    That’s kinda cool, the Famicom controllers are recognized as “HVC controller”. HVC being the code used for the NES/FAMICOM, and stands for Home Video Console.

      I have the common Revision 1, which changed the B and A buttons and revised the console hardware.
      I actually had transplanted parts from two different units 'cause I had the smart idea of using an NES AC Adaptor with my initial unit...and I killed it.
