Collection of strange and obscure Famicom peripherals, controllers



It's astounding that, despite all the eBay auctions we've followed and Nintendo oddities we've researched, there are still so many Famicom accessories out there that we've never seen, much less heard of. Thankfully, an obsessive Japanese collector has put up a page documenting these rare controllers and peripherals, like Hori RF adapters and Disk System cleaning sprays.

Isn't this Sanwa stick beautiful? Chasing the Neo Geo Stick 2 has become second priority, now that we know about this fantastic piece. Apparently, there's a whole world of Famicom joysticks and third-party controllers that we never knew about.
