Ok, i’ve cracked open my C&L pro SNES joystick and opened up my Mad Catz 360 Lve Arcade Retro Stick :
now i’ve got to figure out how to do all this…
anyone seen anyone hacking this madcatz controller? Im a bit confused, it looks like im going to have to solder straight onto PCB leads… i have ZERO solder skills
That’s a straightforward job if you could solder. Post in the Trading Outlet and see if you can find someone willing to solder it up with quick disconnects for you. Then it would just be a matter of plugging it in.
i’d kinda like to do it myself. i thought i’d have to solder into the PCB traces but it looks like you solder into the little circles that are pressed by the ‘buttons’ when you push a button.
so I can do it, i just need to hopefully find a guide/pics from someone who hacked the same 360 stick.
what kind of stick would have been used in the original SF2 cabinets? I want one like that - no ball and a spinner circle thing at the bottom (i love spinning it while waiting for rounds to start).
before doing the work i’d like to test the SNES joystick on an SNES and make sure the buttons and stick actually work… i bought it at a flea market over 8 years ago and its sat in my garage since
