doctor_shred Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Hi, anyone seen a controller like this? I initially thought it was an Atari Power Pad but weren't the A,B and C buttons all blue on those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Looks like a power pad where someone swapped in Jag buttons for C/A. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor_shred Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Yes, it certainly could be that. The previous owner said it was the controller sent out with Jaguar developer systems but I've not found anyone who can corroborate that.

doctor_shred Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 I do have this, I'll have to dig it out of a box to photograph it again. I believe it has a serial number beginning with B. I'll post another photo soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I can confirm that the grey controller was sent out with some Jaguar developer systems; pretty sure mine has all blue buttons, however. But it would be trivial to swap out the button colors, so who knows if Atari did that or if someone else did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I heard that these were developed for (or at least to be used with) the Falcon. I wonder if there's any truth to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I actually have been wanting a boxed version of this..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there's any truth to that. For the Atari STe - but not for the Mega STe or the TT030 - and the Falcon030. Unfortunately, very few existing ST games were updated to support the controllers or anything else attached to the Enhanced Joystick Ports.
