wavebird controller?

Post by runkthepunk »

hey there
i couldn't find anything about this before so would it be possible to mod a wavebird so it would work on DC coz i love the pad and as far as i know there are no RF controllers for Dreamcast the reason i ask is cause we all know you can get convertors to use PS pads :( but i like the cube ones more :D comfy stuff just a thought

no, I don't think this would be possilbe unless you take out the RF part of it and made it a normal controller with a cable

I saw some wireless DC controllers on ebay a while back.

Well, the hardest part would be actually getting the data from the controller to the RF Receiver. I could see it working if it wasnt for the fact that the RF "sender" is in the Wavebird instead of the DC controller. If you could somehow install the "rf" sender into the DC Controller, then it should work, although you still have to modify the receiver in order for it to plug into the DC.

Thanks.
