Is there an adaptor to use a Jaguar controller on the 7800?

[sirlynxalot]

I found this one, which would physically connect it and at least make it useable with 2600 games and 1 button 7800 games

It doesn't seem clear to me that it will provide the two button functionality that some of the 7800 game library requires.  I'd think they would specify that if it were part of the adapter. 

 

Any ideas if this adapter is OK for two button 7800 functionality, or if there is another similar adapter that does provide that functionality?

According to the review it doesn't work flawlessly on the 7800.

I can confirm that on top of the Best adapter above, you'll also need a Seagull adapter to enable two button play using the Jag pad and 7800:

The Best adapter by itself only allows single button play with the 7800.

There's a thread - I'm not linking it, but it's on the forum - that's being developed by Danjovic.

This will allow all-buttons' and keypad functionality for the 7800.

Note though, per Danjovic:
