    I know there's the Super Bomberman 4-player one. I know there's a JP Bomberman 5-player tap (shaped like Bomberman's head), I know there's a 6 player Naki tap.

    I just received this in the mail today and was curious if this tap was rare or anything, and also, how many taps there were on SNES? And they're essentially all the same right, sans size? I mean, they let you play multi player, so it comes down to asthetics (sp?) and size preferences... right?

    It is incredibly (surprisingly) small, but thats even better as it doesn't eat up much space :icon_bigg

    Oh cheese and rice.... (sound it out...)

    I am so pathetic :redface:

    I knew the Naki 6 player tap was ringing a bell.

    I just checked my closet and found out I had one! So I didn't need to buy the Super 5 after all. D'oh. Oh well. Wow... that's pretty bad. You know you own too many stuff when you buy the same game twice or similar items twice. (this past year I also bought Bionic Commando twice unknowingly)

    This is not good.... not good at all :lol:

    I have "SuperLink By BPS". It's a compact rectangle shaped box with the 4 controller ports and a switch to do 2 Player or 5 Player mode, I'm guessing for compatibility's sake.

    Hmm, I would love to know as well. AFAIK, the maximum is 5 players for any SNES game. Makes you wonder why there was a 6-player tap when the max is, seemingly, 5?

    Battle Cross has 6 racers, but tops out at 5 human players (leaving 1 CPU controlled).
