Sega Controller Mod

Kratos · 16-August-05, 02:26 PM

I have I few Sega Genesis controllers sitting around from my days of oldschool glory. (Sonic 3 cleared with all Chaos Emeralds in only 2 hours.

) Their space is worth more than their company, right now. However, and old idea caused me to wonder if I could use these vintage items for my PC gaming. If you look at the back of your PC, you notice the serial port on the back. The Sega Controller fits like a dream, but, several Google Searches yeild nothing as fars as drivers. If it comes down to it, dissecting a controller to add a USB cable is fine with me. Simply link me to a guide and I'll be happy!

Thanks! I've seen those online before, but, like any modder, I like DIY stuff. I'll look into it!
