Hey guys,
Fairly new in the community and what all of you are doing is amazing. Just stunned by the crazy project have in mind.
Mine sound "simple" but for my level it's apparently not.
Ultimate goal is to make a player 2 from famicom fully functional on an European NES ( Mic included). BTW my player 2 controller is the original one with square bottons ( if it change something)
I read many topics online about it and so far what i see is the best option would be to use the ENIO EXP Board.
The best infos were given by Great Hierophant here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=11987&start=15#p175200
1st phase: Make the famicom player 2 controller work like a regular nes controller ( of course without the pause/start/mic) [/color]
I looked at pinout for famicom P2 and nes here is what i done to connect it.
1: ground: red
2: clock: white / 5:+5v : brown
3: latch: yellow / 6: D3: ( mic but not connected) : blue
4: data : orange / 7: D4: none
as seen here: http://nintendoage.com/forum/messagevie ... did=127993 ( search: Player two pin out was even wonkier )
I tested it on double dragon 2 and the only thing that happen is that the P2 character is jumping when i plug the controller. If I wiggle the connector it punch and jump.
otherwise using the pad does not make my character move or anything.
So my 4 options are :
-My controller is dead ( but if there is a reaction it's unlikely)
-My connection are making some kind of short circuit ( i isolate with electrician tape each connection). also I just wrap the wire on the pine and did not solder them but it should make a connection anyway
-My pinout scheme is wrong ( most plausible option ).
- Anything specific at the famicom player 2 or the fact that it's a square version.
2nd phase: make the mic work probably with the enio exp board or even harwiering it to the board.
No thing tested so far but if someone has a solution I'm interested. Need to make my controller work first .
If you need pictures or anything let me know.
Thanks for you help, because it's been bugging me for a while now and i really want to tackle that damn project . And sorry for that long post i wanted to be super clear.
