A mouse inspired by the Nintendo NES controller #Vintage #Gaming
Remember the Super Nintendo mouse? It was originally designed for the 1992 release Mario Paint and was eventually made compatible with multiple other games on the system. The system’s predecessor – the NES – didn’t ever receive an official accessory like this, but now there’s at least a mouse inspired by the classic system.
The 8BitDo N30, released in 2019, is a 2.4GHz wireless computer mouse for Windows and Mac that looks like a Nintendo Entertainment System controller. The rubber pad A and B buttons act as the main mouse buttons, a 3D touch panel in between makes scrolling a breeze, and the D-Pad on the side helps with navigation.
It’s still listed on the 8BitDo website here and sold by some third party resellers. More details in the article here.
