So I'm guessing you bought it from the guy already setup, do you know if it's running RetroPie? It's very likely it is if you're not sure, and if that's the case you should be able to hook it up to a wifi network in the menu if it's on a Pi 3. Then you access the \\retropie file share from your computer and drop the games there. You can also add games to a USB stick, this page details how to have it autorecognize and pull games from USB and accessing the \\retropie share

As for controllers. the iBuffalo controllers are the best wired SNES replicas you can buy, and they're not that much more expensive than the cheap knockoffs
