I just found this. He is asking a lot. But anyhow it says rare playstation style for atari. I don't remember any playstation style for atari back in the day. Anyone seen any thing like this before. Or can anyone tell what name is hiding under the cord so I don't have to ask.

odds are it's a POS from a famiclone. Famiclones often have those connectors.

 

edit: wait a second. I just saw who's selling it--why not just message him, he's on the forum.

Even worse... it's from one of those 5 billion in 1 block LCD games...:

Nah, it's still a famiclone--they just stuck a cheapo lcd game on the main clone system/controller for added sales.

I'm pretty sure you're the winner though. Font on the text is right and everything.

Assuming it actually does work for atari and sega (I have serious doubts), I might be tempted to throw $3 away on it.

I don't know if this is an obvious scam or the seller has no idea, but this has a 99% probability from being from a cheap NOAC Famiclone that is barely worth it's incredibly low weight in plastic. Because of surplus parts from the 80's, DB-E nine pin connectors are extremely cheap in China, the ONLY reason they are used.

 

There's a lot of confusion about this conector when it comes to Famiclones, since afterall it's the same physical shape as Atari/C64, Master System and even Sega Genesis controllers.

 

But heres' the important bit:

 

Famiclone DB-E connetors are NOT compatible with any Atari OR Sega console. The Famiclone DB-E standard is actually an NES 7 pin connector ported to the DB-E shape to save money in the manufacturing costs in China. You could modify this to get it working on a real NES, but it's no more an Atari or Sega controller because the plug is the same than a PS3 controller is for a computer running Windows 95 based on the fact that they both have USB ports.
