Swami Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 This digital/analog adapter that you can use with bohoki's adapter to use PSX/PS2 controllers (and PS3 with an additional adapter) and the official N64 controller on the 5200 has gone from $35 to about $100 in the last couple months. Meanwhile, the mostly useless USB version lingers at $13. There are other ways to use a PSX/PS2 controller with the 5200, but only in digital mode, as far as I know. Investigation into this topic is still limited. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Use-any-PS2-Dual-Shock-N64-Controller-Pad-on-PC-w-Innovation-Smart-Joy-Emulator/173255022839?hash=item2856cdd8f7:g:URMAAMXQO21RnmFk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0078265317 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 With a masterplay clone and a tototek to psx adapter I can use psx controllers on 5200. And theanalog thumbsticks work also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ave1 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Sometimes handing out knowledge results in people thinking they can make a buck off of it. Wow- I can see $40 or $50, but $100 is scalping territory. That's sad that the adapter is now only available to the rich and famous...

S1500 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I still have a PS2 - > USB adatper I bought in Poland many years ago. Worked great until driver-wise, it no longer worked on Windows 7 on up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 With a masterplay clone and a tototek to psx adapter I can use psx controllers on 5200. And theanalog thumbsticks work also. I don't have the Masterplay clone and don't expect to get one soon, since both suppliers have gone on an indeterminate hiatus. So, can you tell me, with your MPC/tototek/dual shock setup with Super Breakout, can you get the paddle to stop at 6 to 8 different positions on the screen with this setup or does it just go full left/full right/ starting position? Either way, being able to use the PS2 analog stick as even a digital stick would still be a nice option for numerous games. I think Missile Command should have the same phenomenon: full up/down/left/right if the analog stick is converted to digital. Hopefully, someone will offer a device with analog and digital capacity to continue availability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0078265317 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Its not full analog I think. But thumbsticks are awesome for pacman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
