NES Accessories
 
 
I also like to collect controllers, different types of controllers. And just like my games, if they aren't useful or liked, I usually sell of them. I am not a collector just for collecting sake. Here are some of the controllers & accessories I have:
 

The NES Advantage a very nice controller. It has slow motion and  turbo! It also has 2 plug-ins that allow 2 player games as long as they are not simultaneous. I own 2 of these.
 
 
 
 

The Nintendo Four Score. It allows you to play 4 players. This is a nice accessory for multi-player games like R.C. Pro-AM 2.

The Game Genie allows you to enter codes. There are codes that allow you more lives, stronger or more powers, enter higher levels, and many other types of cheat codes. A very nice accessory. I use it but not often. One popular use for me is lengthening the game of MULE past 12 months to 18 months. So it's not always cheating, it can be used simply to make some games go longer.

The NES Max is another controller. It has turbo and has 2 methods of control. You can use the black circle as a controller or move the red button inside the circle around to control the game. It's an okay controller, not the best and certainly not the worst.

This QuickShot controller is a simple little controller and is another okay controller I have. You can turn on or off the auto-fire which is turbo. When you use this controller you hold it what you would think is upside-down, like the picture shows.
 
 
 
 

Another QuickShot controller. Some people call it a track-ball, I do not know it's official name, but it is not a real track ball, it does not spin or move at all. It slightly rotates in all directions. I kept this controller because it is huge and I have a friend who is very tall and has big hands and this controller is good for him.
 
 
 
 

This is a very unusual controller called the U-Force. There is alot of negative reviews about this controller. And unless you read the instructions and practice with the practice plastic holder pieces it is near impossible to use. But I got pretty good with this in racing games and have heard of someone who could finish the 1st level of Super Mario with this. But what is cool about this controller is you put your hands in the open air above the black "field" and front of the other and touch nothing, but the controller senses your hand movements and allows you to control the games and including pushing invisible/imaginary A/B buttons.
 
 
 
 

This is the NES Zoomer. I like this controller for racing games. We all know people who have worn out or broke controllers, well I have worn out the Zoomer like 2 or 3 times and had to have it fixed by a friend. There is a slow motion control, and I think there is a degree control turbo button as well.
 
 
 
 

This is the NES Zapper light gun. I have the orange one and the grey one as well.

This is the "dogbone" controller that came with the NES 2/top loading NES. This is one of my top two controllers.
 
 
 
 
 


 

The original NES controller. Most everyone has seen one. I own one. Here is the manual:

This was my absolutely favorite controller. I got it soon after just purchasing my NES. It allowed you to control the game by the slightest touch, no pushing down, it is touch sensitive. It also had turbo buttons. They guaranteed it would be your favorite controller after playing it for a week. It did take a little getting used to, not as bad as the U-Force, but it indeed became a great controller to use once you got used to it. Unfortunately it began to wear out on me and I stopped using it. A couple years ago I found another one, but I had fallen out of practice so I am not used to it yet.
 
 
 
 

Mega - Programmable control pad with an LCD screen by Bandai. This may be rare. I couldn't find anything on the internet except a small line of info on Wikipedia and one for sale on Ebay. This is an exception to my collection, as I never used this controller. I believe there were preset moves for games like Spy-Hunter.
 
 
 
 

The Game Handler is another exception to my collection. Some day I may sell this one. I found this new in a store about 1995, very late I would think, my guess that is even late in the SNES era. It came with a VHS video seen in the picture. The cord unplugged from the controller and could be kept in a cheap dome container also seen in the picture. The Game Handler was usually described as a "one-handed controller". The Game Handler had no base -- it was just a free-floating cylinder that you tilted to make your game character move. Unfortunately, it didn't really work properly, and the technology inside ended up sending all sorts of weird signals that the NES didn't know what to do with. So of course, this was billed as a "feature." Make Mario run backward! Make your Ninja Turtle disappear! The controller features reversible A and B buttons, so right and left handed people could use it I assume, as well as a 10 foot cable. Turbo fire of some kind is available, as well as slow motion. I did not like this controller although I have tried it.
 
 
 
 

The Power Pad. At the time of this writing, this was the last controller I ever got. Yeah, I never had a Power Pad until recently, I also never had the Zapper until recently as well. I got it on Ebay and it was practically new, and came with the original box, I turned around and sold the box on Ebay believe it or not! The Power Pad has 2 sides, and while there aren't many games for the Power Pad, most use side B. I have 1 game that uses side A. I believe some dancing and exercise games use side A, which I do not own.

Street Cop
Super Team Games
World Class Track Meet (same game as Stadium Events)

 My Lord of the Rings Pages - now out-dated. While I still have over half of my collection listed there, some of its been sold or given away. I have lost interest. My disinterest began with the 3rd film. While I believe the films are great, I was upset at the scene on the volcano where Frodo used his ring against Gollum. That scene was in the book, but not in the movie. It also was the reason why Frodo got his energy back to run the rest of the way up. The movie made it look like Frodo just wanted to ride on Sam's back cause he was lazy, because he fell off and then just ran away!

On that page click on "The Manual Project", then click on "Nintendo" or whatever other system you want to find a manual in. Once there type in the name of the game, or click on the 1st letter of the manual you want. You may get a list of all the manuals starting with that letter. Then you click on the manual you are interested in and then you will go to an interesting page where you have 3 options: View Manual, Download vlm, or Download pdf. You will actually end up with a scan of the actual manual rather than just the text of the manuals.
