Joystick or Game Controller Output Signals...

rxforspeed, I have built a couple of wireless interfaces for my wife's entertainment company for interfacing DDR pads to PS2 and the GameCube. Attached is a document I used for the interface for the GameCube.

Thanks guys, that info is definately what I needed. I'm sure I'll be able to figure out exactly what I need from the links elec mech posted and the document Dave had posted.

I had actually found that document (the one posted by Dave) by searching yahoo, but that was on a different computer so I don't have the link or website with me on my notebook here at school. Thanks for the help and info, guys-I really appreciate it! Now if I can only find a few free hours of time to actually play with those controllers and thouroughly read all that info...

I am still a bit confused about most of the joysticks I had found. I couldn't find a matching plug on the pin-out site and I have no idea what system they're from (I thought NES or SNES). The one I thought was a PS1 was actually the NES/SNES joystick; I'm not really much of a gamer, so I made a wrongful assumption-my bad. Oh well-I'm sure I'll figure it out and find the pin-out and related info I need from those posted links. Thanks again, guys!

Adam, Here is the connector for the PS2 if you need it...

Again, thanks guys! I saw some VERY interesting info in those links, and I've since figured out that the three unidentified joystick controllers are from an original NES, but I bought a PS2 dual-joystick controller just because I found some good info on that (with your help). Once I get a bit of free time to experiement and get those figured out, I'll "upgrade" to the Gamecube controller. Thanks for sharing such valuable info!
