 Great with any amiga, dunno about the c64. Would think so becuase C-64 sticks work fine with Amigas. Even a Sega Genesis pad works fin on an Amiga.



No, no, NO!

Never use a Genesis/MegaDrive pad with an Amiga. Yes the sockets are the same, but it can fry one of the internal chips.

As for using CD32 pads with the 500/1200, I don't know. It should work as I have regularly used my CD32 pads with my A600's (before they broke last year).

If you wish to use other control pads with a C64 I suggest you search for the SX64. If I remembered correctly, thats the name of a new cool piece of tech that (depending on which unit you buy) will allow you to plug in NES, SNES, MegaDrive/Genesis, PS2 and a few other console pads into your C64! :)
