IS THAT BATMAN!?
Ry_yo: It would be much better if you bought a desoldering iron.

It will work much better than a soldering iron and copper braid for this task.

J'ai envoyé un mp pour te répondre ry_yo.
Yes is that batman
Only to see what could make the 3D printer and also because I knew not too much which form to make then I made acronym of batman
Turbo tax:
No, i don't do it by hand, it's a printed case from a 3D model, I could put support to position the equipment inside, it is a very good technology to make the case but the material is too soft, it is better to use the steréolythography but it is more expensive.I used cards plastic to consolidate the structure of the case.

Hi,
I've made all the control with micro switch, soft for paddle and buttons x,y,a,b and normal switch (more hard For good return to the neutral) for L and R triggers, start and select buttons.
I have unofficial paddle and there is only a "chip" on the circuit (see picture) i hope it work well when i plug all the wires.
I don't know if I am going to use batteries or if I am going to link it with a power adapter, i will use it at home or maybe in car when i wait when my wife will do shopping
.If i do not use batteries I can put the slot card lower but I must change the back case (big modification)

Always do batteries if you can. Especially on the SNES seeing as its so simple to do.
This is incredibly nice, by the way.

I got a problem to solder wires on the ship of the paddle and i need to purchase another one, next time i will cut more far away of the black part because i don't have enought copper on the circuit.

the brass lanes leave when soldered, I have not enough place to weld the wires, it's a little bit difficult
it is not serious tomorrow I buy another paddle and I begin again

It is also possible to use two of the 4021 ICs from NES controllers to act as a single SNES controller. That may be easier than trying to solder to the traces on that board.

You don't need NES controllers, the 4021 is a readily available. That is not only cheaper, but also easier.

I disagree. The easiest way for me was to use the SNES IC. If the traces are coming off, leave more on next time and solder farther from the edge.

I meant easier than ripping apart and desoldering from NES controllers

Hi, i buy a new paddle (10euro or 13USD, thief) and i do the following job with it:
I have tested all the connection and all works well, it's cool, next step left and right trigger + select and start.
I think is easiest to use this kind of unofficial paddle.
