Controller Idea

[S q u e e !]

I was thinking today about the controller for my GCp. I wanted it to be a split controller, but I thought that would be pretty difficult, so I tried to think of another way, and I think I've thought of something.

I want to take 2 GC controllers apart, and use one for the Joy stick and D-pad, R button and another for all of the other buttons except start. I thought I could solder the 5v in from GC Controller 2 (buttons A, B, X, Y, L) to the 5v in from GC controller two, and also solder the traces from #2 over to the board on #1. The was I think this will work, is that power will be going to the second controller, which would send data from buttons A, B, X, Y, and L over to the other controller, which would think that it was it's own buttons.

Maybe I could also cut off the A, B, X, Y, and L button side after I was done.

Think it will work? Maybe I'll try to find some pinouts later today.

so you are basically just gonna plug in to controllers but only use certain buttons on both oif them, right ?

Not exactly, just use the 5v in from one to ensure that both are working, so every time I press the buttons on #2, It will be programmed so that controller 1 is having that button pressed.

but if you just didnt press the buttons on the one you arent using it wouldnt matter they would just be there or you could cut em off
