man these things are sweet. ;D I picked up 2 SNES arcade controllers from Ebay instead of buying an adaptor or fooling around to make one. They are all microswitch operated so they can be easily interfaced with an I-PAC.  I have 2 pics to show you what they look like.

P.S. does anyone know where they came from??

Sure, those are from the Nintendo Super System (http://www.klov.com/N/Nintendo_Super_System.html)  It was the predecessor to the Nintendo Playchoice 10.

It could hold 3 games, but most wern't that great.  Mario World and F-Zero were good...and if I remember right, the Tennis game was pretty cool too.

They didn't make very many of them, so they are a little hard to find complete.

I'm pretty sure you meant 'successor.'
