So where do I buy an NES cord for my fighter power stick?

That's a good question. Someone would have to know what it is or at least list as "a funny cord with a NES plug on one end" or something. I suppose it might be possible to maybe make one. The stick end is funky, but it looks like if you had a normal plastic female db15 you might be able to make it work if you shaved that bottom bump and mated it with a cord from a NES controller if it's just a matter of matching the pins and there's no chip in the stick end of the plug doing any translation.

That's pretty cool. I always wanted to get a Duff beer sign or something similar for behind the bar.

Nice setup you have there. How do you like your X-arcade pad? Which adapters do you have? I've been toying with the idea of picking one up with an xbox adapter for DigDug/Donkey Kong on the xbox.

I see that you have furring strips on the wall. Was that installed by the previous owner? Or do you plan to put some sort of insulation/paneling on the wall?

What part of the country are you located? I imagine that it gets a little chilly in the basement in the winter, no?

My basement had furring strips (2x3) with dark pine panelings. I took all of it off. My plan is to frame up a 2x4 wall and foam insulate. I have had people professionally foam parts of the house and it's expensive. I'm planning to DIY this time by buying foam boards from Home Depot and cutting them to fit between the studs.
