Genesis controller information?

[MagitekAngel]

So, Sega released a shit-ton of different controllers for the Genesis. Is there a database anywhere compiling information on all of them?

I don't have an answer for you, but I would be interested to know what's out there as well. One YouTuber in particular (DanesGames) has been showing off a lot of Genesis/MegaDrive that I never even knew existed! There seems to be a ton of different controllers out there for it.

SegaRetro has a good database on hardware.

Nice! This looks like a great resource of information. I've already learned something new--Behold, the Sega Action Chair!

That's a great database! They don't quite seem to have everything - ie: the various mainboard revisions for the Model 1 and 2, as well as individual variations of the 6 button pad - but there is definitely lots of stuff I have never seen before.

Neat! I hadn't seen that before.

They don't have everything, but they frequently go onto boards like Sonic Retro and Sega-16 and ask people to help them improve their database. They WANT to have everything.
