Hi there,

Wondered if any of you guys building GBZ's is doing this:

Not my video, not my project. Just thought it was cool when he fires up Super Mario 64 and works like a charm. Dunno if the Zero could handle it. He also plays Mario Kart.

Thought about it! My big thing was that yeah, the zero isn't powerful enough to run many games that would benefit from an analog stick. I think Mario 64 runs alright on it, at least.

Placement is another thing, but this guy seems to have found as good a spot as any.

I actually had a PSP analog stick wired up to a Teensy working great when I was trying to decide whether to use it or not, so that's another benefit of having the Teensy for the controls.

Yeah, you are right on that, not many games that could use an analog stick work properly on the Zero. Well, next generation maybe, when zero's are fast enough!

hopefully i can order it soon to test.

I want ONE. Plox this is all my build needs.

im waiting on a quote for 10 to test but ive already wired the psp thumbstick to my leonardo pro micro and got it working, hopefully when i get the boards i dont have to many set backs

Im thinking about using a psp analog stick on my next build. Would it make a difference which model i get? Theres a 1000, 2000 and 3000 model and also the vita. Some seem to have ribon cables attached.
Thanks

some psp thumbsticks are different but to what extent i havent looked into, i went with psp-1000 because i had one i could test with, the thumbsticks are cheap and i had it in eagle

ive just payed to have 10 boards made for me to test this is the design i went with and we will see how it goes:

Ok razor i will keep an eye on your posts and see how testing goes. In the mean time im getting some analog sticks on order

yeah i currently am just waiting for the boards but i do have a controller board and a psp thumbstick connected to my leonardo pro micro and i got it all working as a gamepad so the coding is almost finished. As for the board itself my only concerns are its a little to big to fit in the case however i dont think it will be and secondly im unsure if the psp thumbstick will be too high on the board for me to just drill a hole for the stick or equally its to low for the stick to come out the case these are things i can only judge by looking at the actual board when it arrives.

if its too low its not the end of the world you could solder wires connecting to the board and hot glue the thumbstick higher, i cant really do anything about that from the board side since boards need to be flat i suppose i could then design a small board you solder the thumbstock too and just add headers for that board on mine if that makes sense.
