I prefer the extra discomfort of the original side cable SMS controller. Plus it has the removable middle piece for screwing in a joystick.

The Dempa Xe-1ap was even further ahead by 6 years.

For a second I thought that was a Playdia.

FYI the throttle also twists 360 so you can have it move along the track in any direction. Doesn't change what the axis does, just which way you push it.

Honestly? When I first played Sonic on the MD I never got the idea behind the speed. It looked cool but zooming through the levels wasn't for me. But I got into over time. Sonic 1 SMS is still one of my faves. Along with Sonic Generations. My Sonic collection in 2014

Loved the series and the games. Spent way too much at the arcades.

Costco NZ were selling Series X at half price. Obviously to clear stock.

Here's the link cable pinouts from technopop.net for those interested. Can easily be made from two dead controller cables.

Not a myth. Probably most of them are just lost to time. I still have mine I bought from new.

For those who don't know, Robocop 3 was originally released with a hardware key that you had to have plugged in to play the game. It was circumvented very quickly.

Top tier Amiga games. Sunk many hours into each.

Turns out I started on issue 22. Amiga Format was hard to get in NZ, it was a special order at the stationary shop, didn't always come in and was $20 NZD. Still, I also bought Amiga Power when that released too.

Good morning. RR4 is a good call, but which controller to use?
