Hello, I was being a Prncess and the pea with my fight stick, because I right-handed a PS2 Street Fighter anniversary stick, a right-stick playerâs best off-the-shelf friend. The problem is the wires wouldnât come out so i physically removed the acuators and crossed them up. It left a canopy underneath the joystick. I noticed some misfires so thought the wires were causing problems. I bought a new stick,and a bunch of extension wires. I decided to d the least drastic thing first, the wires, but the wires wouldnât come out easily. I didnât know whether to dire someone to unplug them or leave it. The price was WAY too expensive for labor. So I thought: I got a joystick, the must surely be some way to test heather the faults were with me or my stick.
In the meantime I took back the joystick and got the Undamned DB15 as an exchange. I tough it would wire all y buttons, apparently it only does 12 binary inputs, a ground, and a voltage. I wanted it for 8-button games like Injsutice 2, so i am currently taking THAT back, and as undamned creotr suggested, get a terminal block version.
The reason why I got an Undamned was twofold. Originally, I wanted to wire a fight stick to over 20 different consoles in a one-wire-one-funciotn manner. With the SF15AS and adapters I found I could play quite a few games right handed. But I need the undamned.to do two things. One is have a button swapping âtelephone operatorâ board with ether 3.5 mm connectors or RCA connectors.so I can sea buttons without using any tools. Then I just have someone pad hack a PS2 controller to wire the stick, and then add adapters as needed. The other reason I need it is for the few controllers they just donât make adapters for: The Atari jaguar, the Atari 5200, The Colecoviison standard controller and Super Action Controller, (there are games that only work with one and ones wit the other only), Intellivision which has been Flashback modded to hok up better controls, and a Bally Astrocade, and if there are known incompatibilities with the 3D Zero SNES controller adapter for 3DO, a 3DO pad with daisy chain. (Tototek sells one, but thereâs no Daisy Chain)
So now Iâm wondering does my joystick work? So i tried a character with difficult moves, Ken. That Dragon Punch is tough with a pad, and the few times you pull it off, itâs telegraphed> So after about a mite of warm ups, I was able to pull off 10 dragon punches in a row. Later I tried more stressful situations like from aback jump, from a forward jump, from a back run/high block, from a low block, i was able to pull offf 5 in a row of each.
So the final test. I played USF2NC against the computer as Ken. On skill level 4, I beat the game in one credit, with 5 perfect rounds including a double perfect and a perfect against Boxer (We know Balrog (US) was really M Bison (JP) before either Mike Tysonâs or Nintendoâs lawyers got involved. Just trying to be international. What names were used in other parts of the world?)
Not bad for a joystick test on a joystick that might have wires within the joystick mechanism. Iâm pretty sure the joystick wonât fail me. Even though now I have a bigger percentage of Dragon Punches pulled than Fireballs and Hurricane Kicks. Time to work on Quarter Circles.
