Who cares what it looks like? It's a Saturn USB pad. Although that D-pad looks a little weird compared to the previous version.
Just got mine in today. I m pretty certain these will work on my PS3. Will test when time allows. The pad feels like the original saturn pad. Clicky shoulder buttons, relaxed D-pad and the usual face buttons. They have used the original cast it seems, since it retains all the "play, pause, stop, next, previous, repeat" icons embossed on top of the corresponding buttons. the cord is quite long, and white. The Start button is made of grip-rubber, coloured red, and all the buttons have a nice feeling when pressed. As with the original, this is a very lite controller. for 9 GBP a pop, I m happy.
you know what would be cool, replace the crappy blue buttons with those from a White Saturn pad. That would be very cool :nod: In fact I think I'll do that.
"Warning: Packaging has to be kept since it contains important information." Haha, like they need to tell people like US to keep the box! As soon as I have some cash.... crap, that will be a while. They have layaway?
HAH even better! Looks like the USA site has controllers for $14.99 initial (3-month subscription) and $12.95 individual.
Promotional code "segafans" gives 15% off I ordered three pads, these are sure to be out of supply fast.
Ugggh. Someone buy an extra extra so I can get that one from them when I have money. Someone who won't be afraid of having an extra if I sketch out, even though I assure you I wont.
They said they will run out soon. Been playing on the site all day. Man it's buggy as fuck. Half the games crash, or don't award rings properly..
Went ahead and ordered two, cant hurt. Edit: Or not, transaction declined. Will try one more time >< Edit 2 : Credit worked, oh well
Woo, I got a gig working at one of my former employers for this holiday week beause my friend/ex-coworker is on vacation. Will order... Tomorrow? Hope I make it. Two please!
Oh wow, can you just buy the controller? I don't want crappy Applet emulation for game I already have/have ROMs for. And if I have to resort to eBay or something to get one once I have enough money for it, how can you spot a fake? Just from the pictures? Brands? Sellers?
it's only $12 with the discount code and another 12 for the second once + shipping, $35ish for 2, not bad at all.
With the membership and fees ($4.99 each controller after 1st one shipping) $53 for 3 months of sega and the three pads.
No way am I signing up for that, I'd rather buy the actual game carts. If it included a fast (full speed on 2ghz+), professionally-developed Saturn emulator maybe I'd consider. Where do you go to just buy the pads? There doesn't seem to be any store link.
you can't buy the pads without joining. If you sign up and want only one, it's $14 with the code, you get one pad for free.
