8-bitdo's wireless NES controller adapter

Use any bluetooth controller on your NES. The best part...it powers directly from the NES controller port.  :)

Neat little product. I already own their Bluetooth NES controller. I'm really loving what 8-bitdo is making these days.

Wow, that is really slick. I've wanted something like this for some time. I can't find any pricing info though?

I'd even forgo a different style of controller personally, I'm excited about the prospect of (through conversion or just clones) using a bt nes-style controller on the actual nes.  :cheers:

Looks like it will be $20. According to the bottom of this page.

Remember, these are the same guys that are trying to sell people the $500  hacked up NES.  On a totally unrelated note I have some swamp land in Florida for sale if anyone is interested.

analogue.co may be RE-selling it...but 8bitdo is manufacturing it. analogue.co just happens to be the only gig selling the adapter right now. (that I can find)

It's only a matter of time before it winds up with reputable sellers on amazon.
