Title: Nintendo Bartop with NES Advantage Sticks
Post by: bratwurst on February 03, 2017, 11:50:11 am

Nintendo classic unavailable in stores?  Inspired by edekoning's amazing bartop (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,133712.0), I built my own using the real controllers from back in the day.

I think I fixed the link, sorry about that.

I used a USB adapter I got on amazon.  Unfortunately they look to be sold out now.  There's a link in the video description at Youtube.
