There is increasing interest in buying a SNES2CDi adapter, a Sega2CDi or even a USB2CDi adapter. The fact the first two are really plug&play makes them pretty popular. But who can help you getting one of these? All of these adapters are handmade and in the past there were a few CD-i members in our community who could help you out. Now in 2021, there are two options. You can either contact Jeffrey Janssen (for example, via our Facebook channel) or ask a question that you would like to buy a USB2CD-i adapter. He makes and sells them for 40 euros. Next, CD-i member Tpugmire makes and sells SNES2CDi adapters, so you can hook up a SNES controller to your CD-i player. He is active in the Atariage forum, link below. Tpugmire: "It allows you to use a SNES controller, making the games much more enjoyable. $50.00 shipped anywhere in the US. I may do another batch if there's enough interest. I have only personally tested it on a 450.
