I need a USB Nintendo pad.

I have a load of emulators that I run. I have loads of games. Some of them don't translate too well to a keyboard - anyone know where I can get a USB version of the NES, SNES, PS1, and PS2 keypads?

there is a site, that was posted here at some point that takes old NES controllers and converts them to USB

You can also do it yourself... I converted an old xbox controller to USB and it is simple, just cut the nintendo controller cord and you should see 4 different colored wires, they should match the colors on the USB cable (Minus the yellow maybe, cant remember)

there will be one color that doesnt match, you dont need to attach that to anything.

You would also have to find drivers.
