Just snagged mine lastnight after seeing this thread. The Target I went to informed me they had pallets of them in the back so ask if you dont see any on the store floor. They told me Nintendo got their shit together and are flooding the market now.20180630_110453 (resized).jpg

Yep. Love Amazon.

Got that, 2 extension cables and a carrying case all for about $110. Extension cables for the SNES are interchangeable with the NES controllers.

Extra NES controllers on eBay for $9.

We'll see soon. Hopefully it'll foot the bill. I ain't paying $40 for a gamepad. Buncha bullshit to charge people that much.

"When" is the key word.

I'm about to leave my fiancee and stepson for a month for military reasons. I want them to have the ability to play 2 player NES games while I'm gone. If that means a generic controller is my only option due to the actual Nintendo controllers being sold out, then that's what I got to roll the dice on.

Is what it is : ). If it doesn't work out, I'll buy an actual one when Nintendo actually ramps production up.

Guys, the European SNES has the USB power cable, but if you want to hook it up to the wall power, you will need the USB to AC power adapter. Can buy them on Amazon or eBay all day long. Can get them for about $9 on Amazon. Luckily, I had an extra.

So, this myth is debunked. Played with the "x brand " controller lastnight. Felt absolutely wonderful. No errors, problems, erroneous movements.....everything was absolutely perfect.

Buy with the link i provided with confidence. Or pay $40 for one on Amazon. This $9 controller performs just as well as the "official Nintendo" ones. At least the one I got... !
