Advice on controller adapters for Dreamcast

Hi there,

I’ve recently picked up a Dreamcast. Had one as a kid and loved it, and now getting back into it. I remember loving the controller back then, but coming back to it now - it’s not ideal for 2D fighting games at all. I’m way better at Street Fighter Alpha 3 than this Dreamcast thinks!

I’m looking for a way to use Saturn controllers on the Dreamcast. Does anybody know of a product still being produced to accomplish this? If so, I have questions:

Does it support VMU somehow? Does it add any perceptible lag? Would it work with official wired Saturn controllers as well as more modern 2.4Ghz wireless aftermarket Saturn controllers?

Thanks in advance!

If you had the choice of waking up tomorrow in a different “real world”: one which instantly becomes recognizable to you as your real life once you open your eyes - everything is better for you there and you are surrounded by loved ones and healthy relationships and whatever you consider ideal - only this current existence you are experiencing as you read this becomes apparent as a dream and none of it was real and everybody you know today was imaginary - you will never forget it or them but have to live with the knowledge that it was a dream; or keep living the life you have now as normal?
