SNES your Bluetooth Gamepad

– May 12, 2010Posted in: Diy, General, Headline, Snes

If you are tired of using your SIXAXIS as a wireless controller with other non-Sony devices, then it is time to build your own. Instructables details a way for you to take an old SNES controller you might have lying around and bring it up to speed with Bluetooth tech.

You start by removing the innards of an MSI BGP100 Bluetooth gamepad from its awkward body. Perform a transplant of the BGP100 electronics into the SNES controller, which also had its guts cleaned out. You will need to do a little cutting, soldering and forcing your way into the SNES. However, for what it’s worth, the battery is upgraded to AA for more gaming time over the BGP100. Similar to the Zeemote JS1, the SNES Bluetooth gamepad can even control the newest mobile devices without having to rely on an insensitive virtual D-pad.

See, even the SNES Bluetooth controller, in all its nostalgic glory, can be made to keep up with the latest games on the latest mobile platform. It just needs bit of help from you.
