Nice. When is the actual move happening? And to what city/general area?
Mainly asking because there’s a possibility of me dropping in for a very short visit to Tokyo possibly in the May/June timeframe; the chance eluded me of meeting up with you in San Fran when we were both there in October, I’ll definitely try to arrange meeting up for you for at least a drink if we’re in the same general area halfway across the world. :smiley:

I’ll be in yokosuka, starting in april. It’s about an hour train ride to Tokyo which I am very familiar with :slight_smile:

I grew up in Yokosuka. I’d love an opportunity to go back to Yokosuka.
Top three places to be on Yokosuka Naval Base:

Man the 6 button pad that comes with the PC Engine Duo RX Sucks.
I can hardly do Quarter circle motions on the pad, and the Start button isn’t too responsive

Yeah. The Hori Fighting CommanderPC and Avenue Pad 6 might not look as pretty, but their d-pads are definitely better. The d-pad shouldn’t be that terrible though. Have you disassembled and cleaned?

I got another white Saturn pad from Japan last month which looked great on the outside, but the inside of the D-pad area was vomit-inducing

35301

Not yet, I just got the thing and I decide to test it out on Castlevania and Street Fighter II

Hello all

I have a quick question about diodes if you don’t mind. I am currently modding a hori mini wired gaming pad and all is going well. Ps4 works just fine but in xbox mode it isn’t recognized and all buttons are held so from what I have already gathered I am gonna need diodes.

I currently have my setup wired as such

Buttons wired to front of ps4 pad then on the back side of the ps4 pad i have wires going to the xbox one pad

Can I simply wire the diodes in like this

Buttons to diode then diode to front of the ps4 pad and then back of the ps4 pad wired to xbox one pad

Or do I have to wire them as I am currently assuming which is having the ps4 pad last so

Buttons to front of xbox pad and from back of the xbox wire to diodes to ps4 pad.

Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks for any help.

EDIT: found my answer

So, in the time since my last post; I was offered two jobs. One locally working collections for a small agency; and the other is the government contract (preliminary background check came back clean), I took the government contract one because it pays more as a base; and I get government benefits on top of it. However; I don’t start until the 26th and I’m working days 7am - 4pm during training (night shift training was until 2am; starting at 5pm but my wife works until 8pm Mon-Thurs and 6pm Fridays). Gonna get bodied every day by getting up at 4:30am and going to bed at 6pm. Whether or not I get the job permanently is gonna depend on the results on the e-QIP check the govt has to do to clear me in order to do my job. So, for the next 30 days at least starting the 26th; I do have a job.

I also have an appointment on Tuesday to look at a potential residence to move into.

Took the pad apart and gave it a thorough cleaning, Star button works better and everything more responsive. But the D-pad is still god awful, not Xbox 360 d-pad awful but its not good for quarter circles.

35305

work stuff is getting real. I went and did my drug test today; and next week I go to have my PIV made to start on the 26th. I have decided for now to commute from my mom’s house to work until the e-QIP comes back and I get cleared or turned down based on stuff. Once/If it clears; I’ll move closer to work; but for now I’m gonna do my thing and have fun with this job while I have it.
