Did this thing come out/when does this thing come out?

http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-...eed&subj=Crave

This adapter for the wii lets you plug in NES/SNES/N64 controllers into a gamecube port, this would be awesome to use with the Megaman anniversary collection.

It was supposed to come out several months ago, does anyone know the status on this thing? Is it ever going to come out?

Don't know about that specific one, but I did find this NES/SNES to Wii adapter: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-...n-70-3m5n.html

I have the SNES one, works great on Wii and GameCube (including for the GameBoy player). You can even use the SNES Power Plug to remap buttons and stuff.

But I bought it from an ebay seller because the guy running this store seems like an ass who would take his time shipping it (read his FAQ).

I got myself one of those fine SNES Power Plugs, how do I remap buttons with it though? I never really used it that much.

You can't remap the buttons just with the converter itself, but you can buy the TYCO Power Plug for SNES for a few dollars and do whatever you want in both remapping and programming.

I have the tyco powerplug, but I can't figure out how to remap the buttons with it.

I was watching this one! I read somewhere that they were having problems with the N64 part and that they are changing it to just a NES/SNES adapter.. which really sucks! But don't think even THAT has been released yet!

Guess you don't have the manual then. Ya, this thing is hard to figure out without it. Well what you want to do is:

-Press "Pro" on the Power Plug (which means Program)
-Choose the Destination button first
-Choose the button you wish to duplicate
-Press "Pro" to finish (you should hear a confirmation sound)

Example, let's say you wish to remap buttons when using the GameBoy Player so that B will be Jump and Y will be shoot (Metroid Fusion to play like Super Metroid). Press Pro-B-A-Pro, this will copy the jumping function of A to B. Now press Pro-Y-B-Pro and this will copy the shooting function of B to the Y button.

Wow that guy is a huge douchebag. People like that should work at McDonalds and not try to be so enterprising.
