if you bought a bad controller from adafruit and it didnt work you should contact support@adafruit.com! we'll replace it but only if you tell us about it, eh? :) I didn't want to bother you over a $6 controller and I was worried that it might be a common problem with these controllers - I didn't wa...

But relative to me, you're a f'in genius. :D Everyone starts at the beginning. :) I did a little more testing with a 330-ohm resistor - I could reliably turn on or turn off the letters if I tied the data line to ground or V+ respectively. Also confirming that I got the signal reversed on the logic ...

More fun: I opened the controller again to poke around inside and a few of the wires broke off the board. I spent 20 minutes or so trying to strip and resolder them. I don't know what the conductor is made of but it appears to be four gossamer strands of carbonized horsehair. Painful to work with. I...

The Fuzebox doesn't have a lot of wiring that can get crossed but I picked around the board with a multimeter and a magnifier for a while. Again, nothing looked unusual. I popped open the SNES controller and recognized the silver dimples under the left and right buttons as the same from my poor old ...

Thanks - I had the feeling that was what was supposed to happen; I suspect something's messed up on the board now. :/ When I fire the thing up with controller #1 plugged in, I get "Player 1: UDLRABXYSLSR". When I unplug the controller, it changes to just "Player 1:" There's no ch...

What's the best way to test if the (F)uzebox can read the controller? I'm testing my Fuzebox after final assembly and I am wondering how to test if my controller works. I'm not convinced there's a problem since I don't know what I should expect out of the preloaded demo code. I have a couple thought...

Would Doxygen help with API & code docs? I'd hate to see you repeat effort, changing the wiki when the code changes or worse, not changing the wiki when the code changes.
