Using Adapters to SNAC

Unread post by Kannibal »

I have a Wingman SD on the way, which has plugs for both Dreamcast and Sega Saturn. I also plan to pick up a Wingman PS2, as there are several games I'd like to play with a modern controller, as well as my arcade stick. Setting aside the convenience of simply plugging the USB into the MiSTer, is there a benefit to using any of the Brook Super Converter/Wingman adapters for retro consoles with SNAC? Specifically regarding input delay, will it be closer to native? Having that peace of mind, I'd eventually like to pick up more retro adapters to use with SNAC, and perhaps any OEM controllers I come across.

Using an adaptor from USB to Snac is not going to help. It will add lag as first its converted to a format the console cant understand before going to the SNAC

Much better if you are using a USB controller to go straight to the mister, plus with a USB connection you can use the controller in the menus which you cant do via SNAC.
