Title: Amiga CD32 psx pad converter?
Post by: baboon on December 23, 2009, 01:38:53 PM
Anbody know where to get a PSX to CD32 joypad adapter? I've got a few psx pads around my house so to use these on my CD32 (once it turns up in the post ;)) would be great.

I've seen 'Amiga CD32 joystick and mouse adapter for Playstation controllers' on youtube but can't find anywhere on the net that seems to stock them?

Any help appreciated? :)

bear in mind, a megadrive pad wont give you the full control offered by a CD32 pad or CD32-adaptor.

the HoneyBee Competition Pro CD32 pad is one of my favourite pads of all time. A great pad in the Megadrive style, but with the full CD32 control.

However, they can be somewhat expensive to obtain these days as they are quite sought after.

I found a competiton pro cd32 pad on ebay for cheap so its all good. :) I'll contact that guy for a psx adapter later for my second pad.

Thank for the help peeps. :)
