Check that! , its a real 9pins psx compatible adapter!!

ie you dont need psxport and its lame lib running etc , this should work on every damn game and heh check the part where it says "analog joysticks also working"  , only 2-3 games on amiga atm support that with psx port!

cheers

The PSX joypad has more buttons than the CD32 one. psxport.device allows you to use them all. No converter can do that.

kennyr: LOL , i have a psx-port here so please explain! .. first of all you need the specific library INSTALLED , ie so if you use whdload etc PSX PORT Will not WORK! .

THIS ONE WILL!

this is a ADapTer for ALL games , 2 to 6 button games. , and as a last note  tell me about 1 game that needs more than 6 buttons on amiga :)

i play quake,quake2,freespace etc on my psx-port , it maps 6 BUTTONS + 2 exra if u use aux7-8.

hehe, if you quake with joystick use a thrustmaster at least, lol :)

on psxport you could load a lowlevel.library replacement or something, which worked fine for me, dunno if it could be made memoryresident tho.

btw, these push entermainment demos rule =)

That's one very cool looking device!


What would be nice, is if those 'analogue' controls actually worked like paddles, or mouse emulation, or somthing better.

Why buy a converter? I've played around with a few joypads and converted them to the Amiga... it's simple and doesn't require a converter though need right cable and a bit of solderings and a few parts once in a while. My latest project is still in it's prebuild state but include a PS controller and 2 9DS plugs so I can use the pad both as a 3 button digital and possibly analog joypad with autofire option aswell as a 3 button mouse. An all in one option realy but as said it's not been built yet and I'm sure to run into a few problems creating this one. :-D

You can use the analougue sticks as a DPAD! thats the cool thing with it! ..on psx port u can't!

with this adapted you can play superfrog with the STICKS on your psx controller.

and there is versions for neogeo , saturn , snes ,nes etc...

please! before u guys start talking about making your own etc , read the specs and check the screenshots!

sure you can hack one to work , i have done it .. but this adapter is so much cooler ... (since it actually is just plug and play and you can play without using a lame cd32 pad (dpad on it suxx) .

psx port is good for games designed for it , but still analouge doesnt work in payback for instance... with this adapter IT DOES!..

This is cool, using the analog sticks instead
of d-pads. 15 bucks is a good price considering
the crappy psx port is like 50 bucks if
you can find it.

So is the "Genesis" version the one I want to
buy? They seem to have a few different ones on
there with "DB-9" style connectors, is the
Genesis pad similar to the CD32/Amiga
controllers?

Ok I did some checking and ordered the right
one, I'll let y'all know how it works...although
it may take a while, since it ships from
Hong Kong and I opted for cheap shipping..:/

The genesis pad registers as a 2 button joypad in the Amiga without any modding, my pad had a dirty connector for the 3rd button though so might actually work as a 3 button one, not sure. Anyway I ripped out the IC and resistors inside and connected the whires directly as the Amiga wants it and then added autofire to the start button aswell. After removing all SEGA text and logos from it this is now a pritty sweet joypad to use. :-D

brian:well i dont recall about the genesis/MD but as far as  MasterSystem goes it should be identical to any amiga,weird that they didnt force 2button controllers/pads onto amiga like they did on consoles

i really dont remeber the 6 buttons on the Genesis , same as saturn ???
