QuickShot was a video game accessory manufacturer (or brand) active in the 1980s and throughout the 1990s. It was owned by Spectravideo (SVI), a computing company which manufactured several largely unsuccessful computers during the 1980s. Bondwell took over SVI at some point, and when SVI closed its doors in 1988, QuickShot became a Bondwell brand.
QuickShot produced dozens of different joysticks and controllers during the 1980s, including several compatible with Sega systems. Some of their products were adopted as official Sega Master System accessories in Brazil by Sega's distributor Tectoy. The QuickShot brand has not been seen since 1999.
Hardware Produced
As many computers and consoles used DE-9 ports for input, many, if not all of QuickShot's controllers can be used with a number of home computers from the era. Furthermore almost identical sets of controllers were produced for rival systems such as the NES. In the interests of simplicity Sega Retro classes all two button controllers as Sega Master System accessories, and all three button controllers as Sega Mega Drive ones.
