Notes

The 2018 revision of INTVDave's USB adapter for classic controllers - two controllers to one USB connector, seen by the computer as ordinary input devices.

What it takes

  • Intellivision controllers, including the ECS keyboard and piano in later forms of the range.
  • ColecoVision hand controllers with their twelve-key keypads, which is what makes an emulated ColecoVision playable as intended.
  • Atari 2600 sticks.

The interface has been revised repeatedly and kept available for years, which for a niche adapter is unusual and worth recording. The 2012 version is catalogued alongside this one; WHAT CHANGED BETWEEN THEM is not documented here and wants confirming.
