i dont know what its called but i am making a arcade stick for fighters and i bid on a mad catz controler off ebay and well i just got them yesterday and well they dont even work for ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Im just ganna go with what snakkke told me a while ago and go with the Playstation controler and get the adapter to dreamcast so u get the best of both worlds.


Now can someone give me a LINK to a page that tells u were to soer on the playstation pad cause i have a performance gamepad and was wondering if u can use tat fo a stick?


and also can someone hook me up with a link to a place that sell's playstation to dreamcast converters?

Thank You.

Toilet just gave you a couple links in your last post
Did you just not see them or something?  I have went to both sites and both apparently are selling adapter devices like you asked for.

SOLDERING, it's called soldering....

Did you try a google search?
http://www.google.com/search?q=soldering+playstation+gamepads

Did you check out some of the desktop controllers in the BYOAC faq examples section?
http://www.arcadecontrols.com/arcade_examples.php

Should be plenty of reading material for you to get started...

best of luck...

Look for the Original Playstation joypad.
The very first one that they made.
Look at the back of the controllers.
Look for a alphabet letters such as (H).
These letters represent when these control were made.
The earlier one doesn't have the BLACK STUFF on it, so you can solder on them.
You can fine these Original Playstation joypad at you local buy and sell used store. (Funcoland) or (GAMEZONE)
Look for letter (H) or any letters before (H).
