I was about to buy one online,but luckily i read user reviews and found out that there are a lot of cheap knock offs with crappy buttons and short cords. So how long is the original snes controller cords?

Just from memory and without actually measuring I think they were six feet. And not to nitpick but it's "cord" not "chord".
"What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk... Have at you!"

6 feet sounds about right, I have one in front of me, and its pretty long.
yea 90% of the snes controllers in circulation are yobos. short cords cheap plastic-y feel, seems so sharp they could cut diamonds, and about 2 feet of cord to work with. Whats worse the box they sell in looks surprisingly legitimate i picked up 2 of these by mistake to replace the 2 black yobos that had come with my fc twin lol.
For lucky best wash, use Mr. Sparkle.

I pulled one out, and it is about 8 feet.
I always wanted to fix the worn out buttons, because the controllers are so much better than those third party pieces of crap (including the short cord).
<Evan_G> i keep my games in an inaccessable crate where i can't play them
Fun fact: the super famicom came with both 3ft and 6ft "chord" variations.
lol yes i meant cord not chord. Yea the fake one almost tricked me, on amazon it shows a snes controller box and they say that they have new ones. It did sound too good to be true, so I decided to read user reviews and happy I did.
Also are there snes cord extenders? because 6 feet is still kind of short.

It does not matter how long it is. Just get a wireless controller or extension cable ( which I still don't know how they work with the 5V flowing threw them ).
I have SNES controllers that is unofficial brand and they seem to be longer then the original brand.
think you might be a little off. ever snes came with 2 controllers i think. not to mention all the extra ones that were sold. i never mistook yobo one for snes. see more real ones then knockoff where i am. it says super Nintendo entertainment system right on the front. i only seen that on the real ones now. not many clones use the 2 kinds of purple in the US from what i see. they use the multicolored ones more that you see in other countries.
about the cords i kinda wish they were longer. i have to move about every system closer that i want to play because too short. i have extension cords on the dreamcast and ps2. have the dominator master controller wireless controller made by nexoft that i plug the nes controllers into to play it.
sorry bringing back old topic. didn't look at the date.

I found one on e-bay for around $3 that gives me 12ft
http://www.amazon.com/Foot-Controlle...1932776&sr=8-1
You can get this 6 ft extention for 8 bucks including shipping. Just scroll down in the seller list to find the cheaper price. Might want to check ebay too then.

Yea but buying a new controller wont make it any longer lol. It sucks I know, but if you want a longer wire you gotta get ripped off once to buy it. You would have thought that the companies who made the systems would have produced these wire extensions but that is never the case, so they are hard to find.

Just buy controller extension cords.
well yeah but they use usb cables which are cheap and don't need to get another controller to do that now. you can get 10-15 foot cables from any place. from $2-$10 depending on where you look. they could be more but who would want to spend more. i suggest looking at http://www.monoprice.com/products/se...le&keyword=usb
lets see $60 for another controller or $2-$3 for 10 foot cable. i don't know how you can play a ps3 long enough to runt he battery down anyways. i heard the battery lasts upto 20-25 hours usually. think the newer ones might last longer because they shut off when not being used too. if you are playing that long straight you should be taking a break now. sorry but there is no argument in that link i gave which was why i don't know how it got to be so many pages long.
ok quoting because said it better then i could.
