Title: Make a control panel from slikstik/playsation 2 controller parts?
Post by: eastbayarb on March 03, 2006, 01:58:10 am
Here's what I wanna do:

1. Get a blank quad slikstik control panel.

2. Buy slikstik buttons and joysticks (enough for all 4 players...trackball/spinner later)

3. Buy 4 Playstation 2 joysticks (or game pads) with independent turbo fire

4. Wire the slickslik buttons/joysticks to the Playstation 2 joysticks/control pads

5. Put the slickstik buttons/joysticks and insides of the Playstation 2 joysticks/control pads in the blank quad slikstik control panel

Reason I want to use Playstation 2 joysticks/game pads is this:

1. Each of 4 players will have independent turbo fire
2. Compatibility (I have ps2 to PC, ps2 to xbox, ps2 to gamecube, and ps2 to dreamcast controller adaptors). I would rather be able to use my arcade cab with not just PC/MAME, but also xbox, playsation/ps2, gamecube, and dreamcast.

Anyone know if and how this could be possible?

Thank you!
