The controller was designed to be used like an arcade game joystick and featured larger action buttons than the standard SNES controller. It is used with both hands, one for the joystick and the other to manipulate the buttons. Design[edit] The SNES Advantage is patterned on the NES Advantage. The controller features button-specific turbo switches and support for two players. It is designed to match the look of the SNES console. In popular culture[edit] The SNES Advantage is used as a theatrical prop in "Stephanie's Wild Ride" (1994), the ninth episode of the eighth season of Full House, an American sitcom.[1] References[edit] Nesadvantage.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
