I'm done with that one, an add-on to the list would be nice. I just took a picture of it open, all I did to finish was screw it together; my camera is being dumb now, so I don't have any complete pics, but those are good enough, right :wink: ?

Just drew up a diagram of the 4021 IC in the NES controller, if anyone needs it. :)

Easiest place to get NOACs - http://www.powerplayerusa.com

Just get the $18.99 one. I've ordered from them twice myself - they're reliable. The site looks phony, but they're for real.

Updated! Finally! :P And I have to say, those are some fine jobs. I especially liked the entirely wooden one, that is amazing.

Excellent! But I forgot to draw your attention to this

http://benheck.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=18738

Basically, I put together a compilation of info on as many NOACs I could find, plus lots of general info. It might be useful for new members or just everyone in general :P

Family Converters are getting hard to find, here is the cheapest site I have found thus far. Plus, they have a plastic cover, which is nice! You could just leave the original 60 pin connector on and use this, since it's sturdy enough to not wiggle around like the non-cased ones do.

This used to have cheap super joy's, but they don't carry them anymore :( Anyone got a new source for their pirated NES goodness?

Amazon (believe it or not), but they're getting pretty expensive.
