nes_usb_controller

This could not have come at a better time…well, for me anyway. I’ve been doing a lot of research on (read: using this blog as an excuse to play) the fan-made NES games widely available online. I’d been fully prepared to try them out with the keyboard controls, but with this…maybe I don’t have to?

The retro NES Controller is USB powered and available for $29.99.
