nosweargamer Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 This adapter is GREAT! It let's you use any Sega Genesis controller with 2 button games on the Atari 7800! You can play single button games with a Genesis controller without the adapter, but for 7800 2 button games, like Ninja Golf, you need this!

RickR Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 This is totally awesome and a great deal. I have an NES gamepad adapted for use on the 7800, which I love. That makes it hard to justify buying this. But I'm tempted nonetheless. Anyone that is still using the 7800 pro-line controller needs to check this out.

The Professor Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 @nosweargamer great review! @RickR, have you ever used an Atari 7800 European gamepad? I'm wondering how that would feel compared to an adapted NES gamepad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 @nosweargamer great review! @RickR, have you ever used an Atari 7800 European gamepad? I'm wondering how that would feel compared to an adapted NES gamepad. Yes, I've used the Atari gamepad. I like it, especially the little screw in extender. But the buttons are a little too squishy and they should be closer to the top of the pad. It's very close to the NES pad, but the NES buttons are perfect.

MalakZero Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 I just got my adapter in the mail today and it is amazing! Before this, all I had was the proline joystick to use for two button games....what a difference. @nosweargamer I found the seagull78 thanks to your video review, so thanks for posting it.

Your Welcome! To me, the seagull78 is a must have for modern 7800 owners. Even though the Europad was a step in the right direction, I feel that most Sega Genesis controllers out control it. And for those stuck with a pro line, I can't say enough how much an improvement it is to play games without all the hand cramps.

MalakZero Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Genesis gamepads are like Sharpie markers, they always end up in random places, you never remember buying them but somehow have crap-ton of them...
