What exactly do you mean my 'triggers'? Do you mean the analogue joysticks?

No he means the triggers, the left and right dual triggers on the top of the gamepad. I use them in all of my N64 portables for the left and right triggers and the dual z buttons.

Basically the Psone triggers have 3 wires. A common ground and then a wire to the top trigger and a wire to the bottom trigger. For the left triggers, You will run a wire from the common ground wire to one side of the z button and one side of the left trigger on the N64 pad. Run another wire from the top trigger to the other pad on the left trigger of the N64 controller. Then run the third wire from the bottom trigger to the other pad of the z button on the N64 controller. Do the same for the right triggers to the right trigger on the N64 pad and the z button again.

Confused :)

Well not really. It's not just double z buttons but the triggers also. A bit more complicated. But easily done :)

I really can't make the pic any clearer. It shows how to hook up the left and right upper buttons as left/right triggers. And the left/right lower buttons as left/right z buttons.
