This has been in a box in my garage for 20+ years.

It’s an ex rental video cassette for the Philips 2000 system. I’m presuming it is quite a collectible piece. Never seen another.

I want to use a nes advantage stick with the nes classic

I have an old adapter that is designed to work with a wiimote to plug in snes/nes/megadrive pads. I thought it long lost but I found it recently and thought I would try it with the newer minis.

I’ve tested it today with a nes classic and it just goes mental, scrolling hard left. I tried connecting a snes pad and the L & R buttons worked and that was all.

I’m guessing it is down to incompatible hardware timings. The adapter was VERY cheap and is totally unbranded, it works absolutely fine on the Wii emulation nes and snes just not the newer classics.

Has anyone got a working solution to connect a nes advantage to a nes classic? I was also hoping to connect a powerglove up at some point.

Anyone want to try out my modest sized server? Free. Obviously.

I’ll add a few people that comment below. Please don’t flood with DM’s begging for access. it’s not going to get you anywhere.

As you can see from the tautulli screenshot, I’ve got more content than pretty much anyone else out there. I add new content all the time. My server is always on. No discord. No bots. No requirements.

I just thought I’d post a follow up picture with the powergloves backs

Just a little follow up picture for those interested in the powergloves.

In the picture of the two sizes of power gloves I posted the other day, I realised afterwards that the size difference wasn’t that noticeable from the top, so here is a shot of the undersides. You can see the size difference in the wrist section and the much smaller sized glove here.

Arguably the best NES controller ever. Found in some old boxes in my garage whilst tidying up.

I remember the day I got my first NES advantage, my parents bought it for me at a second hand store in York (that’s England). I remember buying my second one, fully boxed ‘new’ at a store closing down sale in Blackpool for less than half that one’s price over five years later. Bargains to be had in end days of the NEE I suppose. As for the third one, maybe they reproduced after not being played with for so long.

The middle one, is probably the oldest one, it’s clearly discoloured, the back one needs a good clean up too.

I’ll be trying to hook one up to my nes classic and another to a real NES to test out some of the games (mostly because I still have to test out the powergloves on them too!)

Wonder what I’ll find tomorrow….

Two sizes of power glove (it’s sooo bad!)

Has anyone else ever encountered a smaller sized power glove? Or perhaps a larger sized one? Depending which is the standard size I guess. I’ve just been organising my old nes stuff and found them both in a box and thought I’d ask if anyone had ever encountered two different sizes, or if I just have something odd.
