Analog CyberStick Demo Vid
« on: April 17, 2012, 05:46:31 AM »
Thought I'd start a new topic to be less confusing.  Anyway, here's a demo vid of this thing in action with all 5 known games. :)

Is Outrun actually controlling in analog in this vid? Didn't look like it to me, I may be wrong though.

Are there any other analog controllers either made for the PCE or compatible with the PCE via adapters?

Yay!  And the "crazy guy" is called Soop, pronounced "soup" :P

Somehow I watched most of that video in its entirety, and I took away, "he said shaft."

Clearly you are not playing enough Virtual Cameraman 2.

This is really cool.  I never thought any more significant hardware features would be discovered on the PCE.

On a different note, I've tried to watch a few of your videos now (some LD/Vajra 2 stuff, the Virtual Cushion, and this) and they would benefit greatly from a little more tripod action and some concision (light editing or a loose script/outline).  I hate to criticize because you've done a great service by bringing these rarities to light, but I'm a grumpy old man at heart and I get impatient easily.  You used a tripod in most of this one and it was great. 

Regardless, thank you very much for the video.

tripod? lol it was on a stool, which was balenced by jamming a cd case underneath it.  If you want a real tripod, feel free to ship me one.  My recording gear was all paid for from my own pocket.  As for video quality, take it or leave it.  I am a gamer that makes vids when I'm bored.  Making videos is fun, but editing is not fun, I find it boring and I only have so much free time.  And I will never write a script, I just can't read from one and feel natural.  Sure I may repeat some stuff, and go off on tangents, but that's just my personality.  Improv is just how I roll, there are plenty of perfectly edited "professional youtube reviewers" already.  I just like sharing stuff most people haven't seen before.

Yes, there's another one thta's pretty similar to the Saturn's analog controller.

Nice video :D

I love the fact you can swap the throttle and stick over!

That may or may not work.  I currently don't have one to test with.  But I have some FM Towns games which do support that controller, but they do not work with the Cyberstick at all.

Out of interest, can you try it with Space Harrier?  Seems to fit with the rest of the games that work.

SuperDeadite, is there any way you could open up the XHE-3 and post pictures? I'm really curious to know exactly what's inside the thing, and whether or not it includes any ICs. Its a bit hard to find, so it would be nice if it was possible for people to make their own.

Space Harrier does not work.  Grahf, due to the way it's built, I can't really get any pics worth a damn.  But there's not much in there, just 2 caps, about 6 resistors, and 1 IC, labeled:  TOSHIBA 74HC157AP, plus the Select and Run buttons, that's it.
