+Black_Tiger Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) This Neo Geo X controller has been modified for use on Intellivision II and Sears Video Arcade systems, or any Intellivision modified with the same controller port connection. There is a passthrough controller port on the back which allows you to connect a stock Intellivision controller and use both at the same time. This way you can use an Intellivision numberpad at any time while the joystick is still active. Typically you'll only use the stock controller for game settings and to begin a game. This joystick makes it very easy to play the many new arcade ports and platforming/action games that continue to be released each year. This controller does not require an addition power source. Just plug it in and it's good to go. $115 USD shipping to U.S. $150 CAD shipped to Canada.

mr_me Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) Are all the buttons wired up? Do the diagonals work in Mazeatron, Centipede, Worm Whomper? In other words, is pin 9 wired up? Edited February 12, 2020 by mr_me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, is pin 9 wired up? Thanks for giving me something a reason to fully explore exactly how diagonal movement works on this stick. Doing circles in Worm Womper, it at first looked and felt like an 8-directional NES game. But I narrowed down the exact quirks it has for diagonal directions: You can't go from stationary directly into a diagonal direction. If you go from stationary to up direction, you can move into up-right direction, but not up-left without crossing left first. If you go from stationary to down direction, you can move into down-left direction, but not down-right without crossing right first. If you go from stationary to right direction, you can move into down-right direction, but not up-right without crossing down first. If you go from stationary to left direction, you can move into up-left direction, but not down-left without crossing down first. Sort of rolling the stick similar to how one might move in 360 degree Intellivision games leads to circular movement. I don't know if this is a quirk from the Neo Geo X stick having a 4-way gate, the translation of Intellivision directions to the stick or both. Still works great for games like new Donkey Kongs, Princess Quest and Ninja Odyssey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 In worm whomper and without pin 9 , up-left should give up, up-right should give right, down-right should give down, and down-left should give left. Worm whomper has some momentum so when you change between vertical and horizontal movement you get a bit of diagonal. With this joystick diagonals should work perfectly fine with Snafu, Q-bert, and Venture. These three cartridges can make diagonals without pin 9. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
