So why does 6-button controllers matter here anyway? More on that later.

Engineer Robert Dale Smith has just released a controller adapter that accepts Super Nintendo/Super Famicom controllers and converts their signal for use on a 3DO console he’s calling it the SNES-2-3DO.īefore getting into the adapter itself, I should first mention that there were at least one functionally similar 3rd party adapter (e.g 3D-Zero Super NES Controller Adapter) and a couple of licensed 6-button controllers (Hori’s Fighting Commander and Capcom’s Soldier Pad) that saw release during the console’s lifespan, but their current availability on the second hand market is scarce and are therefore considered as collector items among 3DO enthusiasts.
