Dreamcast Seemless NES pad controller

[-=FamilyGuy=-]

@dudex77: To fit the astropad in a nes case would be easy, but you'd have to cut the 2de vmu port, and remove the buttons pcb and solder tap switches or cuted part of the nes pcb under the buttons in order to fit everything, both whole pcb wont fit. I also know of the make a genuine sega analog stick non-analog(digital) using other buttons that the stick itself, simply put a wire to put connection of the button (ex: analog left) and put another wire to ground, use a tap switch to link them, then when you'll press the tap switch, it'l be like if you're full pressing the analog left.

@11up: I still think it ain't that easy to desolder a vmu port connector and solder everything on the lil slippy vmu port pins, and I made a chart too, because I use a 9-connector wire ...

@CronoTriggerfan: Thank you ! Look forward for a DCp in the next months, only the case and batteries are missings, and the wooden mold for the case is already done.


Thank you again !

i know you could fir it in there easily but i just wouldnt want to clip the analog stick so i could still get credits in mame and get out of a game in dreamsnes. also being able to play jsr and SA2 with a snes pad would be the shiznit

You could put some tact switches to mimic the left analog (get back to menu). Or put an analog under the controller like ben does for the one-handed xbox360 controller ... LOL

Just ideas btw...

Well, I'm open to buisiness ...

I don't actually use this controller (did it for the hell of it)

So selling it for a fair price would sound interesting to me ...

pm me if interested

[dudex77]

I might do 30 shipped.

The controller and Nes controller appendice are still to sell, I expect about 40US$ +shipping !

Thank you !

Hows the portable going? Would you be able to make me a custom controller? Check my thread in the trading post if you're interested.

The portable is going as well as the last time you saw it, I got no time to work on it but I think I'll get back at it as much as possible. I need to drill holes and paint the case, the hardest part for me is the case amking as I'm better at soldering than at drilling holes and playing with putty.

UPDATE: Item sold !

I might make another (with any console controller) for someone if "someone" really wants it.

[Bubbles]

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want it to be black

I stop now.

Anyways, sweet mod.

THank you all for the good comments, I loved this controller It was feeling exactly like the real thing and I had some hours of fun with it. I may build another one for myself or a potential buyer once I'll have the time ! and OH! btw I got a black 9-pin cable so if I ever do another one, the cable will be "Painted Black".

Oh BTW I like that song!
