old_system_guy22 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I have an extensive mid 80's to present day console collection but just recently started collecting earlier things so i'm not too familiar with Atari's yet...i just picked up my first heavy sixer the other day for 5 bucks and it works beautifully..i was wondering if i were to go digging for my box of Sega periferals would i be able to use a Genesis controller on my new 6 switch..... Thanks for your time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jboypacman Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 you should be able to use a sega genesis controller for your atari 2600 i have in the past and had no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starhopper Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 you should be able to use a sega genesis controller for your atari 2600 i have in the past and had no problems. It takes some getting used to, though. There's just something fundamentally wrong with playing Pac-Man without a joystick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Personally I believe that it makes for more enjoyable long term play for you no longer get blisters when palying a game for hours on end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes some getting used to, though. There's just something fundamentally wrong with playing Pac-Man without a joystick I'm with you on that. Pac Man without a stick hurts your hand more!
