The official Commodore CD32 pad isn't very nice to use. The third party Competition Pro CD32 gamepad is much nicer. It's the same as the pads they made for the SNES back in the day. Comfortable to use and has auto fire switches for each button too.

If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

I've got the Competition Pro CD32 and i just hate the Sponginess of the buttons.

Hello ,
I bought a boomerang pad for the CD32 and it works fine with the CD32 , but in my A600 some games as for example Street fighter II can't use the 2 buttons...
So i bought a sega megadrive pad with 6 buttons and all games are working well with it (the 2 buttons recognised are the B and C) so i think it is one of the best pad for the amiga.
This answer just to help people who are looking for a pad !!
On the Sega pad Is there no way of reading the other buttons on the amiga? Surely they must be independant to each other? I have several Sega Megadrive pads and would love to use them on my Amiga or CD32 . . .

There is probably a way to do that but how to ?
Sorry i don't know.
The CD32 and Sega Megadrive use different methods of accessing those extra buttons.
I think the CD32 is easier to interpret, as it's kind of a direct conection to each button, but the Megadrive is a different beast altoghether. The first two buttons (mapped as B & C) stick to the Atari standard, but as for the rest .... who knows!
