A few wiring quesitons
Rawker:
so do you guys think 2 db25 cables is enough for the control panel?
and can i double wire the 1st player joystick and buttons? so that i don't have to switch any wires, just power up the dreamcast.

Negativecreep0:
two DC controls would fit in a DB 25 cable right? you have 11 contact for each controller, plus one ground for both? so a total of 23 wires. Is that right?
Rawker:
yeah i think that would work out with 2 dc controllers on one db25 cable.
so does anyone know if i can double wire the joysticks

Would that work. I have a hacked dc pad, but I wasn't sure if I could do that.
