    Yes, if you have a V2 Sega Genesis adapter like the one that comes with the big six controller, you can use the controllers interchangeably on Saturn and Sega Genesis. And that should remain viable on Dreamcast as well when they drop the receiver for it.

    Yea -_-; I didn't realize it until it was uploaded. Apparently phone camera recordings need to be converted or else you get variable frame rate that looks like trash.

    I’ve been using it to play Monster Hunter Generations on Switch. I totally agree on the sticks being a bit small BUT, I’ve gotten used to them quickly. This is my favorite controller and I’m so stoked to finally have it. It’s the holy grail for me. I wish they would make it in the gray with the blue buttons.

    I do remember getting used to it and feeling better about it when I played with it on my second day with Smash Ultimate. I will give it a few more tries and maybe make a follow-up video, but only if my opinion changes. Thank you for the insightful comment.

    Is the controller supposed to be limited to the A and B face buttons on Switch? It seems X and Y do absolutely nothing when I pair my controller to the switch. Maybe the firmware needs to be reinstalled?

    Hola, sí debería funcionar sin problemas en una caja de TV. Este controlador no es bluetooth. Se conecta mediante un dongle USB de 2,4 ghz. P.S. I don't know how to speak Spanish. I used Google Translate. Here's what I said in English: Hi, yes it should work no problem on a TV box. This controller is not bluetooth. It connects using a 2.4 ghz USB dongle.

    Well if its a bug in sonic jam then its a bug in duke nukem 3d and quake. I tested both games and they drift forward slowly in 3D mode. Also, trigger functionality stops in 3d mode so no strafing....

    @shock44SquirrelyShock I got a reply from retro-bit and they said they are aware of the issue among many problems. They also said there working on a firmware update. Also, I posted on reddit and another user confirm the drift and button mapping problems in 3d mode in duke nukem, quake, and powerslave. I guess fps games are configured similarly on saturn thus causing the same mapping and drift issue. I have a real 3d pad as well and those games work flawlessly in 3d mode with triggers for strafe.
