The NES Four Score is Nintendo's four-player adapter for the Nintendo Entertainment System, released in North America in March 1990. It lets up to four controllers play at once in supported games and adds turbo switches for the A and B buttons. Check the listing photos for the exact item you will receive.
Nintendo released the Four Score in North America in March 1990. It is a multitap: it plugs directly into the NES and gives you four controller ports instead of two. Four-player play only works in games that were made to support it.
A 2/4 switch lets you choose two-controller or four-controller mode. Two Turbo switches simulate rapid pressing of the A and B buttons. The Four Score is a wired adapter, unlike its sister product, the NES Satellite, which used infrared signals and ran on six C batteries.
There are limits. The adapter does not work with the NES Zapper light gun or the Power Pad, so plug those straight into the console instead.
About two dozen NES games work with the Four Score. Examples include Gauntlet II, Super Off Road, Nintendo World Cup, Roundball: 2 on 2 Challenge and Bomberman II, which supports up to three players. Smash TV uses it differently, giving two players two controllers each. Check a game's box or manual to confirm four-player support before you buy it for that purpose.
Browse all game accessories, add extra Nintendo NES Controllers, or pick up a supported game like Gauntlet II or Super Off Road. Read more about the Four Score on Wikipedia.

I use it as an extension cord, and the auto fire feature is nice, as far as playing four player games goes I have no Idea i’d have to find three friends to comment on that. I works on a toploader as well as the vcr style nes. the plug won’t fit into the retron5 and I don’t know if it will fit any other clone systems

Must have for the NES aficionado
Although a very limited number of NES games support 4 controllers, its still an important part of any NES collection. Now I can finally play off road with 3 friends!

4 score
This is a great item however I really feel the NES could have made some great 4 player games to unlock what it could really do I also feel this should have been built into the original console this is a Nintendo name brand product, however if you take it apart you will see it is actually made my Hori and they make some of the best controllers ever made hands down:)
