How To Wire a Classic NES Controller to Your PC.

By Chrisjob

There's heaps of free NES emulators on the web, which allow you to play the Nintendo games of yore on your  computer. Unfortunately, making Megaman jump with the spacebar isn't quite like the old A button, and the QWERTY keyboard slows down the 30 lives code for Contra (you know you know it...) past the point of cheatability. 

With a bit of soldering skills and a free code by the inventor (named Turd...), you can enjoy your NES games the way they were meant to be enjoyed...with the original controller. Think it could work with that gun and Duck Hunt?

 

 
 Now if they could only make one that'll work with a Mac.
