I was trying NES first since I thought that Andre had found a supplier of them and hence it might be easier to locate, but it sounds like he just did a mold himself.uze6666 wrote:Hmmm, I though we were trying for the SNES connectors? They are not much complicated than the NES ones, and there lot of SNES controller clones made for the FC twins and the like. Talking of which I just found that they have these right angle pcb mount SNES connector. Do you think you could find the sourcer of those connectors?
The SNES is interesting in that I *know* those are made in China. (We sold those FCTwins at our arcade for a while-- too many quality problems though). The problem is in finding "the" place that makes them. Those could also be custom tooled if we had to, but the right-angle pins would definitely need to be custom made as well. In for a penny, in for a pound.
I'm going to have to go scrounge my old harddrive and see if I can find an email from when I bought my PSX connectors. I got those direct from the manufacturer, maybe we'll get lucky and they'll still have an SNES mold around...
