A new adapter has been launched this week priced at $20 or roughly £14 that allows owners of the original NES to enjoy games using a wireless controller.
Created by 8Bitdo and Analogue the adapter or Retro Receiver as it has been called provides Bluetooth connectivity and plugs into any NES console and provides wireless communication to a range of different controllers and supports up to 4 person multiplayer.
Controllers supported by the NES Bluetooth adapter include both PlayStation three and PlayStation four controllers as well as the Wii Remote and Wii U Pro Controller. Unfortunately Xbox 360 or Xbox One controllers not currently supported although 8Bitdo sells wireless NES and SNES controllers that are also compatible with the adapter as you might guessed.
The Retro Receiver is a Bluetooth dongle; it enables 8Bitdo controllers to connect to the NES wirelessly and also allows the use of PS3, PS4, Wii remote and Wii U Pro controllers. It is no longer a dream to play NES games wirelessly. The Retro Receiver also supports Windows (X-INPUT) MacOSX（X-INPUT）and PS3.
