I believe Super Breakout and Kaboom! will work with a 5200 paddle controller, and of course Castle Crisis, which is the best argument for a 5200 paddle. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwierer Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Picture says it all: I say it's a joke. The top of a 5200 controller is easy to pop off and the two ends of the cable look different. I'd also want a 2nd button on a real controller. -Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No its no joke and there is no need for a second button but one could be added with ease. Not that hard to make really either, I'll post pics of the guts when its not such a rats nest inside. Dremil, 3 momentary buttons ans some soilder and within 30 mins you got the same as I do.

Shawn Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) Shawn wouldn't post anything fake Bingo. Why would I waste my time showing off a feat if was only a fake when everyone clearly knows I'm clearly capable of doing much more complex things with hardware? I suppose my 7800 Heavy Sixer was a fake also? And the FB2 tabletop arcade,ect? Well just ask Ianoid how fake that 7800 Heavy Sixer was as well as the modded JAkks paddle I made him, Hell there is a good dozen or more people on these forums that know my projects are top notch as they have had me build them ones like mine they liked them so much. Jeff your not being a sceptic your being down right rude. And the 2 ens of the cable look different? Are you blind or something or just looking to get under my skin? Oh well I guess I'll just stop sharing my projects cause they are all just fakes anyhow. But I am being serious this will be the last fresh, outside of the box idea I share here at AA for a long ass time to come as I look to show off my acomplishments and share my ideas when I post them not look to have them called vaporware.

I wouldn't let a sole individual crying "fake!" discourage you--I'm sure most people (myself included) enjoy seeing all the odd hardware creations people come up with. There are always going to be detractors, and it seems to be fashionable these days to decry just about everything posted to the internet as "Fake!" ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem solved I removed the pics of my "fake" controller and I just won't post anymore of my works to avoid provoking anymore of that type of posting as I want nothing to do with it.

Why do you care what someone else thinks? If Al has no problem with it, who cares what someone else thinks. It's not like you personally attacked someone. You got to grew some thicker skin. Unfortunely I missed the pic. I'm sure it was cool. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan I've calmed down a bit now after I swallowed the insults and I'm now able to laugh them off I guess. Pic reattached for anyone who is intrested to see. Also per request I will be sending the schematic to those who have PMed me asking for the layout. Need a few days though to get it looking cosmetically acceptable in my eyes to share a pic of the guts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
