From the project

KiCad project for a SNES Controller to CBM Userport Adapter

This repository contains the KiCad project and Gerber files for an adapter that allows to connect a SNES controller to the Userport of many Commodore 8-bit computers like the C64, C128, PET, Plus/4 and VIC-20.

This adapter was developed for the game "PETSCII Robots" by The 8-bit Guy. The official adapter is available for purchase from Texelec. When you live in North America, I recommend that you buy it there instead of using this clone. This repository is only for persons living in countries where shipping from North America and taxes are prohibitively expensive.
