Perfect 360 Wiring on old MAS Stick - Help Please!
ChoboPants:
I have an old MAS stick from a couple years ago that is wired for DC. I purchased a Perfect 360 to replace the Super in there right now not anticipating the need for an external power supply. If anyone knows anything about the MAS board or the power it draws from a DC and what to wire any help would be appreciated.
If anyone just has a suggestion for an easy external power supply that should be all that I need. I tried using an AC adaptor that put out +5v at 300mA but it didn't seem to properly power the device.
Thank you.
ChoboPants:
Any comments or suggestions at all would be wonderful :).
Thank you.

I just did this modification a few days ago. I have a really old stick, maybe 5 years old by now.
Look to see where the red wire is coming out of the Dreamcast cable. Solder to that and you should be ok. I heard that on newer PCBs, there's a spot thats clearly marked for the +5v. You don't need an external power supply.
ChoboPants:
I'll try that when I get home tonight, thank you :)

Slightly OT but are you planning on using that stick in a cabinet? You're one of the few people here who have mentioned MAS sticks other than me. I'm planning on using 2 with PS2 and Gamecube support in my cab. Just wanted to see if you were also and see what kind of ideas you had.
