If you play, say, Pole Position, and you use a digital pad to steer left, the wheel will be *hard* left, and you'll cut off the road. With an analog control, you can use either a little or a lot of force to steer. |

Which of course brings us to the inevitable question, are there any arcade size analog sticks that can be used in place of the analog sticks on a PS2 controler for a project of this kind? Unless I'm mistaken, the only sticks out there that might work are pretty expensive. Has anyone actually done this? -S |

I found this link to a ps2 - > arcade controller hack. I assumed if I were to build a controller I would have to sacrifice a couple ps2 controllers. Take a look and let me know what you think. http://wrongcrowd.com/arcade/joystickp1.shtml Don't forget to look at the title of the page that came up. I did a double-take when I first found the article... ::) |
| RetroJames:
Also, check this out. |

I think the controller you found is a 2 player controller. Unless I am mistaken, the controller seanwheels is looking for has 2 joysticks for 1 player. I don't know much about analog controls, but can someone explain how they could be emulated digitally? |
