Hey, all. Was thinking of making an arcade controller. Is al

Basically. It looks to be one of the shittiest kits I have ever seen but yeah, it should work. For the price, you won't have lost much money if the buttons turn out to be mushy and the joystick terrible. If it does work out for you, hey, bonus. If not, you can always build with better components when you make Mark II. Learning on a cheap kit is never a bad idea.

It should be ok. The controller will be but short if you don't top mount it on the panel, and the buttons, although definitely not original sanwa buttons, will work ok. I would advise making sure you have the right tools before you start... The last buttons I got were 30mm buttons, and a torn apart garage and 3 hardware stores later, I decided to just order the hole saw on the net, because I was not about to spend $25 on some overpriced shit brand.

I mean all a controller is made of is some buttons, a joystick and a micro controller.

And a box, and a finish and design on the control panel, and most importantly, love for the game

I'm imagining you'd prefer the black knob, reminding you more of what you're getting on the reg, my friend.

Yea but before you buy that:
1. those are snap-in buttons which can only snap in to a hole made in a very thin, strong piece of material (between 2.4-4.2mm thickness if it's a sanwa copy). So depending on the material you're going to make the box out of, that might not be ideal (like for wood). There are screw-in buttons you can get instead that can go into much thicker material.
2. cheap arcade parts often suck and can result in bad inputs. idk anything about the quality of those, if you're trying to throw something together for cheap or don't plan on using it a lot, those might be fine. If you want to spend a lot of time making a nice controller or plan on using it a lot, then it might be worth it to get sanwa or seimitsu parts.
3. If you're planning on using it with PS4 I wouldn't trust that PCB unless they release regular updates. PS4 updates their firmware to break third-party controllers all the time. I have a Brook PCB and they release a patch every time PS4 messes with custom controllers.

Any recommended button set? Would probably make a wood box for it, so would need to screw in buttons, I guess.

check the spreadsheet towards the bottom of this page:

I used the Sanwa OBSN-30's in my wood box, I like that style of button - very short activation and hardly any resistance. I guess the Seimitsu are similar. Happ (American-style) buttons are a different, more springy kind of button.

Can these controllers be used in anything? Win10? xbox1? PS4?

thanks

there isn't a spreadsheet for the USB interface controllers, is there?

oh my, i never though there's a option B(lack)

>win10
Yes
>xbone
Some boards, check compatibility beforehand
>ps4
as anon above said, PS4 fucks with third party controllers and you should definitely check beforehand for compatibility.

I suppose you prefer red concerning your naive political leanings.
