Long ago, I mentioned that Sega was set to release a clone of SNK’s Neo-Geo joystick for the PS2 in addition to the NGCD controller. It was to be the perfect complement to some of the great fighting classics that were announced for the PS2.

Over at Classic Gaming, the Retro Rogue got his hands on this new controller and put it though the paces while analyzing every detail of the controller. To put it in a nutshell, this PS2 controller is your best bet for playing classic games on your PS2, second only to the X-Arcade series. However, at least you don’t need an adapter to play this on your PS2. You can visit Classic Gaming to read the full review.

I found it especially interesting that there is an adapter available to ley you use these controllers on a real Neo-Geo system…

Classics Converter For Neo Geo - If you’re lucky enough to own a Neo Geo system, then this is for you. As collectors know, the ball grips on the original grip was prone to cracking over time. This converter was designed to allow the use of PS2 controllers on the Neo Geo, and with the Neo Geo Stick 2 you now have a complete replacement!
