I found a Super Joy 3 76000-in-1 (yes, actually yes, and it tries to show you, but if you go to 76000 it is almost a random game, not what the title says
), I didn't have any $$ so I came back another day and bought it for $5. I tried to play it and the buttons were pure crap, they were very hard to press and then they would "snap" down. Useless. I ripped out the mainboard and wired up a battery pack and the 2nd player as first player, but the Genesis clone controller it came with was just as bad, if not worse.So, I dug out the NES controller I had, but I had stripped it for a failed PC Joystick project (back before the USB converters were available, and I didn't feel like designing a Joyport version). So I had to cut up the 2nd player controller for the glop-top to get it working.
It just uses a 4xAAA pack with a switch, I use 4x NiMH for 5-volts, no regulator (Who knows what could happen if somebody threw Alkalines in there?
).

Does anyone know what the deal is with these super joy? They have a second 'ground' (is it a button matrix?) for the alternate A and B, and another button that seems to be A and B together, weird.
I was starting on the project and figured to jam the whole shebang into the controller (except the batteries). I was psyched until I saw the one that Joe built with the backlit Nintendo logo and the Cart connector. I don't feel too bad because I only spent $5 total and don't have any NES stuff, no controllers, no systems, no games, no memories (well, next to none). I have been loving me some Tetris II and still can't figure out the insanely hard Competition Lode Runner that this comes with (hints?)
