hi,

 

I have some (~25 pcs) alternative pads for Jaguar.

in my opinion, it is worse than the original pad from Atari :) for collection only (for me)

 

they are new, unused, originally packed. Manufactured in Poland around '95.

 

Price: 9,99€ + P&P. - payment via PayPal

 

shipping: 8for most EU countries, 12for other like a US

 

if you have any questions - send me pm, pls

 

Piotr

 

 

I'll buy one if still available, please let me know. Thanks

I received mine last Saturday and gave it a try with Raiden. I found that while left-right worked well enough, up-down not so much and diagonals were almost impossible. Perhaps it just wasnt meant for Raiden. I'll give it a try with a few other games to see if it is any better. I do like the feel of it though.

I received my black Boomerang controller today, and spent about an hour playing a few different games. I have to say it's pretty much a disappointment.

 

The shell is a close copy of a Sega Genesis/Megadrive 3-button controller. I like the Sega so I was hoping to like this one. It _is_ comfortable to hold. The buttons have a kind of 'Fisher-Price' look to them, but I care about functionality a lot more than looks. I found the buttons work okay, but not great, and certainly no better than a regular Jaguar pad.

 

The D-pad, however... ai-yi-yi. Abysmal. It has a very strong clicking action, and requires quite deliberate, hard presses to get the controls to sense the input. I also find that the transition from one direction to another is very sloppy. You switch from left to right, say, and the control lingers on left while you've started pressing deliberately right.

 

Overall, it's a let-down, though to be honest, I didn't really expect it to be a great controller. I plugged in my regular Jag pad and was immediately impressed at how much better the standard controller is.

I got my parcel safely, so I can vouch for Piotr - he isn't running off to the Bahamas with a bagful of Jaguar loot.

 

Remember that's coming from Poland, so all the suspicious Homeland Security types are probably holding it up in US Customs.
