Genesis SNAC Issue

Unread post by mb426 »

I have bought a 6 pack of snac adapters from aliexpress, and I can get the NES & SNES working on their official controllers, but the genesis doesn't work for most games, I could get it working on one game, and other games only the down d pad button is working?

In menu you can choose between 3 and 6 button mode in core.
Maybe is this the problem ?

Those options were already off by default, only buttons seems the work with golden axe are d pad and B, same with sonic trilogy, however it doesn't work at all with shining force.

Similar with me. Genesis is not working. Strange. Any more ideas?

Official SEGA controller, or a third party one?

Forget it! My mistake. I printed an enclosure and the USB stick did not connect properly due to the enclosure :roll:

So I bought another USB SNAC, and it worked playing sega genesis with all buttons.

So obviously I bought some snac set from ali express , but obviously it was badly soldered/wired.
