First off, Hi to all you guys on gp32x.de.

Just finished a mod I've been planning for a while, using an external controller on the gp32. I used a SNES controller for the first mod because I had a few spair. Now its done I am sure I can use any controller I want. Its cool for playing on the train to work.

Check it out.

That looks excellent. Any chances of getting some shots of how it hooks onto the handheld? I assume it uses the mini-USB, right?

Yeah no wories. Its not a mini usb its a 15pin din. I wanted something that would act as a stand too. Just sorting a pic. 5 min. . .

Yep, part of the reson I used the SNES controller was that it has the sholder buttons.

Looks great F00 f00!

But this should be moved to GP32 news to save confusion...

Sorry Man my fault. Any admins about that can do that?

I just feel scared when I see any mod that involves drilling into the case, like the built in usb mod for the GP2X and this mod, which looks so great, the only thing I would wish for if my GP32 had one extra button so I can have six buttons games play flawlessly, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, WWF Wrestle Mania, god I've always wished I can enjoy them fully on my GP32 :(
Very brave mod FOO_f00, welcome to the community and thanks for the post :)

Thanks man. Yeah I had to cut a whole for it. I void alot of waranties. Theres actualy BAGS of room inside the gp32. You could fit all kinds of things in there.

Nice! Acting as a stand is a greate feature aswell, would love to have that on my GP2X, also good when you watch movies... Good job!

Any plans for a GP2X version? =)
 
Thanks everone.

Do you mean in a headrest? I could defanatly do that. I bult a car pc last year, but then killed the car about two months later, total bummer.

I dont have a GP2X. I do plan on getting one though, probably some time in the new year, I'll defanatly have a go at this mod.

Nicely done, but what's the use?
Er. . .well, the main reason was to be able to play old roms with the right controller. As I said befor I play on the train to work :unsure:

Using external hand controllers,would also prolong the life of the GP32 too,since it'd obviously save wear and tear on the unit.

Nice work BTW,F00 f00...very cool idea indeed.
