So then he came voer and put a genesis controller into a coleco vision. Thus proceeded to play games. So we were like WHAT THE POOP then I came here and posted how weird it was that a genesis controller worked in a coleco vision. Thank you for your time. -------------------- i dont careRed text.

Yeah, and by the look of the ports on the back of the Revolution, the same thing will apply this next generation.

if at first you dont succeed redefine success Group: Members Posts: 7000 Member No.: 39 Joined: 13-October 03 Status: (0d)	Dude I used to have a coleco vision! We had a ton of games for it and we had the different controllers for rocky and this steering wheel for a racing game, it was tight! Also among the ton of games we had, we had the colecovision version of Donkey Kong which is pretty cool, I could never make it to the top of the first level though, but then again I was like 5 then. We sold the coleco though, it refused to work anymore anyway =( if it were here now I'd never sell it but my mom sold it when I was little -------------------- Gamertag: Nickshorts Wii Code 4638354374090569 Animal Crossing City Folk: Name: Nick Town: Pocky Code: 4554-4070-9159 Get ready for pokemon black!! ...Eventually! http://mfgg.taloncrosssmurfing.com/index.p...howtopic=167562

Uh... the power connectors in the controller plugs maybe???

Yeah, the controllers do require power and controllers from two different companies and/or two different systems are not guaranteed to work with each other

Oh, yeah, I considered that, but my 2600 was on the other side of the room and I am lazy beyond belief.

Then they shouldn't make them the same ports.

Chances are, if companies' controller ports are shaped the same, the power connectors are also shaped the same.
