Story

MyGameBuddy is a controller for the PC. It is a box with two arcade buttons that sends input values to the CPX that uses code to make them inputs in the computer. They are programmed to use left and right arrows input. So I used an emulator and ROM for Super Mario World on the NES. If you click or hold down buttons it will go left or right.
