Only if you convert the D-pad to the second one.

Take apart a PS1 dual-analogue stick controller, rewire dpad's buttons to right analogue stick

Done.

2 sticks

take it apart!
gives us the pcb shots

Add Last Blade 2 to that list.

There are also emulators, but that gets verrry messy.

Why not just release it as is, and let the community continue working on it?

you can try to get the new IR lightguns for ps2, and use a ps2-to-dreamcast controller adapter

crazy idea are great, but with infinite luck, you will never make a usb adapter, sorry.

take the good cable out and try it out in the broken DC

you can do this without opening and soldering, but you will need 3 things

1. PSX to dreamcast controller adapter
2. dreamcast to PSX controller adapter
3. wireless PSX controller adapter

your only possibility is using the parallel port for ide support.

google:
bsd hard drive dreamcast

A switch would be possible, but it'd require a 14pin switch ... or for the nes controlelr only, a 9 pin one ...

-=FamilyGuy=-

i thought it doesnt actualyl use all 14, cant find a vmu pinout...

cant u just wire an xbox1 controller buttons/joystick to a dc controller board?

wire the dpad to right stick
doesnt sound too hard to me

what about silicone grease?

wasnt freespace 2 supposed to be officially released?

yeah about the OC vmu...so what happens to the vmu if its not OCed and the DC is? Does the dc just not read the VMU anymore? Or does ir read but theres no visuals? using the official vmu, induvidual saves or entire vmu may will eventually get corrupted, especially the ones that autosave some users ...

thats fucking brilliant !! props to you, sir!!!

question: do the buttons on dreamast controller work if pressed simulateneoues/shortyl after the nes controller's buttons while the nes controller is connected?

consider making a switch so u can still use it as a VMU slot?

You will NEVER get the drive tray ejection and loading to work. EVER. 100% guaranteed.

imho, the biggest problem is that so far too many people talk about it yet no one made a prototype.

how about writing a program that uses the existing usb coder's cable for two dreamcasts no communicate to each other through a PC ?

a very reasonable and plausible approach

one downside of rgb/vga is no lightfun support (afaik), should he want to add them to the cabinet

just get an xbox1 controller and re-arrange the buttons

it's 1:1 usb, so all u need is a spare usb cable and some brains
