Anyway to use the Hori EX2 PCB in the Madcatz TvC Stick

Hi all,

Is there any way to use the Hori EX2 PCB in the TvC Stick? The main reason I want to do this is to use the TvC stick on the Xbox360/PC because I really don’t use the Wii.

If this is a tutorial or someone has some video, that would be great.

Thanks

I don’t think there is a tutorial but its pretty straight forward on how to do it. The buttons all have their signals and so do the directional inputs as well as home and and start and select

He beat me to it I was going to link the pinecone attack cuz I forgot about that

the ex2 board is a little more troublesome than most pcbs since it has a separate ground and signal for each button and directional input. hopefully your ex2 board is still attached to the joystick so it’s easier to tell apart different buttons and directions. you will need to modify the joystick pcb to handle the separate signal and ground lines. if you’re using the stock stick it should be an easy cut to separate the microswitches from the board, if you’re using a jlf you will need to scrape off the common trace line, the switches don’t have to be removed completely.
