Advice on whether these are decent brains?
Advice on whether these are decent brains? Posted on: 22.05.2011 by Olene Minyard Just found these on eBay:2 x USB 2.0 Game Controllers They seem like a bargain price. Also, from looking at the pic, it looks like there 1 USB 2.0 connection and the 2 pads are actually daisy chained already. Would these therefore be a decent investment as the brains for a mod controller? | |

Sounds like a mean-ass controller for the cost of 2 joypads!

| Arcelia Siebeneck 23.05.2011 | I plugged 'em in and they worked straight away... unfortunately, I can't remember if it was with XP or Win7... possibly it was XP? |
| Olene Minyard 23.05.2011 | For anyone interested, I got confirmation off the eBay seller that there is just the 1 USB connector and the 2 pads are already daisy chained. Therefore, open them up, take out and de-solder the existing buttons and you have a 28 button brain consisting of 2 gamepads daisy chained ready to go as far as I can see with a USB 2.0 plug and play connector for Windows ready too. |
| Joan Kollmorgen 22.05.2011 | Sorry can't help you with the driver problem - just have to wait untill Milo chimes in. |

| Antoine Wasiewicz 22.05.2011 | What about if you had 2xPS2/2xUSB Dualshock controllers? How many analogue (pots/faders) could you have then? I'm considering making a controller with a 4x4 grid of arcade buttons, so the USB controllers could handle that, but I'd like to add in faders and knobs if possible... 2 controllers would give 24 buttons, so I could have my 4x4 grid with some buttons left over for navigation... 4x4 Grid 8 additional buttons 4 analogues (2 faders & 2 knobs) Sounds like a mean-ass controller for the cost of 2 joypads! |
| Joan Kollmorgen 22.05.2011 | Nothing wrong with them as long as you only want buttons (no analog) |
