Sega Dreamcast Arcade Stick Mod (Part 1/2)

[LeeMan00]

Do you know if its possible to do this Arcade Stick mode to the Sega Saturn stick?

[TheMrDiddlez]

Oh btw, thx for the great tutorial, very nice and detailed :)

[TheMrDiddlez]

I am about to do this soon. So standard 30mm buttons do not fit? What tool would you recommend to widen metal plate? A dremel?

[food4damoon]

how do i get the green ball of the joystick?

[food4damoon]

@food4damoon off*

[TheronInc]

@food4damoon Hold the actual stick with one hand and turn the ball top counterclockwise with your other hand.

I don't really like the buttons in my DC arcade stick so I'm going to switch them for micro switch Sanwa ones like you used. Can you recommend a good place to order them from in Europe?. I only need 6 black.

[TheronInc]

This is the way to go:

arcadeshop. de/index. php? language=en

I was very satisfied when I bought my parts there. =)

[RetroGameTech]

Thanks!. I think this is going to be my next project/mod. I'll do a vid when I do mine too. Thanks again for the info!.

[sonicrulz14]

Wow I always thought fixing a contoller would be hard but you make it seem easy.

[StriderHiryuNinja]

Can I still buy on of these arcade sticks on Internet.

If I can can you give me a link

Thanks ^^

[TheronInc]

You will have to search ebay for one of these babies.^^

i heard it only works for the japanese dreamcast.

[TheronInc]

That's not true, these arcade sticks were also sold outside of Japan, plus they work in all regions. =)

[CGM5]

oh okay. i heard about it back then, it was just that i wasn't able to find 1.

[illuminatuzz]

i hope im not late. try amazon i got one today. it was blaze it's 15 quid it aint fancy looking but its good. but u can get proper sega ones or hori for cheaper

[RawFishSushi]

how did you wire the buttons?

[mickissocool1]

where did u get the parts?

[TheronInc]

I got the parts from a German shop located at arcadeshop. de, but I'm sure that those of you living outside of Europe should find cheaper shops on their respective continent.

[EirikHendenMedia]

Nice! ^^ 5/5!

[TheronInc]

Thanks for watching! =)

[lukeywookey1234]

wow dude that looks awesome!! you know what your doing dude :D

[TheronInc]

Haha, I'm glad you like it!

Have a nice day! =D

[ihearduliekgoatse]

nice, man.

seems great so far. What's the difference between the microswitch buttons and the regular ones though? the only one direcly visible to me was that they were concave instead of a convex, making it easyer to use i guess. Is the mechanism different?

[TheronInc]

Well, micro switches are more durable than most other mechanisms, and they tend to have a better, more precise feeling when you play with them (the latter is a little hard to describe, unless you have used one before^^).

[ihearduliekgoatse]

Oh, cool i understand.

[dde12321]

[TheronInc]

Thanks, mate. =)
