Hello,

Does anyone know if there are problems with using two identical gamepads on a mac.Would the mac recognise them as two distinct devices? I would like to use two Gravis Eliminator USB pads for VGS and games like Cro-Mag.

Thanks.

It will recognise them as two distinct pads, and should work flawlessly like that.

Yeah, I have two iShock gamepads connected to my iMac and they work fine under the SNES emulator. I'm sure it will work fine under VGS.

Slick shoes?!! Are you crazy?!!

Yes, most of the Gravis gamepads support 2 controllers. If you look at the control panel for Gravis, you will see indicators to accomodate two controls.
