The old school is now the new cool.”

Now we know that retrousb has had the NES and SNES solutions for a long time, but $20.00 for all three??? Yeah, I'll give one a shot and if the support is great, I'll pick up a second

That definately sounds tempting! I don't have a NES or SNES controller, but I might pick one up. The SNES controller was far better than the Classic Controller IMO.

Well, I play Majora's Mask with a Gamecube controller. Never had any problems with it.
