Well, I can't find mine. :(

I dug through all my boxes from my recent move, and the SNES to PC converter that I had and used all the time -- it plugged into the PC's Printer port, and I attached a real SNES controller to it -- has vanished.

And I've had it for so long, I don't recall where the heck I got it from. :angry:

Can anyone help me find another one?

At least I found my NES, Genesis, and PlayStation converters.

This one may be better...plugs in through USB.

I guess $20 is'nt that bad, but I recall I paid much less for the one I 'lost'.

Still, thanks for the link.

I really recommend the following controller:

The guy does fabulous work with all old controllers.

I bought 4 from lik sang and at least 1 is not working. I actually think that 2 of them do not work.

And since I upgraded to windows xp sp2 none of them work. 2 were working before that. I think it might have something to do with snes9x or windows xp reading through usb. I tried it on zsnes and it did not work either. So no more snes on pc for me. :(

My digital camera seems to be acting funny when I hook it up through usb too.

Whatever you do, STAY AWAY FROM RETROZONE!!! He took 4 months to get me my NES controller, and kept sending me stupid excuses. This has happened to some of my friends as well. I think he's some kid or something like that.

Must be a smart kid if hes writing code for microcontrollers.

What code? He installs an IC and wires it up... I have no idea where code is involved.

Yeah, I'm running Win XP updated.

I'll keep looking and see what else I can find.

Someone on here made me my NES-PC Converter -- does anyone here do that work for the SNES?
