Remember Me
Would it be possible to sacrifice an SNES to get ports for the pi? Is there any downside to doing this rather than ordering the cables?
What exactly do you mean?
You wouldn’t be able to use the snes anymore…. But if you are dealing with a dead snes, then there really isn’t a reason to not salvage the controller ports if you can.
Note that it is probably the cheapest to buy SNES extension cables on ebay and just use those. http://www.ebay.com/itm/TWO-2-EXTENSION-CABLE-CORDS-FOR-SNES-SUPER-NINTENDO-16-Bit-CONTROLLER-/290762051065?pt=US_Video_Game_Cables_Adapters&hash=item43b2c4cdf9
