Sega Mega D-pad Adapter for the Commodore 64 and the Amiga

A number of different  models of D-pad controllers have been  marketed for the Sega Megadrive (II).
The controllers for these machines are loved by retro console enthusiasts, and with the help of the Sega Mega D-pad Adapter it is now also possible to use these controllers on your Commodore 64 / 128 and Amiga computers.
Note that even though the Commodore machines and the Sega Mega Drive have the same 9-pin Sub-D connection, they are not electrically interchangeable and can seriously damage your beloved machine.
