Best Ultimate Tech Talk Hang Out Loud Edition Season V

Just got an armload of Madcatz DC pads in the mail. Looking forward to making DC to JAMMA (+ CPS2 kick harness) adapters for some folks (will probably post one in the project box thread when I’m done).

where can I get one of these?

I’ve got some parts on order to make a bunch of RJ45 joystick cables. I might make one if I can find the time, but we’re talking 2-3 months from now.

You’re looking for a Neutrik NAUSB (NAUSB-B if you want black).Lizardlick has them.

What an awesome avatar!

Agreed! Whenever I see it, I can’t help but forget what it was I was going to… what am I typing about again?

Optical with a custom bat top (either painted and polished or a custom mold) and circle gate? But it’s not cheap

There’s the cheaper option which is simply to get used to the sound of a stick.

I received my MDF case from QCF gaming today. I must say that I’m quite displeased.

Why’s that?

Oh I’m plenty used to it. Just thought it’d be cool. Actually I need to just buy this stick and be done (prolly leafswitch):

Nah, the only good Fanta is a microswitch Fanta.

anyone know where i can get the mesh wire covers (dont know the exact term). i cant find them anywhere in stores here.

Braided Wire Sleeves.
You find them in computer stores like Fry’s Electronics, Micro Center, and stores like that.

thanks, ive hit a few computer/electronics store and they give me a look like “are you smoking crack?”. even a custom compute store that does computer mods and clear plexi cases.

It always takes me so much longer than I think it will to make a new joystick. I always come up with some new idea halfway through the process. I hope I haven’t ruined anything and that it will turn out fine.

Never tried this stick and it fits maybe half of your requirements. Just thought I’d throw it out there.

There needs to be something like that for Happ parts…
