wireless snes controller for use on a snes would be usefull but THIS!!! is more usefull (if you re wire the snes controller a bit) or you could buy a WIRELESS CLASSIC CONTROLLER FOR WII and put it in a snes controller case and put 2 tactile swicthes on the back of the case so that you could still play n64 games with full CLASSIC CONTROLLER funchion (plz ignoore alll spellinz errorz) LOL

That is pretty awesome, you could make 10 and sell them as if they were near original controllers.

If you could build me one of those bad boys I can supply you with the largest ipod batteries available free of charge! cyanideg2@hotmail.com

#5, the battery will only contain the “protection” circuitry, which *should* prevent anything catastrophic from happening. I personally would not count on it to withstand sustained usage in this fashion. It is only supposed to be there in case anything goes wrong further up. I have also seen cheap Li-Ion packs omit even the basic safety package (typically just a thermal poly-fuse).

#2 (I’ve always wanted to call some one that) The ipod battery apparently has regulating circuitry built in

Could we just make something like this to use on my original NES?

Very nice. Though I wish that Nintendo or a third party is going to develop a proper Wii-specific set of wireless NES/SNES controllers eventually.

Nice little project there, however, not sure about the Li-Ion charging scheme thats in place. As shown it will almost certainly damage the battery and in worst case could cause it to fail spectacularly (i.e. fire/explosion).

You can buy single cell charger chips from companies like maxim that would be a lot more robust, and include safety options like internal overcharge timers and support proper sensed dv/di, trickle and top-off type charging. Might be worth a look. (EE that deals with li-Ion & Li-Poly designs)

Nice, and even timely for me. I am looking at wireless controllers and USB adapters so I can get 4 controllers hooked up to a MythTV system I've built. There are tons of PS2 wireless controllers and even PS2-USB adapters. I figure I could one built up for under CAD$30, possibly much cheaper if I can find deals.
