Revision History

8/9/01

Added a page on converting 5200 carts to accept EPROM.

05/01/00

Got the TurboGrafx-16 controller pinout together. As long as I was at it, I added a small section on the TurboTap.

11/08/99

Fixed the keypad section of the ColecoVision controller page. For some reason, I had pasted the table from the Jaguar controller page. Duhhh.

03/07/99

Started patching all the holes and filling in the gaps, and I went nuts. Tables are not meant for making things lay out the way you want! Trying to remember and figure out how I had done this shit was killing me. Chucked all the tables out (except the ones that hold actual tabular data) and recreated it all without them.

07/01/98

Very slowly getting the schematics together.

New stuff

• IBM PC digital stick adapter

06/28/98

I just finished giving the lab a head-to-toe cleaning. Cleaned up lots of stuff, cut out rotten parts, patched up some huge gaps, created lots of other stuff, shitcanned most of the crappy ASCII schematics for proper graphic ones.

New or significantly changed stuff

• 2600 controllers: keyboard, booster grip
• Composite & audio output from Odyssey˛
• Bally Astrocade joystick
• Colecovision controllers - this one was really fucked up. it's basically a completely new page now
• SMS light phaser
• Jaguar controller - cleaned it up a lot and added a section on the Team Tap
• IBM PC controller
• Power supply ratings, pinouts, and cross-compatibility chart
• Genesis controllers
• NES/SNES controllers

Things to do

• 2600/5200/7800 A/V outputs - redo completely.
• 5200 stick adapters - draw schematics.
• 7800 stick/gun adapters - draw schematics.
• Vectrex stick adapter - draw schematics.

Pages to create/finish

• TI99/4A controllers
• TG16 controllers
• IBM PC digital stick adapter

Things I'll get around to adding someday

• 2600 controllers - add sections on driving controller, trakball, 7800 joystick, and light gun.
• 5200 controllers - add section on trakball. Perhaps a section on the Competition Pro joystick.
• CV controllers - add section on roller controller.
