Best wireless controller for Nes

[heybtbm]

The disc isn't that bad on the Messiah controllers. I was pissed when I first saw it, but it grew on me (kind of). All in all though, I still use the original wired controller whenever I pop in an old NES cartridge.

I gave up hope of finding a decent wireless controller for the NES. Instead I picked up an extension cable so I can sit where I like in the room.

The PS2/Xbox/GC era is when wireless controllers actually became worth the price. And not coincidentally I own a wireless for each system.

In their defense, the Advantage-like wireless stick Messiah put out was pretty dang sweet. I only wish they still sold the wireless adapters for the original NES deck so I could use the stick I had.

Indeed, they were quite nice, but in counter-defense. It wasn't really hard to make it something like that, especially when they had the wireless technology for the NES in place. And it was still a terrible idea to put the atrocity of a controller.

It lacks any sort of precision, and it definitely starts to wear on your fingers after long periods of time playing with it Good luck playing puzzle games




Honestly I wouldn't be so against it if they didn't already have a perfectly fine original, I mean WHY did they have to change it. Was it copyright or something, couldn't they at least have put an analog stick of sorts (like wavebird analog). I mean that seems to be like the worst possible choice to tack onto an nes controller to me. I just can't figure out why they did it I wanted awesome NES/SNES wireless (2.4ghz not IR controllers.) And they failed to deliver, and it was my only chance So really they dashed my dreams ;p

On that note does anyone want to buy a messiah wireless snes controller :P? Just 1 (but you can have the second dongle if u want, don't ask what happened to the controller.) for $10 shipped!

Sorry yoshi I no longer have the nes dongles otherwise I'd deffo let you have at em Supposedly your supposed to be able to call them and get some, but they don't answer the phone or anything.... I think the company hit a real tough spot.

Call me crazy, but I don't think the NES controller ports output enough voltage to support a 2.4GHz wireless receiver.

Oh, and RASK, you could just get an NES Satellite.

[Push Upstairs]

External power supply.

Problem solved!

[dao2]

it didn't have an external powersupply ;p and I dunno beta... but they had em :P

I'm quite partial to my NES Satellite. Had it for years, hasnt failed me yet.

Those Acclaim Doube Controllers on the other hand, oh god they suck
