SNESp Questions?

Post by mmoshkowich »

I just started to order parts for my SNES portable but I have a few questions.

What type of batteries are best for the SNES?

Can somebody explain the controllers on the portable in simpler terms, I'm having trouble understanding how it works?

Are there any simpler ways of doing the controllers on the portable???

Your Kindness will be greatly aprecciated.

EDIT ------
Can You use SNES knockoff controllers??

Use lithium ion batteries. Check batteryspace for some that suit your needs.

The controller on the portable is just a regular controller with the buttons placed and wired where ever you want them.

You can use any SNES controller. I'm not a pro on the whole SNES scene so I don't know what controllers are the smallest, etc.

Read around and check the stickies all over and you'll learn a lot.

All the snes controllers are the same size, since all you actually need is the chip.
