Brook Super Converter: PS3/PS4 to NeoGeo Adapter

Brook gives fans of the Neo Geo AES and Neo-Geo CD console a modern way to control its arcade classic games with the Super Converter: PS3/PS4 to Neo-Geo Adapter.

From 1991 to 2004, the SNK Neo-Geo presented some of the best arcade experiences available.  The company uniquely positioned itself in the home console market with the AES, a console version of its arcade board, bring arcade-perfect experience at a time where other 16-bit consoles couldn't compare.  For the few that could afford that experience, it was one to remember.  Later, SNK introduced the Neo-Geo CD, attempting to lower the costs to own its library of games with CD technology.

Filling the Void

Accessing a replacement controller or gamepad is a challenge, given the unique 15 pin configuration on the original controller.  Additionally, Neo Geo's position in the market as a premium-cost machine did not see many 3rd party peripherals in its lifetime. That scarcity is remedied through Brook's Super Converter, which allows PS3 and PS4 Fightsticks and gamepads - both wired and wireless - to control the Neo-Geo AES or Neo-Geo CD.

Features

• Compatible with PS3 or PS4 gamepads and joysticks
• Auto-register controllers
• Optimal button mapping (now set to "Type C" map after firmware upgrade)
• Combo keys to switch between three Neo-Geo button control types (A, B, C) 
• Vibration support (PC only)
• Lightweight and USB-sized
• Hot swapping controllers
• PC control via X-Input (XID)
• Firmware upgradeable
  
  

Type A, B and C Control

The Neo-Geo adopted 3 types of button controls.  "Type A" arranges the buttons to the orientation of Neo-Geo CD's gamepad.  "Type B" comports to the popular "King of Fighters" series.  Finally "Type-C" represents the classic Neo-Geo joystick.

Thanks to a downloadable v1.1 firmware update, the Brook Super Converter PS3/PS4 to Neo-Geo Adapter will default to the "Type C" control.  You can easily switch to the remaining control types via pressing the "PS" button on the device, and a corresponding button on the Playstation 3 or 4 controller.  You can find a link to download the firmware update by clicking the "Support" tab, or if on a mobile device, clicking here.  Below is a diagram of the control types, plus the activation combo key:
