[Somewhat solved] NES outputs 4.6V on controller port instead of 5V which prevents Blueretro from functioning properly in c/askelectronics@discuss.tchncs.de

What I’ve measured so far:

from the controller port directly: 4.8V
from the wires inside the adapter without Blueretro attached: 4.6V
from the wires inside the adapter with Blueretro attached: 3.9V

There are some active components inside the adapter itself, I guess this could explain the drop 0.2V drop.

So is it sagging?

I can respond to at least your second question right now: I can power the Blueretro from USB while on the console that's how I know it is functioning properly when powered properly (my original post wasn't clear enough I guess).

I'll test the voltage while powered on as soon as I can.
