gaming with style! 
love the cushion idea. not that anyone cares but just for people’s refrence. If u buy a ps1->gamecube converter by innovation, it only recognizes dualshock controllers.
P.S. by the way, this is secretaznman, i changed names. the original was one of those hey that sounds cool at first but then becomes wow, that is really stupid.

where could i get a dreamcast to ps2 convertor?
oh and is it hard to install a 360 stick?
http://www.levelsix.com/products/dreamcast/superconvertor.shtml this 1’s from levelsix. u might wanna try www.lik-sang.com for more. as for the p360, it’s easy. just gotta find a 5 v source for it on ur pcb. wire the directions on the board to the directions on the p360 and wire the 5v to the live on the p360 and wire a ground wire to it. that’s it. just be sure to not use a ps2 controller to hack. more info at http://members.cox.net/joysticks/perfect_360.html

Anyone ever built a box like this one? If so, how hard would it be to cut/put the pieces together?
not hard at all although if you’re getting that, I advise you to sway from it. My friend bought one just like that from ebay for $105 not including shipping, and the stick is not slanted, and the way that it’s built, the top piece is a little too big for the bottom base, it topple over when u move the stick sometimes.
But to make that, it doesn’t seem that hard, hardest part will be to sand the corners like that. Just cut the corners off then sand away, plexi can be sand the same why, you might want to put fascend the plexi on first, then sand so the edges of plexi and wood will be even.
make sure you get mdf wood though.
cant really sand and paint and make nice roundy edge on ply woor or particle board.

3rd PARTY PADS ! !
any…naki or pelican are easy to hack.
Never…EVER try first party pads…they are generally complicated and…
Re: panel pains
in general yes 1st party pads are bad for hacking. but the only 1st party pad that isn’t too bad for hacking is the light gray/off white dual shock controller for ps1. if delmari001 bought the other kinds then i can see why. the ps1 pad take a lil more concentration but it can be pulled off. i only used it cuz my converter seems to only understand those and ps2’s.
yes, thats true, only use playstation one sony pads if you want to use 1st party pads, the dualshock is workable to, but it cost more and there are extra parts like motors that need to be snip out. And plus you have 2 piece of pcb that you need to mount inside your base.
well if you’re looking to make a stick for psone/ps2 i would say that 3rd party controllers are always the best cuz they are cheaper and easier to work with but if you wanna use an adapter to like DC or Xbox, i heard only 1st party sony pads work for that kinda stuff, there may be exceptions you should look into it.
and i made a stick using a 1st party sony psone controller not dualshock but it worked fine.
