I have this unusual plug one end fits into the joypad/controller port of my NES the other end is a male plug with 25 pins, anybody happens to know what this can be used for?
My suspicions are..............zilch,I have no idea whatsoever as I only just got my NES,maybe conectivity to another NES?? Its just a stab in the dark
(the best kind ) but more than likely,wrong

hi tomz, does it actually plug into the controller port - or does a controller plug into it?
the only thing i can think that it is - is a nes control pad to PC parallel port adapter - so you could use your NES control pad with PC emulators... |

It plugs into the joypad controller port and the other end is the 25 pin male, Im starting to think that it may be a an addon like a steering wheel controller plug,in between NES and Wheel.
So its a case of 2 male plugs one definately into controller port of NES the other....a mystery at this time
