Dreamcast USB Controller?
« on: February 17, 2012, 07:26:51 pm »
Hi all. I'd like to get an actual Dreamcast controller that I can connect to the computer thru USB so I can play games via NullDC. I can't seem to locate a USB adapter for this type of controller or a circuit that I can solder inside of a controller to convert to USB. Does anyone know if either of these things exist?

If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

just and FYI, the trio linker (original) has zero support and doesnt work with Win7 64, however its plug and play with winXP and is pretty awesome.

The Trio Linker Plus II says its Win 7 compatible. So it should be P & P with Win 7 64-bit right? At least that's what it seems like from what I've read online. Does anyone know for sure?

the trio II does work with win7 (both 32 and 64) but the original trio linker doesnt work with win 7 64bit
