way too easy.

you just back off as we reinvent the wheel mmk? 😀

sorry for the mega delay – i dont visit here but every so often!

For sake of aesthetics, yes. Id shoot to put it inside if that is your goal, as the end result can be a mess to organize.

This is absolutely wild.

In for one

fantastic work gents ! Truly awesome to see this in action

Received as well. Was truly astounded.

Hey gents i should be going.

Have any of you been there before?

I actually didn’t do anything about the PSU. I simply left it as-is and let it just pass through the controller, out to the system as normal, snap off when not in use.

Being that I have no intent on using the fightstick with every VB game, I really don’t ever intend on messing with some Sega Twinstick like design. Some games recognize both d-pads (ex. Panic Bomber, Vertical Force) and that’s enough for me.

Thanks! Not a problem ask away.

Results have been good – every fightstick I own works, powered or non.

Welcome to the club ! Albeit, not purpose build – decoding USB/PS3/XB360 to VB.

Awesome stick you’ve got there btw, good work!

Thanks guys, i’m glad you appreciate the result 🙂

Indeed an arcade stick with the guts can be relatively easily achieved. One would just wire a common ground and the according signals for the buttons to the VB controller PCB. Hell, the VB controller PCB would fit in pretty much any enclosure. You could even custom wire it to a Neutrik RJ45 adapter for a clean look.

Biggest obstacle would be figuring out where the powerpak stands in the build.

Don’t give up hope guys.

I am cross-involved with multiple scenes where unreleased titles cone up regularly. As of most recent, things like Ecco II for Dreamcast have been found; Kenju for Atomiswave has been dumped & should be subsequently receiving a cart release in the near future.

There is always somebody out there who may stumble upon the right connections.

its been loosely confirmed prior to now that a working Dragon Hopper exist in private hands.

im sure checking out the discussion tab on the game file page here on PVB will provide you more info

If you want to try some titles hands on, the newest Everdrive 64 firmware supports 64DD imgs perfectly.

Has anyone had luck saving Pokemon Red, or anything else for that matter? I couldn’t seem to get it to work in the way I assume it’s supposed to – saved in game, press R trigger, turn off/on, start back on saved game?

absolutely fantastic. id like to think i played a part in reviving this concept :p

fantastic!

i wish i lived closer – recently padhacked a VB controller to a USB decoder, enabling the use of a PS3 fightstick. Works flawlessly.

Damn. Was aspiring to take a crack at save support..

was the source ever made available for this?
