midnight8 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Will a 2 port motherboad slip into a 4 port console without problems. I was going to make a y cable to use a pc joystick but I was thinking maybe if I use a 4 port case I could wire it all inside the system thru the extra 2 ports. anyway just thought some one may know before I pull the boards and find out it won't work or something.

Charlie_ Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 It has been a while since I've taken these systems apart. I think if the 2 ports of the 2 port match 2 of the openings on the 4 port case all should work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 If I remember the bottom of the 5200 shells were identical between the 4 and 2 ports. The only difference is the plastic cover that fits over the top of the controller area. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem there, you just have the two inner port holes leftover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
