    Xbox Magic Box adaptor + Dreamcast arcade stick

    Do all the buttons work on a Dreamcast Arcade Stick when used with a Magic Box adaptor for Mame, Final Burn, etc?

    Also, as most Capcom fighters have a credit button, how will this work as there are only 7 buttons on a Dreamcast controller/stick?

    Really want to play Marvel Super Heroes with a good arcade stick, but will I have problems as I wont be able to "Insert Coins"?

    Cheers

    No it doesn't work, it can't map to Z and C, only L and R.

            Hori saturn stick is what i use - probably your cheapest option (damrabbit is selling one in the trade forum for 20 quid)

              I use my Tekken 4 stick. Works perfectly.

                Sorry to sound daft folks, but just wanted a definitive answer before I shell out loads of cash.

                The Tekken 4 ps2 sticks, I understand they're a bit tres bonne. So I'd be able to grab a couple of ps2->xbox converters and use them on the xbox as well.

                Just wanted to check that there were no hdd saves deleting issues, as I gather Camps had this a while back.

                  Nah they should be fine. As far as I can gather, the differences between the Tekken 4 and SC2 sticks are purely cosmetic, and the SC2 stick works just fine for me via both magicbox and dreambox converters.

                  Just to be sure though, if plugging in a stick whilst the xbox is on, always connect the stick to the converter first and then the whole thing to the xbox. I believe connecting the stick to an already plugged in converter whilst the machine is on can cause non-recognition or "spazzing" of buttons.

                    The ?12.90 Dreambox their selling at Consoleplus.co.uk will definetly allow me to use an PS2 SC 2 stick on Xbox SC 2 game?
