Working great on IIgs

Using mine on a IIgs with a Cirka SNES USB controller. (The Cirka controllers are some of the best re-production of the original SNES pads.) Works great, highly recommended. You'll have to excuse me, Bubble Bobble just finished loading.

Works great!

I also purchased the controller recommended in the documentation. They both work perfectly. It's nice using a "modern" controller with on the Apple //e and //c.

Used with an Apple IIe and MadCatz USB gamepad

Retroconnector is working as expected with MadCatz Controller.
I was unable to use my Xbox 360 wired USB controller with it.

Very satisfied and interface is working great.

Thanks. Review Image
