    Default SNES to PC Converter

    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.

    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.

    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?
