2600 wireless controller solution

[WaverBoy]

I just snagged a pair of 8BitDo M30 2.4GHz wireless controllers for my soon-to-be-delivered Analogue Mega SG console and I was of course hoping that they would work flawlessly with my Atari 2600 but apparently that’s not the case. Has anyone found a simple ready-made adapter that works nice and easy?

If you are not afraid from opening your 8bitdo receiver and trying the solution that RevEng found for his 8bitdo bluetooth receiver. It worked for me might work for you too here is a link.

You could also build a pass-through adapter that will connect between the Atari and the 8Bitdo receiver.

It requires more soldering, but you don't need to mod the receiver.
