4 NES Controllers
kinu64:
Actually, there were a couple of games that support 4 player on NES.
NES Play Action Football
Off Road
Kings of the Beach
Not many but there are some.

Yea offroad was one of my NES favorites. I wonder why there's support for 5 NES controllers in DPadPro if no gaes used 5 controllers *shrug*
Has anyone actually connected 4 NES controllers w/o the FourScore???

Basically, the support is there because it could be done within the capabilities of the parallel port. NES game support doesn't have much to do with it. Of course, you could use the NES controllers for TG-16 games... Five players is perfect for Bomberman.
To connect four gamepads to the parallel port, use the wiring diagram for five but leave one of them out. :)
I haven't successfully used DPadPro. I tried once, like five years ago, couldn't get it to work, then discovered the joys of USB gamepads and haven't looked back. Maybe you'll fare better.

Wow. I feel stupid. I've been searching all over the place for how to hook up 4 NES controllers but when I look for 5 I find DPadPro's site that I didn't even realize had the instructions for 1,2,3,4, or 5 controllers. Thx for the info! =D

Could you send me the info for the snes. I did the usb conversion for my nes, now need a way to do my snes. The parallel idea may be a cheaper route.
