Hey, I'm interested in tearing apart a couple wireless PS3 controllers to build a couple arcade sticks for Street Fighter IV and any other games I want a stick for. I was hoping there might be some plans of some sort on this forum and there just may be, however I can't find anything. Anyone know how to do this or knows the link to how? Thank you very much. |

This is the inside of a playstation one controller which, if I'm not mistaken, works with a playstation 3. All you need to do is solder the joystick and pushbuttons to the blue and red points. |

A PSX controller will not work directly with a PS3. You will need a PSX>PS3 converter. I don't recommend these because they are expensive and add input delay. I highly, highly recommend the Cthulhu line of PCB's. http://www.lizardlick.com/Toodles-ChimpSMD_p_584.html Cheap, durable, well tested, and easy to install. If you need wireless then I recommend the AXIS adapter. http://www.lizardlick.com/Toodles-Axisdapter-Board_p_538.html |

I've been wanting to do the same thing. Buttons are not a problem, D-pad is also not a problem since it works like buttons (simple ground/button, add a button in the middle), but what about the analog...? :s How do you convert the 4-microswitch arcade joystick input into the analog input such controllers require? |
