DC Controllers for NEO GEO

[Jedeco2]

How can I go about converting DC Controllers for the Neo Geo? Is there someone who I can pay to do this?

It seems that finding PC joystick extension cables is getting harder since most controllers are going to USB.

I found a couple on eBay the other day and once I get them, I'm going to convert one of my DC controllers. I'll post a how-to once it's done.

I'm expecting the cables within the next day or so. So, when they arrive, I'll do one and post some pics.

If you mean Dc sticks , then i have done it. Its very easy and how i did it i retained the dc functionality as well.

I'll get a digital camera tomorrow and post pictures showing the soldering details.

Yeah, easy for the mvs, but I think they are after an aes stick.

Bit more tricky cos don't you need a 5v supply??

Neo sticks are hard-wired. AES and MVS are the same. So you just tap the links on the DC pad's PCB.
