      @RumblinBuffalo on ebay the ps1-2 adapters in the clear blue plastic work great for me. They were listed as hde brand on the ones inside my pistation 1. Dont buy single controller adapters other than the radio shack because they are really still 2 player adapters with the second player as the only useable player.

        @edmaul69 Thanks! I saw those on Amazon (HDE brand - blue plastic) for about $4 + shipping. I think I'll give them a try.

            @itsnitro Nope, I solved my lag issues by disabling the wifi radio completely and by turning off threaded video. There is still lag compared to the genuine article, but no more than expected with any emulation. It seems to be just as good now as when I was using wired controllers.

            I will say that the NES30 is a little small for my hands. I may need to pick up the SNES-looking equivalent.

              Why on Earth would you play Robotron and Smash TV with a controller? :D

              I'd advise you to stock with wired controllers. They have the best performance and never need to be charged, and besides, they are more authentic.

              10' extension cables are your friend :)
