wiring keyboard controllers into a portable

Post by reverie » Sat May 29, 2004 9:28 pm

If I were to hack up an atari to create a portable according to ben's directions how could I wire up two keyboard controllers instead of the joysticks? Can this be done?

That's the best I can do... if you wire them to where they end up on the board (ground, TIA, RIOT chips) that should work.

Here is the site where you can see the keyboard schematic itself. It also has schematics for the other controllers.

That should make it pretty easy.
