Xbox 360 Controller Hack Tutorial -- Wireless Hack Now Available!!!

HaRuMaN:
If you are making a 2 player panel, why not go wired?  No messing with batteries, sync, etc.

As for your questions:

1) You get the D-Pad, A,B,X,Y,Back,Guide,Start,Lb,Rb,Lt,Rt, and sync (for wireless)

2) Are you asking about where to put them on your panel?  Anywhere out of the way, so they don't accidentally get pressed.

3) That all depends on your preference.  Any arcade button / 8 way joystick will work fine with the hacked pad.

Thank you for your quick reply.

I have decided on wireless to avoid all the wires coming out of the unit my hope is the make a sit down panel that will be self-contained and play the games on my 50" tv.

I may have misunderstood how the guide and sync buttons work, would they both be arcade push buttons then like the rest? For some reason I had it in my head that they would be as they were on the control pad but removed and replaced on the panel.

I'm also thinking Sanwa seem the be the fighters choice for most modern sticks so I will look into where to get parts.

One final question If i may:

Once I buy 2 Pre hacked pads from yourself how do I conect up to push button and joystick? Do I have to solder anything?

Many thanks

HaRuMaN:
The guide and sync buttons would be arcade pushbuttons, just like the rest.  Of course, you can use smaller pushbuttons for these, since they aren't "play" buttons.

You can buy sanwa and seimitsu parts at lizardlick.com

Once you get hacks from me, there is no soldering involved.  Just wire from the terminal strip I attach to the hack (it has labeled screw terminals, just strip the end of the wire and screw down), and connect the other end to your buttons.  Most people use crimp quick disconnects for this. 

If you buy a sanwa joystick, it normally has a harness that you can attach directly to the terminal strip I provide.

Mark Thomas:
Thanks buddy am chance you could PM a price for 2 wireless ones for shipping to UK? also any chance of a pic of terminal strip? Many thanks

Here's a picture of 2 Haruman hacks he did for me a while back. The left one is an official controller, the right is a Madcatz arcade gamestick:


The terminal strips are those white bars, they have screws that you can tighten and loosen to insert a wire into.  No soldering needed.
Quality work.
