Sega Genesis to PC Adapter question

[AirRandom]

Anyone know where I can find instructions on how to build a good Genesis to PC adapter? I have this site, the ONLY one I've been able to find so far:

http://www.geocities.com/S_L_B_K/Science.html

but that's only for one. I need one that takes two controllers, possibly more. It shouldn't be too hard, the Genesis fits tightly in a serial port.

why not find a website which sells one that is easy to use, reliable and importantly already fully assembled with no tweaking necisary.

For example the ps1/ps2/n64 adapter I have bought can be seen at this address: http://www.consoleplus.co.uk/catalog...roducts_id=239

Nobody sells them... the Genesis is way too old and the fanbase too small to sell anything profitably. Obviously the N64 and playstation will have a million and one adapters for them that are on sale.

And I like making my own stuff. So any useful suggestions?

Fanbase too small? Nah, the Genny still has a pretty large cult following. Unfortunately it is as you said. The system has been off the market far too long, and so theres less of a chance that they'd make something like this these days.

So... anyone know where I can get directions to make one myself?

Well, finding a way to do it for the genisis is kind of hard unless you have a good grasp of electronics (which I don't...), but if you're willing to settle for a saturn pad which is very similar, you can just hook up two of these to your comp: http://www.gocybershopelectronics.co...ls.asp?ID=1404

aaagh, plans for one EXIST, but now they're buried in the backwoods of the intarweb. Thought that someone here might know.
