Here is our new release. It don't come with link port. But it can plug in to original 3DO joypad. So, it can use as first joypad or last joypad.

Is there any chance that you will release a second version that will support the link port so that multiple controllers can be used? Also, does it support a 3 button and 6 button mode? There were SNES to 3DO adapters that had a switch for 3/6 button modes and they also supported daisy chaining multiple controllers together.

I like your adapter, however, I do have some concerns.

#1> Will you be making a version that supports true analog so we can use steering wheels and such? 3DO did support such perpipherals and it would be most appreciative if we could use our PSX steering wheels (other than the V3 which supports digital input) to play Need for Speed and F1. Also, all the first person games like Killing Time, PO'ed.... even Star Fighter and Wing Commander would benefit from a more advanced version of this adapter. Even if we couldn't use the steering wheel, being able to use both analog sticks in true analog would be very helpful.

#2> If you do do another adapter, would you be willing to map the START button to the TRIANGLE. Street Fighter and Primal Rage would be much more playable with it re-mapped.

I look forward to your reply.

GirDraxa,

You already buy one ? What your suggest for key mapping for all keys ?
True analog is very different than normal pad. Normal pad only have "0" and "1" output. But analog have "00" to "FF" output that need 3DO hardware and software support. I don't think it is support it. Do you have any 3DO game that support it ? Or do you know any analog device for 3DO ? I also want to see it. Thanks.

Hello,

Yes, I already bought one.

Actually, the 3DO does support true analog. Games like :

Wing Commander 3
Star Fighter
PO'ed
Killing Time
Need for Speed
Super Wing Commander
F-1 GP
Phoenix 3

and so much more all offer support for 3DO's flight stick, as well as the racing games had use of the ultra-rare HAS steering wheel.

While I am unwilling to loan you my steering wheel, I would loan you a flight stick if it's truely nessessary.

Oh, and also, I would map the trianlge button to being Start (Play) so that it would be more fun for playing Street fighter II Turbo and Primal Rage.
