Check out this awesome robot arcade with controls based around this project! kzread.info/dash/bejne/nauHuLlpe5aoirw.html

Pretty clever. If you're not an arcade purist, you can add a secondary version of each mode that includes a press-and-hold function to make the buttons turbo. Despite having seen multiple Pico tutorials, yours is the first that really shows how easy it is to register inputs. Perhaps it's time to actually start that MIDI controller I've always thought of!

Absolutely. You could even add a modifier button to allow you to record several actions and bind them to a button, for games with special moves. Or add a potentiometer using one of the analog inputs to have a variable speed turbo. Glad you liked the tutorial

Your "mode select" is one of the things that eluded me last year (code wise) when I was working on something similar, but for radio control. I wanted to have a mode toggle depending on which radio it is operating. That is absolutely brilliant!

Love the turtle green and turtle shell brown base. Amazing work on the design and thought. I'm always impressed by the designs and considerations for wiring space. Very cool project and thanks for sharing!

I am so jealous of your soldering skills. I have several burned out pieces of kit due to my lack of ability.

Ahhh such nostalgia! I think I know what we are playing with this weekend.

_Translator:_ It's a great project. I'm waiting for Pico and will make a DB9>USB adapter.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy them!

Awesome work! We also have the new turtles game, your video made me want to try it again on my fight stick though!

I really like the idea. I wonder if you could get those bluetooth chatpads for the dualsense running with the pico. Would be amazing.

Another awesome video with a cool project. One of these days I'll get around to building a full arcade cabinet from scratch and I'm gonna toss so many rPi Picos into that dang thing lol

It would be nice to have the joy stick function as an analog joystick as well, maybe add a trackball so FPS games are more playable. I also think it would be nice to be able to map buttons using the onboard display with a "record" mode.

Very clean build, excellent job!

Hey, I'm really struggling with getting code to work. I've copied directly from the description. Any thoughts? Specifically the gamepad object.

Hi, I was wondering if the Pico can be used to make a wired/wireless gamepad... Like 2 Arduino joystick modules with a Pico? Also, can the project be made wireless with a pi pico w?

Can you use picoboot as a two player hid

I was looking for this! Nicely done. Will you ever make the PCB schematic available for download?

Would be glad to! The fabrication file is already in the description if you want to get one made but, if you're looking to modify it or design your own, I'm glad to publicize the rest of the design stuff as well

I tried and rewatch the video five time. But I am stuck at 14:54 because Window keep understanding my RP2040 as a usb key. Must we have a Raspberry Pi Pico for the code to work ? ( I am on a Seeed Xiao RP2040)

when you say you could change these values to add an analog stick. can you give an example of this? change the x + y val on line 155+ 156? to what?

Could the different modes be used so the control could be used for different systems? e.g mode 1 pc. Mode 2 xbox. Mode 3 firestick

can you please provide circuit diagram

hello i see you know a lot about raspberry pi pico.(idk much about coding and pico)can you help do this thing, i want to delay all my mouse data by 1 second(to make my friend confused its a april fools project), so i have mouse and i want to connect it to the raspberry pi pico and connect the raspberry pi pico to my computer, and the mouse sends data at a 500hz so i want to send the data through the pico at a 500hz. please tell me if this is possible?

I prefer Arduino IDE. Can i do similar project with it?

nice video!

Its possible to use 2 joysticks on the same board?

will you try to make ps5 styled controller with pi pico, love your projects

It's 2022. I know its a few dollars extra, but can we please start using USB C instead of USB B?

@PrintNPlay

Жыл бұрын

I personally still prefer USB B as a more robust connector where size isn't an issue. But, since it's just a pass through connector, it's easy for you to swap it if you build one!

I don't know why, but the code doesn't work for me... I press the button but it doesn't do anything. But when I hold it down for a long time, it does ALL the actions of each of the modes for that button!!! and as long as you keep it pressed, it cyclically performs those actions. Could you please review the code that I uploaded to Drive and see if it has any errors or is missing something? drive.google.com/file/d/14uTh3a02tMCkcp3FfbZZoes4GFEeY-ae/view?usp=sharing

I am not a real programmer, just an hobiest A. Fortunately - It works for me - but litle bit trouble - display menu keep scrolling, what switch you use for GP22 (menu selector) - tactical switch? B. I only need gamepad function - then I tried deleted 2 - 4 function on menu selection + set 1 instead 5 - so when it run it keep on gamepad function - it works but on control panel button response sooo slowly - what's should I do? Anw, thx for amazing tutorial !!! & sorry for my bad English 😃

Hey, is this still working?

For classic Xbox?

I hope there's a C/C++ HID library for the Pico out there. Python is a horrendous (and slow as hell) language, which does't do justice to this amazing board.
