I've got extension cords for SNES, N64, Gamecube, and Genesis. I've only had trouble with one of my Gamecube cords (a Pelican brand one)

Then, I'll be giving up on that.
So here's another question. How's the input lag on the Mayflash SNES to USB adapter? I'm thinking of picking one up, but I kinda would like to know, since I would be using it with my Score Master for shmups and fighting games.

This is the adapter I'm talking about:


I'd also be interested to hear if anyone has any experience with SNES and NES to USB adapters such as this.  Been thinking about getting some to use with emulators on games I don't own or want to try before buying.

Quiet. We don't talk about that kind of gaming. You own it or else.

Okay.  My bad.  Then I'd be interested in hearing about people's experience with NES/SNES to USB adapters to use with playing games via pc which I already own but don't want to wear the cart out by playing the real deal all the time.  :)

That's a nifty little device there.  Kinda out of my price range right now though (and the guys store seems to be closed to new orders right now).  Would like to get one of them someday for sure.

I did exactly this with a couple of Saturn extension cords that were absolutely worthless. Choppy choppy, solder, heat shrink, done. Saturn controllers with 15' cords ;D

I've been using the Retro USB SNES - USB cable, and it works like a charm.

I'd also rather prefer the RetroUSB adapters, but unfortunately, they're unavailable in my country, and importing one would be more expensive than getting the Mayflash one.

This might be leading off topic, but my nes controller ports are really worn down.  So often i pull the cord out ( or it falls out) when playing.  If they make extension cords for the nes.  Maybe I could rewire the nes controller ports using patch cords.
