New buttons?

[Sonic-NKT]

Hi,
what about new/more buttons in your gp32 ?
sounds cool and should be possible...

How to get 6 extra buttons?
well..
just add 6 buttons in the gp32 case and wire 'em as combos of

C = LS + A
D = LS + B2
E = LS + SELECT
F = RS + A
G = RS + B
H = RS + SELECT

or.. START + A, etc...

it's easy AS hell
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
so i think 6 are to much but what about 1 or 2...

i made a picture to see what it would look like if you do it very well
i think it would be awesome:

I think the best way is to put another EXT port wired up so you can connect a real game controller to it and the right keys are pressed But for things like Snes9xGP you would need some simple processor or something, too so it cycles through the buttons automaticially for you (the select button)

 

[nerd of nerds]

oh sweet merciful crap you people!!! WHY??? WHY IN the hell would you want an extra button?

 

[rcx21000]

A prob with the key combo thingy, what if you are pressing more than one key at once? And there cant be something like A = Start + Select + A B = Start + Select, cuz then B would be triggered when you press A

WHY IN the hell would you want an extra button?

to press?

 

[GurtyGurt]

To annoy GBA owners!

 

[TandeM]

4 face buttons for SNES would be nice...

 

[declaration]

Damn right it would. Using the 6 button mode in Snes9x is rubbish and plain annoying.

 

[bradley]

while 2 extra buttons would be cool for snes, what snes games need the full 6 buttons, street fighter is probably the only game i've played that couldn't be played properly, even with features like fast button mapping switching in the emu

F-Zero?

 

[Rico]

The earlier key mapping idea someone had was very good... You could probably do something like A=A, B=B, but when R is pressed A=X, B=Y, when L is pressed A=R, B=L.

 

[bradley]

instead of having 2 buttons with L and R as toggle buttons can't u just have 3 buttons with 1 toggle,

A B and R act as 3 buttons, hold L and they act as the other 3 buttons, that way u can potentially hold 3 buttons at once instead of just 2

 

[SephirothIce]

All sports games almost need all buttons, like NBA Jam, NBA Live Series, Tecmo Super Bowl, Madden.

 

[bringoutthegimp]

i have to say, that extra button would look mighty funky

 

[NssOne]

I thought NBA Jam only used like 3 buttons? I remember only 3: Pass, Shoot, and Turbo.

 

[VeNoM]

Still think that it looks weird..
Why not the way the Snes had? :S

Makes sense to me :huh:

 

[Mofokubik]

Why does it have to revolve around snes, all of those sports games are on genesis too, and gp32 has enough buttons for genesis.

 

[NiN^_^NiN]

Depends if your using a 3 button game or a 6 button game for the megadrive

h34r:

 

[Mofokubik]

The original megadrive/genesis controller was only 3 buttons, and all games still work fine on a 3 button controller. Where is the problem?
