Gravis Gamepad

Old Fool · 23 April 2007, 11:31

I was in a flea market and I noticed there was a Gravis Gamepad with exactly same kind of connector that would fit to Amiga's gameport also.

I doubt Gravis has ever made gamepads for Amiga so I didn't bought it though it cost only 1 €.

Now I'm thinking would it be worked after all??

If I remember right it looked like this one: http://img.bestofmicro.com/c/I69436.jpg

Maybe it's designed for Sega Mega Drive/Genesis (same connector).

That could be one answer. Anyway I guess it's not gona work in Amiga. Can Sega controllers be modified to fit an Amiga?

Megadrive controllers work fine on the Amiga.

Try it, even if it will not work you'll have pretty buttons with different color each :>

No way! Few years ago I saw fine black megadrive controller also in flea market! It came with the machine and they both was only about 25 €. I thought the controller wouldn't work with Amy.. Damn!
