inside shot of the namco with the paewang revolution pcb:

fits easily. if i weren’t so impatient i could have saved even more space by trimming the wires to size before crimping. it plays exactly like my stock namco w/360 converters.
haha. i like them both, but my namco still gets a lot more play time.
That’s very clean and small PCB is a great fit. Are those stock buttons? I wish the Paewang had a PS2 connector as well like the Mayflash. I’d put it in everything.
yes sir kyle! stock buttons, stock joystick. switches are from a set of seimitsu’s i had never used.
Gotcha. I was wondering how the QDs fit on there.
Nice job on that mod zeetes!
You’ve inspired me. I think I’m going to toss my brand new dual modded TE on ebay today and use the money to mod up my Namcos. IF anyone wants dibs on the TE before I list it PM me. I have GOT to get one of those paewang boards. It looks like it’s practically made for modding namco sticks!
EDIT: LOL I just realized NO ONE would want a dual mod TE in the Namco thread! I must be nuts! lol.
EDIT DOS: Some guy on ebay has a few pelican converters used for about $20. I just won one without any other bids.

Check that out. Could be useful for all the namco guys.
Nice job zeetes. Do you need to hold down any buttons om boot with that pcb or does it automatically know which console you using?
thanks guys!
it came out of the box ready for the 360 plug and play. to switch over to ps3/pc or back to 360 you hold down turbo when you boot on the system. it will keep the current system active until you switch to a different system.
Oh right so I presume you used select or something for turbo then.
yes sir, i mapped L1 to TURBO, L2 to HOME, start/select i kept the same
here is my newest namco and second one for my mod project dual pcb like zeete did.
Man, one of you guys must have snagged all of those pelicans from my link. There’s only one left on all of ebay!
I bought the last 2 the seller had. So thanks for the link Comrade.
Anytime meus. BTW. I just listed my Dual modded TE on ebay.

I would appreciate it if my namco brethren could spread the word!
Can someone kindly sell a really worn Namco stick to me?
I would like one, I’m being super cereal about this.
meus>>> How much do you want for your T3-stick?
okay i’m gonna follow this tutorial: http://www.kowal.itcom.pl/ArcadeParts_pliki/modNAMCOen.htm
but i have a few questions that wasn’t really clear. first, the paint on my namco stick looks very old and worn out. what kind of paint and primer i’m assuming, what you guys recommend? i’d also probably have to do something to the metal on the bottom…
also after unsoldering the wires from the pcb, all i’d have to do is stick some qe’s on each microswitch correct? all of this sounds so simple if that’s really all i’d have to do…seems like modding a namco stick sounded so complicated before. thanks in advance.
You might need to bend the contacts on the buttons before you can attach some quick disconnect on it. Since each button on the Namco stick is wired with one signal line and one ground line, you can connect the wires from each button to the PCB without daisy chaining it.
my new namco stick came in today. whoo hoo.
Very nice! That’s a good condition stick by the looks of it.
Hopefully my TE will be sold soon and I’ll be able to afford parts for my Namcos. The one is in good condition like yours but I think the other could use a little work.
Sure i can sell my T3 stick if u want. Pm me later on.
