:The receiver uses both controller ports, but the HSS-0116 package only shipped with one controller. That means you had to invest in a second controller if you wanted to play a two-player game. It's bad planning on Sega's part. -[[User:Black Squirrel|Black Squirrel]] 11:52, 11 March 2012 (CDT)

I see, so you were forced to buy HSS-0126 for an additional compatible pad, unless you for some reason wanted a second receiver. Thought there would be a bigger difference to warrant the change in model number, huh. Thanks for clearing that up. -[[User:ZZanimar|ZZanimar]] 12:19, 11 March 2012 (CDT)

HSS-0116 comes with a receiver, HSS-0126 does not
The receiver uses both controller ports, but the HSS-0116 package only shipped with one controller. That means you had to invest in a second controller if you wanted to play a two-player game. It's bad planning on Sega's part. -Black Squirrel 11:52, 11 March 2012 (CDT)
