I followed this diagram to mod a 3 button Genesis controller to work with the X68000, but (big shocker), only the D-pad works... obviously since those pins didn't change.

Can anyone verify that this diagram is accurate? I double checked my soldering using DMM continuity test and every pin is reaching the board as per the diagram. I'm doing this directly to the controller's board instead of making an adapter.

Thanks!

That image doesn't seem to be the same as the one found on this forum:

Several people reported success with this one.

False alarm. Found a cold solder joint on my controller's board. Reflowed and now fully working. This diagram works fine for regular 3 button Genesis controllers!
