Sega Master System Controller
The Master System uses a modified Atari 2600 pinout. No special components are needed.

- The 'TH' line is used as the photo diode input for the Light Phaser.
- This pad uses a pinout similar to many others. There is a comparison of MSX, Sega, Atari and other connectors on this page.
Tiny numbers can be found on most DB9 connectors; they're small but they're there. Be careful not to wire things backwards!
