AtariLeaf Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 For those of you who didn't make it to the recent Cocofest or haven't heard of this item, it is worth checking out. It is a Sega Genesis to Tandy Coco joystick adapter. Now you can use a Genesis pad or any regular 9 pin Atari style joystick on a coco. If you use a Genesis pad it does support for two buttons so you can play games like Rampage that use two buttons. This is a great alternative to the stock coco sticks. I just ordered one and recommend other coco gamers do the same. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2359462640/permalink/10154171148002641/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz73 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Awesome! I'll be ordering one, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sm3 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 My adapter came in today and I must say that I'm impressed. I'm new to the Color Computer world and didn't have any joysticks for it (because I'm picky). I did have several brand new old stock SEGA Genesis controllers though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebulon Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I have one of these and they're great. There were about three different companies (including Wico) back in the day that made these: https://archive.org/stream/rainbowmagazine-1983-08/The_Rainbow_Magazine_08_1983#page/n159/mode/2up I'm hoping for two things: 1) something just like what's shown in the link above (super simple since one fire button is enough for 99(% of CoCo 1 and 2 games). 2) And something a bit fancier (same thing but both a 9-pin D-shell and a DIN on each port; 4 ports total). That way there'd be no more plugging and unplugging of the adapter when you want to switch from analog to digital controls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
