Multiple Genesis Controller Support
« on: May 30, 2004, 10:13:48 am »
Hi, I'm sorry if I've missed some topics that cover this already but I need a bit of help. This isn't strictly arcade, but Its controller support for emulators.

I want to use a genesis/megadrive controller with my PC. Thats not to hard. The most logical way seems to be to construct a parallel adapter using DirectPadPro. http://www.arcadecontrols.com/Mirrors/www.ziplabel.com/dpadpro/

But unlike the Snes adapter, there isn't any information on how to make this have multiple joypad support. Does anyone have any advice or links on how to do this. Either that or alternative ways to hooking up to 4 controllers to any inputs on the pc.

Thanks for your time.

well, probably not the exact answer you are looking for, but I guess it is a potential fix for your problem. ;D
