Custom built Dreamcast arcade controller

A quick video of me playing my Dreamcast using an arcade controller which I just finished building.

The mess on the table is various things I'd used during the process.

The game is Ikaruga (an awesome game) and the video was taken with a Nokia N93

@TheJal123 Look carefully at the power light in the first few seconds. It's actually blue, I took out the Orange LED that the PAL Dreamcasts have and replaced it with a blue one since they look so much better. I also wired a blue LED into the fan vent on the right side of the Dreamcast to match it.

@Cabe64 oh ok hey can usel me a sega dreamcast not that one but another one with a custom build arcade stick i can give you 60 dollars for it

[Cabe64]

@TheJal123 No sorry, I'm in the UK. The cost of buying a Dreamcast plus the components and materials needed would be about $60 Then the postage would likely be over $60 too. I suggest you get a Dreamcast off eBay and look into making your own controller. It's not that hard really.

without the DC the 360 woudlnt exist since the DC designer went to microsoft to develop the Xbox the DC has some awesome exclusives too bad it only lasted 1,5 years great cosole nevertheless

would you be willing to sell that arcade controller?

[JutmanCustoms]

LOL, nice homage to Ikaruga!! If you like custom sticks (DC and otherwise) you should check my channel, I did a nice Dux DC stick ;)

[EmperorEva0001]

why not just stick the dreamcast inside the arcade controller?

[Corad4]

Do you have any plans on how you made that and recommendation on what to use to build it(Like the controller's guts you used and all that and where to get the joystick and all)?

I never built a controller stick or any controller what so ever, so some help would be great., and btw, other than the gray paint, yours is uber sweet :3
