Controller Question
« on: July 11, 2005, 09:19:15 pm »
Is there any way to plug a NES controller into a Dreamcast?  Also can you plug your dreamcast into a PC monitor instead of a tv to play.

I'm not sure about the controller (there's got to be some way of hacking a NES pad to a DC pad, but I'd imagine it's going to be a hell of a lot of work).

The easiest way to get the DC to work on a PC monitor is using a VGA box:
