Yeah guys I've talked about it before but I'm finally getting them done: Universal Joysticks!

<a href="http://web.njit.edu/~jal0737/Home%20MVS/New%20Sticks.jpg" target="_blank">Take a look at them here!</a>

Ok, they look like crap I know, the boards don't line up just perfectly square but it's all flat and everything FEELS great when you're playing it, and it has no bugs in it.

Anyway down to the specs: They use a DB15 connector so it's instantly Neo Geo compatable. But the fun comes in when I build the adaptor modules. I can make them for any system but my primary concerns are: USB (PC,Mac, Linux), PS2, and DC. I set it up so you can switch between Neo style and capcom style so it should be easy to use for just about any fighting/arcade game.

Lemme know what you think.

Peace

Nice!
The button layout is good and the possibility of easily making it work on another system is great.
If the case will look better in future versions I'd say that this is a well done piece of hardware!

Will you make a tutorial about building the stick and adaptors for all the different systems?

Well I am going to do tutorials but it's gonna be a while. I definitely will have them though cause this is part of my senior project so documentation is a must, the question is when :) .

Hopefully it won't take too long as I hope to write most of my documentation this summer.

Peace

Those are awesome! I plan on building some someday, when I get boards for my sueprgun besides my MVS.

But he didn't manage to capitalize "awesome", or even get his image linked right.

Nice stick!!! Wow, people here are so creative!
I want to do my own one, but I have no ideo how to start and what I need XDDDD.

But only a bit low? (or thin I don't now how to say it, not so high). Maybe will be more comfotrable and not so heavy (I assume it's heavy seeing at materials).

Ah, forget what I said, it's the kickass stick!! And wow, all system compatible <img src="graemlins/drool2.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool 2]" />
