AARON'S THOUGHTS
The NES Advantage is awesome! Once you get it cleaned up and fix the buttons, this is a fantastic controller and a must to have in any collection. It's not perfect - the slow motion feature is hit or miss depending on the game and you may or may not even need the turbo features. I also wouldn't recommend it for platformers like Super Mario Bros. or Mega Man -- you're going to want a regular D-pad for that. But it's terrific for arcade ports, space shooters and beat 'em ups.

Feel free to complain about everything I did wrong in the repairs via the comments below.
