SiLic0ne t0aD Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 That's cool you guys got access to a CNC machine! Wish I could experiment with stuff like that.. Definitely count me in for a Pcb please, I finally got a controller on its way. I'm excited! Hopefully it'll arrive sooner than later so I can open it up to see what's going on..

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Me to, yeah that's a bummer. Stinks that those controllers are so hard to get a hold of.. I'm really looking forward to this though, maybe it'll finally solve my controller difficulties. Love the ball knob mod but I need something more and I think this'll be it in the end.

+grips03 Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) Here is how to wie the Konami SFC controller. It also has 12 buttons, this one will be built like Y = Button 1 or Left Coleco fireB = Button 1 or Left Coleco fire X =Button 2 or Right Coleco fireA =Button 2 or Right Coleco fire 1 = keypad 12 = keypad 23 = keypad 34 = keypad 45 = keypad 5Left side button = keypad *Right side button = keypad #Real Time = keypad 6Program = keypad 7Special = keypad 8Select = keypad 9Start = keypad 0 if you click the pictures you can see the cuts and jumpers on the pcb to seperate or join GND and COMMON. GND is used for up,down,left,right,and left action button COMMON is used for right, 3, 4 action buttons and common for keypad.

harlock76 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 sadly i cant order one since i don't have those gamepad (rare as hell) but since you guys are making new pcbs modded for coleco would it be hard to clone the casing and buttons (it would be doable since it's snes based casing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 EBay and/or buying from Japan directly is the easiest way to go.. they're tough to find in the states. Prepare to spend about $30 or so, they're not cheap either. That's my advice to finding one, it's what I did anyway.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 3 more mini pcbs have been ordered - March 9 2014. Should arrive in 2-3 weeks. I need one, so 2 are for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Here is info on how to wire and cut the Famicom Network for the mini PCB. Its uses slightly different cuts than chart45 posted earlier in the thread. I used a cut wheel on the dremel to make these cuts. I will most likely wire < and > for use with Frontline.

+grips03 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 the Konami controller did not make it. The pcb's pads are delicate and too many pulled up. The Famicom Network controller is a tight fit, but fairly easy to work with. Only issue with controller is that its not that rigid. Best overall is the NTT data.

Did it take a long time for you to find the controller as well, thanks Yes.. it took some patience. I didn't check everyday but quite often. I can almost guarantee it'll be coming from Japan, very rare in the states.. I wouldn't mind another SFC controller myself but I'd rather have the regular Famicom over the Super Famicom since they're direct fit. No complaints, I'm lucky to have one either way, plus grips PCB is the heartbeat of it, you'll need one of those as well.. Also a DB9 cord from another controller or from a controller extension cord. A pair of cables is about $12 or so on eBay. I hope another batch of PCBs would be a possibility if there is enough interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got outbid last night for a Famicom Network controller that was already modded for the colecovision so I bought from Japan the Famicom Network controller. Should get it in a few weeks. But it seems I found out about this PCB board too late. I have PM grips03 if there is any chance to buy another two but I guess by the sound of it there all gone. I am awaiting a PM from grips03. I hope more can be made otherwise I have just bought a paper weight, thanks Edited April 21, 2014 by Protestari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Rev 2 pcb, but I've yet to test it as I got very sick over the weekend. Once its tested I can start selling those. Make sure you can solder very well and are good with mods as this mod is rather difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Share Posted April 21, 2014 (edited) Ok I checked and I have: qty 3 - rev 1 PCB - tested, diodes on single side qty 4 - rev 2 PCB - not tested, diodes on both sides, smaller than rev 1 Rev 1 fits - NTT Data and Famicom Network Rev 2 fits - not yet tested Rev 1 pcb has holes in it. Matches the holes in the NTT Data case (not that the PCB needs to be there, in fact I like to mount it above the holes. hence they are removed in Rev2. 2 layer board of 2.34x1.00 inches (59.39x25.40 mm). Rev 2 - smaller boards 2 layer board of 2.36x0.66 inches (59.99x16.84 mm). Edited April 21, 2014 by grips03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
