Any Saturn pad adapters for 360?

Post by evil_ash_xero »

I was using a Keio SAT to PS converter, hooked into an Xconverter. Unfortunately, this causes a bit of lag.

Any more direct converters for this? I would really like to use my Sat pads on my 360. Some games simply demand it!

It's kind of annoying because of the 360 security protocol, you generally are going to have
to hack apart some existing pad or stick to wire something up for 360.

I use a FGWidget converter to convert saturn interface to 15 pin dsub,
and hacked apart a madkatz arcade gamestick (common ground, cheap)
as the donor 360 controller PCB.

Basically, eTokki adapter, Controller Converter Pro or XConverter360 + PS2 Saturn pad. Your only options beyond hacking and soldering a 360 pad.

I had one for my supergun [simple direct wired job]. Hacked up a 360 pad to the same db 15 connector - best way to do it imho... since just used it for a stick though...
