Hi All,

I got Paul Willingham to make me an adapter (with an extension cable for the A600) for under £20. it works with the PS1/PS2 controllers and of course you can plug in a wireless adapter so you can use a wireless controller. Great rig!

I believe it does have CD32 support out of the box too

Heres the description in PDF format

perfect to play Goal! with a good joypad

BTW anyone know if the analog joypad can move more than 8 ways in Amiga mouse mode?Shufflepuck Cafe will be useless if you can not play this way.

I have two of Paul's adapters at home for my CD32, and I've not had any problems yet. Highly recommended.

This would be the perfect opportunity for a decent production run of these things, I'd buy one from an online shop if they were available, and I'm sure a lot of other people would too. Playstation controllers are the easiest type to find anywhere.

I did previously offer to set up a page for these (for Paul Willingham) so people could order them from him direct, but he never got back to me about it...

Maybe if we asked for a show of interest in an adapter like this like Zetr0 did for those A600 Fast RAM cards, we'd discover there's enough demand to convince Paul to take up your offer. Also, it wouldn't hurt to ask him again, he might have changed his mind since the recent renewed interest.

*raises hand*

WHY would you want to use a playstation controller on any system, ever?
Jus' askin is all. I can't stand the thing. Then again I was spoiled by the Best Controller Ever (tm) - the Sega Saturn pad.

Still - I do believe that convertor would allow my Street Fighter Anniversary stick to work on the Miggy - can the 9-pin on Amiga's accept 6 button inputs?

Yes if the game is programmed for it. The CD32 pad had 6-buttons. (Red, blue, yellow, green, left & right shoulder)
