Does this have a Common Ground for ALL buttons?

CoryBee:

I was going to buy some but noticed your shipping costs were pretty high. Would have to be willing to purchase a bunch more. Neat site regardless.

Blanka:

I don't know what all the Hoopla is about.
FIRST: YOU DON'T NEED A COMMON GROUND: all gamepads can be used. Just wire similar to the PCB. Your first buy is perfect usable.
SECOND. Next time buy a MiniPac (or a Keywiz) with harness right away. Time IS money, even for hobbies.

OK then buy an all finished cabinet, why bothering building it? What a waste of time!  :timebomb:

Lighten up, Francis!



One thing that really grinds my gears is the folks that seem to think that their way is the only way.

Time is money ... if you don't feel that pressure (I, for example, do ... I have obligations that cut very heavily into my hobby time), then count yourself lucky and build your cab the way that suits you best.

Just don't be an ass about it.

Damned kids bitching about BYO and shipping costs are missing the point -- does it fit in your basement ?

capsule:

CheffoJeffo , you're absolutely right but have you ever considered we might also ENJOY hacking gamepads? Which means it's not time-wasting IN the hobby but a hobby by itself.

This topic is about how to find the (common) ground on a gamepad. First answers? "go by an ipac", "don't waste your time". Who's bitching?

Talking about time: I hacked one yesterday evening. I don't have much time either and I have all the money I want to buy an i-pac but I find convenient to do it that way and i ENJOY it. Total time for wiring (with terminals) and hacking? 1h30. That's pretty decent.

Now could we go back to the topic?
