Just buy yourself a cheap PC controller from somewhere and then use emulators to play all the old games you want. Most NES roms are smaller than an average Stunners World Cup page to download.
I'll link people up if you can't find what you need. Google search should do the trick though.

For eg. 5 snes emulators plus 758 game roms. I had nes, snes, gameboy, master system, megadrive emulators with every release... Also i bought a usb adaptor and just use a ps2 pad to play the games. I lost all of them though on my old pc

if you can get hold of an old xbox pad, an old usb cable you don't need, some scissors and some sort of sellotape then you can convert it yourself. http://www.fury-tech.com/en/Guides/Xbox-Controller-PC-Conversion-ModTis what I did and although it's not the best of gamepads, it's not too bad. The rumble works and it's got enough buttons to keep you sorted for all your emulation needs. Up to N64 and PS is about as far as I go. You need a monster computer to do ps2. Otherwise search yourself you lazy cunt.

In no particular order:
Rampage Tetris Lemmings Sensible Soccer (the original) Point Blank (its a retro re-release on the ps1 but I'm counting it)
There are probably countless more I played on the Atari and the Amstrad CPC that I have forgotten about

If you get a Wii, you can pay and download all the old classics that you already own! Brilliant!

1) Moonstone 2) Skidmarks 3) Kick Off 4) Rainbow Islands 5) International Karate +
I also have fond memories of James Pond and Sensi Soccer.
I remember buying pirate versions of all Amiga Games down the market at Greenbridge, £2 per disk i think it was. Monkey island was actually cheaper to buy the proper copy because it had 12 disks.
I remember the day my old man bought me my Amiga, happy 11th bday that was, it cost £500!
