Re: Tactile switches help?

Hm...those switches would do the trick for modding the buttons to the case? Now (judging from the pic), am I wiring the tactile to the controller, and where on the controller am I wiring (like, some little node, or the place that the buttons originally pressed?

Tactile switches help?

Hey,

I'm a noob who has pretty much been (barely) working on a portable n64, and recently when considering the case, I remember references about 'tactile switches'...I saw in one topic (don't remember what board it was in) where someone got some for free....should I use them, and if so, where ...

Re: controller help

Yea, for the weblink, its right here, but I do encourage you do some serious research before ordering!

Check the stickies, double check them, then look over all of them in detail again. You will learn some more, and have a more comfortable sense of what your doing. I should know, I'm a console ...

Re: A little help?


Yours will total about $50 from the battery, the pcb (cheap), and the smart charger.
So you are spending around $32 + shipping. The batteryspace ones are $55 + shipping.

The batteryspace ones will be a lot smaller / lighter / and more power. Hmmm I would spend the extra $22 :P

neeeh, but I don ...

Re: A little help?


Don't use anything less than 18ga for the power and ground. Makes a bunch of smoke.

Erm, the 18ga, I'm afraid I'm not quite sure what your....talking about... :oops:

I think your talking about the wire, but I'm not quite sure. The wire that the n64 has is three wires, but I don't know if they ...

Re: A little help?

wires (what type is best, thats CHEAP?) - nothing cheaper than getting it out of the controller you're using for the project!

.......GENIUS!!!
:shock: I NEVER thought of that! I was always thinking the wires were a BIT long, but I guess that would be the best use for them! :P

erm, only ...

Re: A little help?


You'll most likely have to use two batteries to get up to the 7.4V you need to run the board. To help out, look for a video on the net from "Revision" Episode 80 of Systm. That tells you from start to finish how to do this, the parts you need and where to get them. Study it well!

Thanks, I ...

Re: A little help?

I'll see what I can do about that quality and showing it to you guys.
Also, I noticed people created the joystick by wiring tact switches to where the buttons where, and it wired back to the original joystick configuration through the small little silver circles by the original tact switches. Where ...

Thanks!

In by what you mean by video in or out, I believe its in (as in, to connect my n64, I just plug the cables into the yellow, white, and red). Other than that, I don't know how to absolutely tell. :?

The battery I saw I might get is called a High Power Polymer Li-Ion battery, with a 10000 ...
