      I have my Nintendo hooked into my VCR. I have 15 foot cables going 
     between the two. I know this isn't what you asked for but maybe a
     similar set-up is an option for you.

    Re .0:
    
    What do you mean by "standard controller"?  Do you mean the control
    pads?  I doubt the communications are very high speed or terribly time
    dependent, so you can probably add quite a bit of length.  Kay-Bee Toy
    and Hobby used to sell extension cords for the controllers.
    
    I've added several extra feet between the system box and the
    television, but that is one way and any delay is unlikely to have any
    effect on games -- except possibly for gun games.  For gun games, you
    should probably keep the separation below 1,500 miles, so the signal
    has time to travel from the Nintendo to the television and back to the
    gun before the next frame is drawn.  (Sega systems use a more precise
    gun-detection mechanism and should be kept within three miles of the
    television.)
    
    Seriously, my controllers are on an infrared remote, which I am sure
    adds a slight delay.  You should probably go ahead and try the
    separation you wish.

    If you mean you want to locate the NINTENDO game a longer distance from
    the tv, I have two games (in different rooms), with 25' extension
    cables from Radio Shack hooked between the game and the tv. This also
    works with the GENISIS game, but will not work with the TGX (video
    really degrades with the TGX). Hope this helps

       Thanks for your tips, but I think that is not clear, 
     
      Really that I want to do is the following:
    
               <-----------  A ----------->
        +------+ ------------------------- +---------+
        |  TV  |                           | Nintendo|
        +------+                           +---------+
                                              |     |
             +-+------------------------------|     |    
             +-+                                    |
 Pad's          <----------------- ? ---------------|
 Nintendo    +-+------------------------------------+
             +-+                                     
    
           I think so that the 'A' distance not there is problem, because
    is a coaxial cable, but the distance from the Pad's Nintendo to
    Box's Nintendo (?) there is a problem, because I tested with 60 feet
    and I had problems, now I need to cut the cable to support a small
    distance, but I do not know what is the maximum distance that can be
    supported?  When I tested this configuration, really the TV was
    by the side of the Nintendo. The problem that I saw, was the image of the
    TV is freezed, I begin with not problem, but after 1 minutes more
    less, the game is blocked. 
    
         The finallity of this configuration, is to change the cassets
    since one room, and the childen are playing in the other room.
    
        Regards

   I would guess that your problem is not the length of the cable.  It
   may be a bad connection somewhere.  A well connected cable shouldn't
   add any noticable resistance to the line and as edp pointed out the
   time delay is miniscule.  That's my 2�.

       I make the connecttion with 25 feet, and this worked, with 60
    feet did not work. Somebody toll me that is necesary to rise the
    voltage to increase the distance ( but this is hack).
