I still regret the day I sold my AES system. I really love this site.
Does anyone know if there is a way to hook up the standard controller to a pc by way of USB? I really love that controller and want to use it for other things as well.
I guess I'm asking if there is a converter in exsistance?

Thanks in advance

ultimarc.com has a cheap arcade-> usb keyboard encoder... DOn't see why you couldn't use it with the neostick..

If you have any kind of knowledge of electronics, then building an adapter is probably the way to go. MKL was kind enough to post a rough tutorial on how to do so in this thread. Although the gamepad you use to do the mod might not be the same, it's the same general principle. Good luck.

Yeah that looks like the way to go .
I might also consider the x-arcadr double stick. 150 bucks and its got a lifetime warranty.
Tempting indeed.

For less than $50, you can wire your neostick to your PC via USB. Two sticks supported. Little soldering involved as well
