    Smile Best wireless controller for Nes

    What do you think the best wireless controllers are for the Nes. I've seen a couple different types and am wondering which is the best. If you have some what do you think about, weight, battery life, comfort, signal strength, distance you can sit away, what type of batteries it uses. Can you do 2 players. Does the receiver need batteries? etc etc

    I'm not sure about the best, but I can say from experience that I hated the Ack-Lame...uhh...Acclaim remote controller. I bought one from Gamestop when they were still selling this stuff and I was on the bed playing it, which was no more than about 8 or 9 feet away and it wouldn't register right(they advertised 30 feet). Sometimes, you had to be literally right in front of the damn thing. Needless to say, I went right back to the regular controller.

    Yeah, those Acclaim controllers were ass. I had a pair that wouldn't register even when I held the controller right up to the receiver.

    They went right back to Kay B's.

    Possibility is infinity! You must be satisfied!

    The Aklaim ones are the black and blue omes? What about the other ones? Anyone have them? What do you think?

    id stick with wired controllers :< and the play messiah ones are ass too, not because of the receiving range but because whoever thought removing the d-pad and putting that stupid... DISK THING... or whatever the hell it is... musta been on something. I mean damn who has every used that? I could see an analog but that thing is terrible.

    Good idea

    Terrible Implementation.

    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.

    Yes.

    Remember that those things aren't even worth the plastic they are made of.
