The controller consists of a rectangle with a [[D-pad]] and two buttons. Sega also introduced additional Mark III controllers, such as a [[Paddle (game controller)|paddle controller]].<ref name=controllers>{{cite web|title=Sega Mark III Controllers|website=Sega Hard Encyclopedia|publisher=[[Sega|Sega Corporation]]|url=https://www.sega.jp/fb/segahard/mk3/controller.html|language=ja|access-date=February 12, 2014|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140803043318/https://www.sega.jp/fb/segahard/mk3/controller.html|archive-date=August 3, 2014|df=mdy-all}}</ref> A combination steering wheel and flight stick, the Handle Controller, was released in 1989. The Sega Control Stick is an arcade-style joystick with the buttons on the opposite side as the standard controller. Unreleased in Europe, the Sega Sports Pad utilizes a [[trackball]] and is compatible with three games. Sega also created an expansion for its controller, the Rapid Fire Unit, that allows for auto-fire by holding down one of two buttons. This unit connects between the console and the controller.<ref name="Retro117" /> A [[light gun]] peripheral, the Light Phaser,<ref name="Allgame" /> was based on the weapon of the same name from the Japanese anime ''[[Zillion (TV series)|Zillion]]''.<ref name="retrogamer_tectoy" /> It is compatible with 13 games and released exclusively in the West.<ref name="Retro117" /> A pair of 3D glasses, the SegaScope 3-D, were created for games such as ''[[Space Harrier 3-D]]'', although Mark III users need an additional converter to use them. The SegaScope 3-D works via an [[active shutter 3D system]], creating a [[Stereoscopic video game|stereoscopic]] effect.<ref name=3D>{{cite web|title=SegaScope 3-D|website=Sega Hard Encyclopedia|publisher=[[Sega|Sega Corporation]]|url=https://www.sega.jp/fb/segahard/master/3dglass.html|language=ja|access-date=February 12, 2014|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140407192553/https://www.sega.jp/fb/segahard/master/3dglass.html|archive-date=April 7, 2014|df=mdy-all}}</ref> The glasses need to be connected to the Sega Card slot, and thus do not function with the Master System II due to lack of the card slot. A total of eight games, including ''[[Zaxxon 3-D]]'' and ''[[OutRun 3-D]]'', are compatible with the glasses.<ref name="Retro117" /> The Mark III has an optional RF transmitter accessory, allowing wireless play that broadcasts the game being played on a [[Ultra high frequency|UHF]] television signal.<ref name=Telecon>{{cite web|title=Telecon Pack|website=Sega Hard Encyclopedia|publisher=[[Sega|Sega Corporation]]|url=https://www.sega.jp/fb/segahard/mk3/telcon.html|language=ja|access-date=February 12, 2014|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140803043532/http://sega.jp/fb/segahard/mk3/telcon.html|archive-date=August 3, 2014|df=mdy-all}}</ref>
