rubixcube Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 (edited) this is a controller i made a few days ago. it was mostly made of electrical tape and cardboard for support. -- things i used -- cardboard (cerial box) frame toilet paper roll tubes (for the handles) black electrical tape (for the color) wire led buttons (from those Mc Donald happy meal toys) a 15 pin port the only thing i paid for was the wire, led and the 15 pin port ($15.00 total) and everything works perfectly. quick responce, smooth D-pad controll, easy placement for A B and C buttons. what u think?

MegaData Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Is this a mock-up for something else? Were you thinking of adding something ...like a Pro Control scheme? Maybe you had some more thoughts for feedback you were interested in, or specific questions? I thought you could get a regular controller for about $15. Maybe not with shipping costs these days...

RARusk Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Wow. Kinda makes me wonder what his version of a rotary controller has got to look like..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusbucket13 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 LOL I had to check april 1st hadnt crept up on me on this one - presumably it has a crumple zone incase of sudden impacts? Is it likely to fold up on you at times of stress? You wanna do the wiring on my Vari Geo Jagpad project when I finally get the shells made?

Hyper_Eye Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 This is more ghetto then the P-P-P-Powerbook! Except this actually does something. Not to be a jerk or anything but... do you not feel like you wasted a bunch of time with that? Were you practicing for when you might make a real controller?
