+Rick Reynolds Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Finally got to do just a little testing with mine. It's great! You may have heard me talking on podcast(s) about the arcade stick I created that can be either an Atari or Genesis controller. The Genesis compatibility feature was in anticipation of this adapter. It's really great playing arcade ports and/or arcade style games with a true arcade joystick on real Inty hardware! I only tried a couple of games so far: Ms Pacman and Boulder Dash -- so no real putting the keypad through any paces yet. But I saw no issues at all. Just great control. No strange sounds or anything like that either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sramirez2008 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Received my updated adapter yesterday and ran a few tests. I played River Raid, and Boulder Dash with my CX-40. I played Ms. Pac-Man and Christmas Carol with my 3-button Genesis controller. The adapter works well, each game played as expected and I did not experience any sound issues with Boulder Dash. BTW, my copy of Boulder Dash is S/N 0102. I love Boulder Dash...did I mention that I love Boulder Dash? Very satisfied customer. Thank you grips03! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 Thanks for the feedback! Would like to hear from the four other buyers if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) Just saw this...Again. It seems you built 9 or 10 of these and sold only 5? If so, I'd be interested in buying 1 if you have any available? I don't know how I dropped the ball on this?

Once I hear back from all the ones sold that they are working good for them I'll open sales again. Price might increase by $10 dues to costs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intymike Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Got mine today. It works perfectly. Highly recommended for every arcade game! Thanks a lot grisp03! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinMos3 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I feel like this would be a must-have for games like Boulder Dash and the DK games. My biggest issue is the button mapping. For Genesis controllers, why require B+C to be pressed for the 3rd Intv button? Would be so much better to map it the Intv buttons to A, B, and C.

In its current form it does not support Atari 2600 controller, its Genesis only. I may release it down the road if there is more interest. Selling 9 pieces of custom hardware it is hard to justify, need 20 orders. It supports 3 and 6 button Genesis controller. 6 button works in 3 button mode. Start button is currently mapped to 1+9 / 3+7 (Pause for many games). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 Adapter sales have been halted. One other person said they had audio sound issue. I'm done making stuff. If anyone has an issue with adapter send back for refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grips03 Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 Please note adapter uses 9v DC. If 9v AC is used fuse inside adapter can trip. AC can also cause noise via TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Helmet Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Hey guys... I was having the sound issued with my adapter, but found that the problem was actually the power supply that I'd used. Make sure you snag one of the power supplied from Digikey that is mentioned in the first post and you should have no problems. My adapter works great and i'm not hearing sound issues or anything like that. This is a great product and really makes playing the arcade style games on the Inty a fun experience. Also thanks to grips03 for all of the support over DM! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I just want to say my adapter has been working perfectly ever since I purchased it earlier this year.. No issues whatsoever. I've already been thoroughly enjoying my Grips03 Inty arcade controller for quite some time, and now, being able to use a Genesis controller on the Inty is the icing on the cake! I highly recommend buying one of these controller adapters! :thumbsup: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting to play Astro Invader with a Sega Genesis Arcade Power Stick is awesome! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
