Shame. If the case had been slightly bigger, it would have been a haven for modders who wanted to pop an OLD NES into it. Shame.

I am going to be playing Castlevania 3 with it since the Gen Nex system can't run it.

Today's wireless controllers typically use RF (radio frequency) for communication while consuming less power and are vastly superior. Nintendo's Wavebird controller is the perfect example of a wireless controller done right. It's an incredible product. But we can only hope that other manufacturers' wireless schemes are just as good.

I still have nightmares over the Generation NEX.. I personally like the NES Advantage plenty, and wouldn't give it away for anything. And I am especially wary of any wireless controllers. Had some bad experiences with them back in the day.. *shudders* I’d have to say the same… I still have nightmares over the Generation NEX..
