Title: Replacement Famicom controllers
Post by: Atari1977 on June 13, 2013, 12:16:27 pm
Hey, so I just wanted to know if anyone knew a source for replacement Famicom controllers. I don't need any right now, fortunately, but I figured it'd be good to have a set on hand in case I ever did.

Now that you mention it, I sure could use a 1 player controller replacement myself...

I see you live in Japan, so your best bet would be to scour some shops (Hard-Off etc.).

yes, but sadly bad luck with square button family. I only found one, but was with two controllers :)

difficult to find only a controller, I was thinking that maybe someone made new ones??

I found here in japan, new famicom controllers, but only round buttons

Patience is what is needed most.
Square button controllers are much rarer than regular ones.

Maybe chances are better you find another working sb Famicom for a good price.
