This gizmo just removes the need for the adapter, while convertin the port for NES controllers at the same time. |

So is the only answer to the short controller cables, cutting and splicing longer cables? |

I would still like to get a Famicom, mostly because I want a FDS. It's funny because the only Japanese imports I'm interested in are all FDS. However, thos short controller cords just wouldn't work for me. Did any of the duos have longer cords, or detachable controllers? Anything you could put an extension on? I'm big into having either extensions or wireless options for all of my systems. If fact, I have at least two extensions for every system in my collection except for the 3DO and PC Engine (not counting systems that primarily use wireless). |
