A500 Game Controllers
« on: March 14, 2009, 05:39:11 PM »
Not sure if this is common knowledge, but I have always used Sega Genesis 3 button controllers with my A500.  Also, they work with my C64 too!

Even more obscure note, Colecovision / Atari 2600 controllers work too.  I just never plug/unplug controllers when the system is on!

Anyone know of other controllers that work?

Later,

Theres a couple of games out there that support 6 button sega controllers, too. Even a library on Aminet for this. (I've been using sega controllers since I've preferred pads instead of joysticks) Unfortunatly, wireless controllers require a pin-swap for the +5v line, something I'm going to be working on today. (or tomorrow, or whenever)
