PIC N64 Controller

[brunoip]

Can you upload the schematics and your last hex file for the version with the pic16f628a ?

[evilteddy]

Not with an easy mind I'm afraid. I could practically guarantee that it would be a pain to get working and would be completely unsatisfactory. Uni holidays are coming up. I should get the design for the new board final by then.

[brunoip]

Even without support for the analog stick is it that hard?

[evilteddy]

Tell you what, I've got a bit of free time this weekend. I'll quickly make up a basic release version for you. No rumble support or memory pack and For the 16f1827 rather than the 16f628a.

[brunoip]

I cant get a 127 in my city I only have 128 and 128A

[evilteddy]

Well I don't have anything working on the 16f628a. Sorry.

[evilteddy]

Well the last board I made had some rather large and many small flaws. This new design should allow me to fully support memory and rumble pack, all buttons, c stick and USB to transfer save games onto computer and to upgrade software on the PIC. That's the plan anyway.

[brunoip]

What pic are you going to use?
Also will keep using assembler?

[evilteddy]

I'm going to be using the 18f26j53. I'll need to use some assembly for the time dependent parts of the project but for the other parts I'll just use C.

offtopic:
did you end up going to uni this year? Newcastle?

[evilteddy]

Yep, I'm doing combined computer engineering and physics at Newcastle. Lots and lots of fun. The clubs are the best. Mountaineering, Physics and even Quidditch. To keep with the electronics theme I even work at Jaycar now. Life is good. What did you end up doing?
