Okay, we’ve seen a lot of mods that transform age-old controllers and make them compatible with PCs. Does that mean we are getting tired of spotting the same thing over and over again? Hell no! As a matter of fact, being clumsy with electronics as we are, we love to see the ancient controllers being made compatible with PCs and put up on online shelves. Etsy apparently knows our weakness and has put up two modded controllers for sale. Retro NES controller and Sega Genesis controller (both used) are up for grabs, hacked and endowed with USB compatibility. Compatible with Mac and PC, they’ve even been tested on Linux. Your preferences apart, NES controller seems better among the two as it comes with a handy trick. Press a series of buttons in a row and the controller readily becomes a mouse (or functions as such anyway). There are currently four of these retro devices on site – three Genesis and one NES. These are going for $35 each and $33 respectively. Jump to see the hacked Genesis controller.

This is great news, for people that loved these consoles...Like me! Whish I could get Sega that works!
C’est du vrai design, ça va faire gagner beaucoup d’argent à son créateur, c’est clair !
Yeah, the sega was the absolute best console.
The old controls were so much better than what it available today. The original Atari joystick?
Best. Controller. Ever.
Very cool
Having and seeing one of these everyday will bring back so many memories i had with my sega.

They need to make an N64 controller that plugs into the Wii
I totally agree that the need to make the N64 controller fit into the Wii
I think this is great considering that you can play through console already straight from your pc.
Very cool indeed!
I think U r wrong.how and why old gadget.
really ! i think u are child now!
I feel like i’d be more apt to try to hack a controller myself than drop $30+ for a controller that I know i have sitting somewhere in my basement.
Fantastic man.
