Heres the video. The audio is NOT synced due to a youtube error. Blame youtube, not me. You can still see me playing and using the controller with the results on screen.

Could someone please submit this too: n4g, hackaday and kotaku? I dont feel like doing it again.

Well done. I still want internal pics of the carnage inside it. Cause replacing the guts of a Ps3 controller with the guts of another doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

PS3 controller that looks exactly like what you have there. http://www.uxcell.com/horn-controller-f ... -9444.html

Sorry HD-C I never give anyone the benefit of the doubt online. But the video does prove it works :wink:

Its cool. And Im pretty sure that the one on UXcell is a ps2 controller. With the bad english thats on the website, its hard to tell. If it truely is, there goes all my hardwork, sorta.

I made the video. Now, thats my deed.

No, I am no fool; I also don't call people liars just because they don't provide good enough pics of something. That is just plain rude.

:) It works fairly well. I do have a problem with the triangle key and the X key. But I know what the problem is. I just have to fix the rubber buttons inside.

Don't forget to take pics of the insides when you open it up to get to the rubber contacts inside... :wink:

Asking for pics to show someones work is not calling them a liar.

I still think HDC made the controller. You can see where the bondo wasn't sanded totally smooth in his photos so I don't see why he would buy that PS3 controller just to add some lumps to it? :lol:
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...

Of course he made it, I don't get where all these haters are coming from. Though I would like to see internal pics, just to see how it was all crammed in there. :P

Yep, no more nay-saying from me.

I agree with everyone else, though, we must see how the insides look. 8)

I emailed Kotaku about the video. Still no sign of it making it's way to the site.

Who knows if the Namco Portable will ever become a reality? :P
