USB Standard NES Controller


USB modified original NES-004 Controller 10 Foot Black USB Cable

Do you long for the days of the Nintendo Entertainment System? When games didn't have to have crazy graphics to be good games? Games like Mario Brothers, Donkey Kong, and Ninja Gaiden.

You probably already know that you can play these games on your computer. You also probably found very quickly that it is a real pain to play these games with your keyboard, and Microsoft controllers and fancy force feedback thingamajigs either feel totally wrong or just don't work for the game.

For the true retro gaming experience, you need a REAL NES controller. I've completely refurbished your favorite NES controllers and modified them to work on your computer via USB.

NOTE: These controllers work not only with Nintendo games, but with virtually all computer games that can use a joystick (or keyboard with a small [free] program).

If you don't know how to play Nintendo games on your computer, I'll be glad to walk you through the setup process if you buy a controller ;-)

Your bid is a contract. Read this whole page before buying! Ask questions before buying! top

Details

Genuine ORIGINAL Nintendo controller. Model Number: NES-004. Each controller is taken apart, and thoroughly and intricately cleaned. Casings that are broken or rattling, or have major markings or scratches on them are not used. Internal circuit boards that have damaged or worn contacts are not used. Rubber diaphragms are replaced unless the originals are in very, very good condition. No sticky or non-responsive buttons. These controllers look and work almost like new!

No drivers needed! (for Windows 2000 and Windows XP). These controllers do not appear to work on Macintosh computers -- do not buy for use on a Mac! They might work on Windows 98SE, but I give no guarantees on that. This device is a USB 1.1 specified HID game controller. Completely plug-N-play! Automatically recognized by most emulators.

Extra long 10 foot (3 meter) cord. High quality shielded USB 2.0 specified cable -- BLACK for original look and feel.

Each controller goes through a 3-stage testing process and is guaranteed to work for 1 year from date of purchase. See below for details.

Full line of converted Nintendo controllers available: Original [NES-004], Dog Bone (NES2) [NES-039], NES Max [NES-027], and the arcade-style NES Advantage [NES-026]. Check out the Upgrades section below.

You can mix and match as many controllers as you like for simultaneous multiplayer gaming on one PC!

These make GREAT Christmas gifts! top

Upgrades

Any upgrade should be added to the Seller Discount box at checkout. The shipping box should only be altered for the NES Advantage option. Please also include a note for extra clarity.

If you'd like a cosmetically very near mint (top 10%) with all new rubber internal pieces, add $5.

If you'd like your adapter housed in a different controller other than the NES-004 standard controller, I offer several solutions. I do not make any extra money on these; they are just available for customers who happen to want them:

USB NES Max

NES MAX. Add $2. These are very hard to modify!

USB Dogbone ControllerDogbone Controller (from the top-loading NES2 system). Add $5. Hard to find! Rare!

USB NES AdvantageNES Advantage arcade style joystick. Add $10 + $5 additional shipping. They cost more to get, and are more parts to clean, etc. I fix them so the buttons don't stick. These are awesome controllers (joysticks).



Again, use the seller discounts box when checking out to make changes; do not add or subtract from the shipping amount (except in the case of the Advantage, where you'd be altering both) Also, add a note to explain what you want. top

Feedback

Check my feedback!! I am an honest and fair seller, but I only leave feedback after it has been left for me. If you have a problem with the transaction, notify me and I can probably fix it. Do not leave hasty negative feedback, or you will receive the same. top

Overview: Seller will refund for any reason (you still need an RMA -- see the last paragraph), but if there is nothing wrong with the item, then the buyer must ship it back to the seller at the buyer's expense. When the item is received back by the seller, the seller will refund the original purchase price less the shipping paid. This includes the controller not working on Macintosh computers (they don't). For all other cases, see below.

DOA: If the controller does not function out of the box, call or email the seller within 5 days of receipt of the package. Buyer must first obtain a DOA RMA number from the seller before sending back the item. DOA items will be repaired, replaced, or refunded. Shipping costs for returning the item (surface mail equivalent only) will be refunded to the buyer. In the case of a refund, original shipping charges will also be refunded. In the case of a repair or replacement, the controller will be sent back out at the seller's cost. DOA guarantee void if product is tampered with or opened.

This guarantee covers only defects in workmanship that manifest themselves through normal wear and tear conditions. This warrantee specifically excludes power surges, water damage, or abuse. Seller's liability is limited to the cost of the controller and will not be held responsible for incidental damages to persons or equipment. To return a controller for repair, buyer must first obtain a return merchandise authorization (RMA) number. You must call me or email me first for the number. For repairs, the controller will be mailed back to seller or affiliate at buyer's expense. When repaired, it will be mailed back to buyer at the seller's expense. Seller may choose to refund original purchase price instead of repairing or replacing the controller. Warrantee void if product is tampered with or opened. top

Disclaimer

These are vintage items, that are in use long after their intended lifespan. I do not use broken or damaged controllers, but please be reasonable in your expectations. There may be minor dings and scratches or some yellowing. The item in the picture may vary slightly from the one you receive, but is the same model and similar condition. top
