SNES to Playstation Adapter

(1/2) > >>

Gaidensaga:
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone here knows of where I could either get such an adapter (assuming it exists), or if someone could possibly make one for me?  I want to be able to use any SNES controller of my choosing on a Playstation 2.  I would be more than glad to pay for all expenses.  Thanks

-Ken

no one makes those.

Thanks to Cave for pointing out this controller. Hope this helps!  ;D

aredhel:
1Down load the linux kernel source code and read drivers/input/joystick/gamecon.c
2 Get a 2 parallel ports, one for PS2, one for the SNES game pads.
3 Write a driver that reads SNES and emulates  a PSX pad
4 Port it to a cheap ucontroller
5 Sell it to people who are more lazy then you are.

If you can program in C then you should be able to get to step 3 in a mouth or so of working in your spare time.

In any case a SNES->PS2 adapter will only work for "Digital Control" games on the PS2.  Any game that needs a Dual Shock will not work.

Hoe:
It's possible to fit a psx controller hack into a SNES controller behind the existing board.
Writing your own linux driver for it is braindead. You'd be much better off building a small device that translates the scancodes at hardware level.
