That link you provided doesn't want to work for me. I'd be inclined to think that a 3S pack would be too high a voltage for the PS2, you could down regulate it or run parallel sets of 2S if you wanted more juice :) Were you able to test at what point was "too much voltage", and I hope you...

You know I was actually wondering that myself. From a battery angle it'd be really handy if the unit would run off of 9v without issues even, but truth be told I didn't have the opportunity to test it because my little variable transformer decided to die on me. I'd imagine that some of the...

That rings a little bell in my head (and forgive me if this is wrong) but I was under the impression (from what I learnt something like fifteen years ago) that those magnetic transformers were only necessary for sending data long distances.

Hey Miceeno: I wish I'd known that when I was developing a region mod for the N64! The damn thing just kept on bricking up and would come right days later!

That is a SHARP build! Great job!!!!

This is so delightfully different I love it!!!

The adapter I found successful was a dirt-cheap on that I picked up off of a local buy and sell site - and I'd dismantled several but this one was the only one that didn't get destroyed in the process. It's actually the very one that's in my video above (I'd just got it when I made the video).

Ok, never one to leave well-enough alone, I'm still not happy with that battery pack. I need to "build it better" and that'll involve a better charging circuit. I've decided to go with this one, and here's the question: can this charge batteries with an 8.5V power supply or does it have to be...

What PIC are you using? I recently expanded a project to translate PS2 to N64 using what's probably exactly that - there's some good libraries you can use with assembly, although I'd imagine that the PIC chips might be getting a bit large by the time you've a pin for every button and axis?

Here you go :) This was actually a re-casing project from the first portable I made (it wasn't solid enough for me, and was made out of tupperware - I'm also not all that proud of this as I really just pulled everything out and stuffed it into the new case) given that I used the clock I got...

For what it's worth, mine turned out to be very similar. The one other stand out thing with the netplay is that you can't get any other thumbstick due to a very unique shape and size. Doesn't worry - I'm big on blue anyway!

Now where did you get those sexy Playstation buttons that fit the Wii U!? I'd love some of those!

I have been very lazy getting this up (mostly due to real life turning into a routine of working and sleeping, and finally getting the PS2 to N64 adaptor project working as I intended) and am not totally sure that I'm finished with this yet but it's kinda in the "close enough" situation. For...

I copied Darkwings idea, and used a cheap clock for the main shell which also gave me somewhere to put the batteries. The Netplay controller worked well, but is more suited to someone with large hands (which isn't me! lol). In the end the entire thing was self contained and bulletproof.

So the project is now complete (photos to follow, probably in the "projects complete" section) but she's a little on the heavy side packing 4x18650 batteries. Part of this was because I thought it'd draw a current of somewhere in the territory of 5amp thanks to the specifications on the HDMI...

It can get really frustrating at times, and often I'll put something apart, put it back together, fix the old problem and end up with a new one and won't know why. It's also good to have a backup plan. What HDMI screen were you thinking of using? I ended up going with this one, and so far it's...

The adaptor you've got looks to be the same as the one I used. This one is a pretty one to one wiring job, with four on top, and four underneath. I've noted the pins it connects to underneath (I think in left right from the bottom order as I like to wire things with reference). For...

Small suggestion about HDMI with the PS2: The PS2 HDMI adaptor does a good job of converting the video and might be smaller than the converter you've got (I used one in my project and it wires straight into the RGB and audio channels once the PS2 has been switched to Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr). The only...

Man that is some nice work! Love the case and love the insides - keeping it clean is something I've never managed to do lol

I can't see the images :(
