Sweet, l built the gamecube/n64 version of his adaptor yesterday, and the day before that l made his Playstation version. l am considering making a housing with an included parallel connector for programming and all extra pins on headers (like a minimal arduino clone), just so l can use one board for whatever adaptor l need. lf l knew a little more l would experiment with storing multiple banks of code and a method to switch to the correct one.

l only have one problem with this implementation, no potentiometer support for the x/y axis, see http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kds?$=main/howto/mind.htm for what l have in mind. lt would be great if this simple controller version supported only 2 axis (or if l had a clue about C so I could tweak the code).

The plan is to put a DualShock joystick into a digital psx pad instead of the d-pad, thus making the perfect controller, slim, light, and with a stick you can actually use. 90° control of a stick with a hyper-extended thumb is not my idea of ergonomics sony!

lt is really too bad, the sony digital pad is my all-time favorite gamepad, l use it on everything from my pc to my xbox to my gamecube, don’t yet have the dreamcast adaptor, too expensive.
