Any interest in prewired Playstation PCBs?

(1/3) > >>

Arcade82:
I'm going to order some wholesale PS1 (playstation) controllers simply so I can have some for my own project(s) but I thought maybe with the leftovers I could prewire them for people to attach buttons/joysticks etc and easily build their own arcade stick (I could easily make a wood box too for $$ with holes drilled). So I'd solder the wires to 8 buttons, 4 joystick directions, select & start and then add quick disconnects so all they need to do is slip em on the button microswitch. I'd include diagrams too. It's not really a "job" or money making project but just something to do with the leftovers and recoup a little money.

Arcade82:
Anyone?

You'd be better off putting this in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum.

Depending on your price, I might be interested in one.

Do NOT buy the cheap ones being sold in bulk on eBay!!! That have Extreme latency issues... I'll see if I can conjure up one of the auctions I'm talking about...

Here one is...
I won an auction for 4 of these things & they SUCKED!!! I tried them on a PS2 & with a USB adapter... (& I compared them to a Sony Dual Shock) & there really is no comparison.  These literally took up to 1-2 seconds to respond to button presses.

Ug... I good waste of $18...

Just trying to warn you against cheap controlers...
Have fun!

I use $5.00 dollar used ps1 controllers from gamestop for my wiring.  They are official sony and they work great.  You might want to go that route.
