Negcon Compatibility List

Last updated: 9/16/2007

Since there's a glaring lack of compiled information available on the subject of Negcon compatibility, I've taken it upon myself to put as much of it here as I can. This list is drawn from my own personal testing, testing performed by other kind folks, and information gleaned from other gaming web sites, message boards, game manuals, etc. It's by no means exhaustive, though hopefully it's as accurate as possible. I'm fairly sure there are still a LOT of games to be added.

I also have at my disposal an Interact V3 wheel for Playstation. Despite using the Negcon protocol, the wheel's compatibility seems spotty in a few places. Issues I've discovered are noted. Don't assume that a lack of compatibility warnings means it works - I haven't tested everything on the list with it.

If you see ANYTHING wrong with this current list, or you know of titles that should be added, PLEASE e-mail me. My address is listed at the bottom of the page. Try to include enough information to classify games into one of the four categories used in the list.

Thanks to these kind folks for providing me with updated information:
