About this 3D model

Spectacularly useless replica of the wonderful SNES controller/joypad. Electronics and connector not included. Rubbers quickly modeled and not printed/tested. Perhaps these could be made with flexible filament. Looking forward to also replicating the PCB once my printer can mill those.. ;-) Because retro gaming is best done on original hardware of course, it might be interesting to combine this with a SNES emulator.. Tested for now on a real SNES, and everything works well. Additionally serves as a nice construction puzzle for kids.. ;-) See also my previous controller model, for the Suzo International Arcade Stick: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:30198 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:30008 **update**: Also recreated the electronics, based on schematics provided by Raphael Assenat: http://www.raphnet.net/electronique/arcade_control/arcade_control_en.php the PCB was milled on a PCB Cyclone, built with my 3d printer: https://github.com/CarlosGS/Cyclone-PCB-Factory the hardest part of the electronics was to figure out that for a PAL SNES, you need one or more pull-up resistors on the incoming latch/data/clock lines, with quite specific values; for me, a 467 ohm resistor on just the clock line did the trick. if this is wrong, typically just the B button will work. note that I used 10kohm resistors for the buttons. I also put a bit of aluminum tape under the select and start buttons, or they wouldn't work (probably solvable my moving away from the 10kohm resistors?). after this, all buttons work well. I hope to publish one more update before too long, with the flexible rubbers, connector and the small PCB's for the L & R button. **update 2**: added flexible parts as .stl, but please note that they are untested and probably won't fit correctly.
