SNES USB controllers?

Hello,

Anyone got a SNES USB controller here? I am curious to know how good the D-pad is?

PS. To whoever designed the D-pad on the Xbox360 controller: Please find the nearest dick and suck it.

If you look around a bit, you can probably find a SNES controller that has been modded to run either an Arduino board or a Rasberry Pi. I know the Pi Zero has been made into a bunch of NES emulators/controllers. If you're not into the tinkering around yourself, you can probably find one on ebay, or try the raspberry pi or Arduino forums.

FYI, if you're not aware, Arduino is a microcontroller board that takes C++ code and lets users run IO ports. It can easily be made into a game controller that connects to a PC via USB. Pi is a Linux based computer that also lets users run IO ports, but since it is Linux, it call also host the software too.
