My local classic video game store has an NES Advantage in stock. I'm considering getting it, hoping it'll make Top Gun and Marble Madness easier to play.

If it's too much, I could always get it off of ebay.

I got one just to play Ms. Pacman--what a great investment!

You should get one of those retrousb adapters so you can use it on the Wii to play VC games.

Yes. Definitely. And also pick up an adapter from RetroUSB like brooks83 said. The Advantage is an excellent joystick, great for VC with the adapter. You can also use it for some non-NES games if they only require 2-button input (TG16, some Genesis, etc).

Lindsey Stirling is as awesome as She-Ra. Perhaps even more so.

I could use it for Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. I'm asking for it for Christmas.

Yeah, that sounds cool. I don't know why so many people hated the Advantage.

I loved the Advantage. I'd say hurry and buy it before someone else does.

It'd be especially good in non-NES games for situations that require you to press the A or B button repeatedly!
