I have the parallel version of the CopyNES, but I was wondering if using an adapter such as the one below, would work? I assume I would have to use the CopyNES USB software on bunnys site too. Any ideas? Thanks

most people say these type of cables are mostley for printers and have limited support for outher devices. it would not work with copynes
It's hard enough getting the CopyNES to work with an actual parallel port. Such an adapter would almost certainly not work.
It does not work at all. Those devices are definitely just meant for printers and are software driven.

I just reorganized my computers and wanted to get rid of my old Pentium 60 that I just used for the old parallel port. I found my AMD K7 950 works fine with CopyNes using an add-on parallel card (not the motherboard parallel port).
CopyNES and pretty much every parallel game copier device are completely hit and miss when it comes to what machines they will work with. I tested my copynes on 6 machines, and none worked. Worked fine on a buddy's machine, though. Same with my MGD1.
Sometimes adding a card will work. For me, I tiried 3 different cards and nada. I hear ISA cards work best, but computers don't have those any more.

Mine is a ISA slot card by Lava.
