[Note: Based on a non-random sample of size 2, it was found that unmodified Sega controllers work fine on the 2600/7800, with B acting as the single fire button. As an aside, Sega Master System controllers (model 3020) work too, with button 1 as the fire button.

Any damage done to your Atari 7800 or Atari 2600. 2. Any damage done to the Sega Genesis Controller. 3. Any errors in these instructions. This design is free for you to make your own controllers or adaptors. If you make controllers or adaptors to sell to other people, I would like (no surprise here) a cut of the profits. The only other thing I ask is that if make your own, drop me an email so I get an idea of how many people are using my design. I’m not going to give step by step instructions.
