Mcbazel Brook Wingman SD Converter for Xbox 360/Xbox One/Xbox Elite 1&2/Xbox Series X&S/PS3/PS4/PS5/Switch Pro Controller to Sega Dreamcast & Saturn Console

I had a specific use case in mind with this. Basically, racing wheels are big and bulky, and very expensive for Saturn, so I didn't want console specific wheels. I wanted to be able to get two generic wheels and use them with both Saturn and Dreamcast. I picked up a "Subsonic Racing Wheel Universal" (cheap off craigslist), which supports PC, Xbox one, PS3, and PS4. Verified that it worked in my PC, and checked the button/wheel mapping and found that it was using the left analog stick (left/right) for the wheel, the pedals map to LT & RT. I then tried using the wheel plugged into a Brook Wingman SD with my Saturn. (I did have to plug in an xbox one controller into the wheel, since that's how you put the wheel it into a specific system mode.) I loaded up Daytona Championship Circuit, and lost badly, but the controller worked great! Better than expected, actually, where the wheel worked correctly, and was in analog mode, the pedals were mapped correctly, and, bonus, the paddles on the wheel for shifting gears were also mapped correctly for shifting gears. I'm not sure that all games will work with the same mapping, but I was very pleased that everything worked as expected on the Saturn. Will update if it does or doesn't work with Dreamcast, but I suspect it will work just fine. UPDATE: I updated the firmware, and using a racing wheel does work with Dreamcast as well. Only downside is that Dreamcast has fewer buttons, so the mapping is not quite as good. But, Wingman lets you remap on the fly, so I was able to get it working how I wanted. Great product, and I love Brook for this stuff! Their retro fight stick board is amazing too.

I tested functionality for the PS3/PS4 T80 controller, and everything seems to be working! I have my T80 in PS3 mode and the Wingman SD in gamepad mode, which can be reached by pressing Share + Triangle. Ensure the LED indicator light is permanently green. Check the manual for more button mapping information. Gas, brake, steering, select, and back are mapped correctly. Update 9/1/2022: Upon further testing, the Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas 4 also works through the adapter for use with Afterburner II in Yu Suzuki Game Works Vol. 1. However, not all buttons are mapped intuitively, and would require remapping in software for best use.

I love this adapter, pair it with an Xbox One controller and you have the perfect wireless Dreamcast controller replacement. There is no perceivable lag, it just works. Highly recommended.

I bought this on Gunnermans review, it actually works pretty great. I got confused setting it up as it's not just plug and play. You set the m30 to switch mode, dont plug it in. Instead hold the button on the brook adapter until it blinks rapidly, then turn on the m30 in switch mode, then hold the sync button on the m30 until it turns off and on. Should be set up when the p1 light comes on.

This thing is incredibly responsive. My only gripe is that the analog stick doesn't work as well as it should. For instance, in NiGHTS, where you have to make subtle charges in flight, you're going all over the place with a PS4 controller. It's like I'm on a skating rink. With that said, it's interesting how much better a PS4 controller is than the old Saturn pad when it comes to the buttons. PS4 is -way- more responsive. They react quicker on screen and you can hit them in rapid succession quicker. Of course, my saturn controller is probably 25 years old.

I have been looking for the longest time for a way to attach a modern, high quality arcade stick to my Saturn, and this fits the bill perfectly. Easy to use, good compatibility (update the firmware). I bought two so player 2 could get in on the action as well. I have zero regrets.

Damn near lag less on both DC and saturn, but holy hell is this thing annoying to map your arcade stick for sega saturn.

i have about seven fight sticks with all different set up from 360 to custom pcb from brook. and i can tell you that this unit is the best thing to come out for the sega dreamcast. also the memory bank in it of 200 block is also good feature to have if you don't have a vmu. if your looking to get a budget optional then building a another stick for that console only. then get this, you won't be disappointed

At first you might think, like I did, that this little adapter is pricey. But the reality is that Brooks provides us with such a great quality product here that you cannot complain whatsoever. I bought one to use with my fight stick and it works wonder. In fact this adapter works just like the other PSX/PS2 adapter they make if not providing even more value since it has an integrated VMU in it giving much needed extra blocks of saved game memory.

L'azienda Brook è specializzata nella realizzazione di convertitori che permettono di utilizzare dispositivi incompatibili tra di loro. In questo caso abbiamo un prodotto che ci permette di utilizzare i Joypad di Xbox e Playstation su vecchie console Sega: il Saturn e il Dreamcast. La procedura di accoppiamento è molto semplice: -Una volta inserito il converter nella porta della console basta premere il pulsante presente su quest'ultimo e il pulsante di paring sul controller. I dispositivi si accoppiano nel giro di qualche secondo. Molto facile anche la procedura di aggiornamento del firmware Per la console Dreamcast è prevista anche la funzione di memory card.

Nice. Good. Works with saturn and dreamcast, also inside memory card space for save game data

Tengo varios encoders de Brook, y todos funcionan desde el primer momento sin hacer nada. Por eso me sorprendió que únicamente funcionase uno de los seis fightsticks que tengo al conectarles el adaptador, máxime cuando 4 de ellos llevan encoders de la propia marca. Finalmente decidí descargar la aplicación para actualizar el software del adaptador y esa fue la solución. Todos funcionan sin problemas, excepto uno, y supongo que es porque el encoder es una placa de desarrollo Pro micro. El input lag, prácticamente 0, como es lo habitual en la marca. También es un acierto los 200 bloques de memoria interna para guardar partidas. Pero tengo un par de quejas. A falta de probar un poco más, no he conseguido hacer funcionar la aplicación de emulación de la VMU, y todo el sistema de remapeo y cambio de modo, me parece algo confuso y nada sencillo. Y lo que menos me gusta es lo aparatoso que es el adaptador en sí. Personalmente, hubiese pagado lo mismo si tan solo fuese válido para Dreamcast. El hecho de ser compatible también con Sega Saturn, conlleva el tener otro cable más colgando, lo que le hace menos idóneo para utilizarlo en mods de fightstick. No es lo ideal, pero la adquisición de una Retroboard de Brook en España, parace complicado actualmente. En resumen, un buen producto que te permitirá usar casi cualquier mando USB o inalámbrico en tu vieja Dreamcast por un precio razonable.

Super article. Il permet de brancher, entre autre un stick arcade SEGA Astro City en USB ou une manette DualShock 4 Sony en BT ou USB sur une DREAMCAST et une SATURN. Fonctionnement parfait: pas de lag, et synchronisation sans fil ultra rapide.
