Atari Gamestation Pro Gets a Major Controller Upgrade (vid#86) 

Steve, the master of adapters and the King of Controllers.

Don’t forget that The400 Mini is on the way! It’s an official Atari licensed product too. :)

It's basically a SNAC adapter for the MiSTer FPGA system. I've had very good luck using a USB-C male to USB-A female adapter along with several 2.4 Ghz USB controller receivers and the 8BitDo USB Bluetooth adapters. I try to stay with the 2.4 Ghz solutions whenever possible as they have noticeably less lag than Bluetooth. In all honesty, I wouldn't even care to own an Atari Game Station Pro if it were not for firmware version 1.30 and the ability to play other system ROMs on it. I've not tested all but, a large percentage of the MAME2000 games are playable.

The new SEGA wired and wireless controllers-despite having two input modes (including X-Input)-which would obviously be awesome to play Genesis games. A number of aftermarket PlayStation Classic 2.4 wireless controllers I’d gotten for between $2.50-$7, when that system was taking, work *perfectly* on my GSPs-and for four-player _Warlords._

Great video! Can't wait to see what you do with the GPA next.

Great Video!

I actually prefer the gamestation controllers to the CX40 for single button games. Kinda feels like an 80s computer joystick like I had on my C64. But the buttons on the stick are annoying for NES and newer and the paddle feels off... I also like the Hyperkin Trooper, as I can program the extra buttons to control select, reset, menu etc. I'd like to try the adapter for my Genesis Arcade sticks though. I see they are coming out with a new gamestation controller and gamepad too.

I'm curious about the built in paddle on the Gamestation Pro Controller. I've seen the controller work on a PC but apparently the paddle didn't? Have you ever tried using the joystick on a PC? I want to use the paddle for games like Tempest and Arkanoid.

play station 5 controllers do work via usb type c

can you play 4 users for example in MULE games

can you please test paddles and trackball as well?

Do I need to buy the X-Arcade 5 in 1 X-Adapter and hook up the Game Cube cable to the Gamer-Pro Advanced via the Bliss-Box Nintendo Game Cube cable adapter? I already own the 2 in 1 X-Adapter. Could this be used instead? I also sent you a Facebook message. Thanks!

Will this Gamer Pro Advanced device allow the Atari Single Player USB Fight Stick to be as a controller for the Atari Gamestation Pro?

Have you tried to use the Atari2600 Plus as a Joystick, plug its USB-C in to AGSP so AGSP powers it, use a USB-C data cable plugged into the A2600 Plus (Color=Color, Reset+Power)

Would that Magic NS controller adapter work if you just wanted to connect your Xbox controller to the gamestation pro without any of the other equipment?

Correction: They fell off the face of the Earth, after the failure of the AMIGA-CD32. It totally bankrupted them, but maybe somebody with a Commodore obsession bought the brand to make it respectable, again, like Atari has. Commodore always follows in Atari’s footsteps - from separate audio and video chips (the second, behind the 1979 Atari 400/800) in the C64, not to mention the chips’ specific designers, to literally paying a higher price than Atari had contracted to pay for the Amiga (although nobody uses Amigas professionally, the way well-know musicians still (have people) seek out Atari STs/STEs/Falcons/TTS machines, for their MIDI capabilities. Yeah, the Atari 520ST is where the DAW was invented, with Cubase. Don’t remember any lasting tech initiated by the Amiga that influenced so much future tech - although, to be fair, my Amiga 500 was a great time, in the mid-/late-‘80s, until they ended...

I wanted to get this months ago for i can custom use the Emulator , the controller turn me off to buying the Atari Gamestation Pro. Would rock the usb Neo Geo CD controller or a usb Genesis 6 button. Do u got a video for *the Pac-Man or Mega Man HDMI plug and play* ? Those had decent emulator, but if the controller breaks that it gone forever 😑

Does this actually work for the original 2600 paddle controllers? Can it do 4 player games like warlords? The dials on the stock controllers are small enough you loose your finite control.

Does this work for the X-Arcade Tankstick?

The device has been updated and everything is fine I entered a memory and unfortunately it does not appear on my device why

Can you use the 2600 trakball controller with the 5200 version of Missile Command? Or the 5200 trakball controller?
