I recently came into an NES Advantage. I have a nes-controller-to-usb converter, but the Advantage was designed to be plugged into two ports at once. Is there any way to reconcile this problem?
I'm using FCEUX currently, but if there's something about it that prevents using the advantage I have no problem switching to something else.

I'd imagine you should need to only plug in one of those cables, and make sure that the NES Advantage is set to "Player 1" mode. The two cables were designed to let two players share the same controller for games that had hot-seat multiplayer.

It is as Weasel said. The player 1 cable has a white stripe on it; that's the one you connect.

I see. Thanks for the help there. I'll try that when I get a chance and report back.
EDIT: Yeah, it worked. My initial difficulty was mostly rooted in me never having tried anything like this and with my particular Advantage being slightly unresponsive / sticky. I'll have to see to that.
I had to use Nestopia UE though. Anyone know if there's a way to do this with FCEUX?

It shouldn't matter which emulator your use. The Advantage will just show up in windows as a generic USB joystick. You should just be able to customize controls and press the Joystick buttons when prompted. I don't have FCEUX installed to see exactly where it is in the interface, but I'm sure you can find it.
