Not bad at $30 for a new pad (assuming it's decent quality) and an adapter, but have they fixed the tap incompatibility yet?  It kinda bugs me that they don't mention it, but at least they're supposedly working on it for future revisions.

Next I hope they do a 6 button pad.   :pcgs:

I'd like to see how well it plays, just out of curiousity, but I can't justify buying it for that alone right now.

It's a good sign that accessories are cost effective enough to produce that a company would actually make a product for tge TG-16 market.

Sweet!  I hope they do six-buttoners and wireless (not IR) next.   :pcgs:
