Using a Genesis/Megadrive Controller on a Neo Geo or Supergun

After digging up my Neo Geo from storage, an issue I had was that the controller wasn’t fully working. I tried repairing it, but there was an issue with its PCB that I couldn’t fix. I then started looking for another solution. I’m not a big fan of the Neo Geo CD’s controllers dpad so I wanted to use a controller with a better dpad. My research led me to a Genesis to Neo Geo adapter. I go over the adapter in this video.
