SNAC Controllers Adapters

Unread post by ascopolis »

Hi there, it´s me again, Mr. RTFM, I just get these SNAC Apaders to play some NES games.

https://misterfpga.co.uk/product/mister ... -adapters/

My answer is: I just need these too?

https://misterfpga.co.uk/product/mister ... apter-usb/

So I need to plug the first one into the second one, and plug my NES controller? (all into the USB SNAC port), :cry: :cry: :cry:

If this is the case... let me place my order again through the Atlantic Ocean and wait another month and a half.

Thank you!

You need one from the second link, and whatever you want from the first link. If you want to use Atari paddles, you need an ADC jack which comes with the Digital IO board but doesn't with the VGA. You may also want some short USB 3.0 extension cables so you don't bust off the USB jacks by accident with the boards sticking out the side of your MiSTer.

Thank you! I had to consider if a would like to spend extra 24 pounds + 10 shipping for those ones in order to use my original NES controller, it´s kinda weird but here in México I could get the original NES full set for that amount of money, there´s a guy in the states who sell the SNAC adapters on eBay for $44 USD with two controller ports, but I don´t need those extras, guess I had to quit or wait for someone who sells only the SNAC adapter in América in USD... because if you convert pounds to Mexican pesos, well...

You could certainly make your own, but be aware that the components are tiny and surface mount. If you aren't experienced with surface-mount soldering, I wouldn't try it. Plus, you will need the connectors for NES, etc.

Strange. He is in Pennsylvania. I see it in USD. You can try contacting him to check if he has stock and can ship to you.

One way to look at it is should i spend some more now IF i maybe want to use other controllers in the future?
And maybe buy two so you have one in spare IF one stops working?
