USING THIRD-PARTY CONTROLLERS
While THE400 Mini has been designed to work best with the included THECXSTICK, it is also compatible with Retro
Games’ THEJOYSTICK and THEGAMEPAD as well as some third-party controllers and joysticks.
The button designations of most USB controllers follow one of the three conventions established by Microsoft (Xbox), Sony
(Playstation) and Nintendo. The following table shows how the buttons of these, THEJOYSTICK and THEGAMEPAD
correspond to those of THECXSTICK.

USING A USB KEYBOARD
If you plug any standard USB keyboard into one of THE400 Mini’s USB ports, that keyboard will function much like an
original Atari 8-bit keyboard.
Some Atari 8-bit keyboard keys do not exist on a modern USB keyboard, so are mapped to an alternative key as listed here:
