MyMixed & SonyQrio's Epic 3DS Analog Stick Guide

[Kyosho]

I thought these were basically the same as a PSP nub (analog stick)? Wouldn't it just be easier/cheaper/less complicated to use one of those? You can get them very cheap off ebay (chinese knockoffs). I have two already that I ended up not using for an earlier project. As far as I know, they work well as a replacement for just about any analog stick. Or are the 3DS ones somehow better, functionally?

Kyosho:

PSP joysticks are a piece of flux. 3DS analog sticks are as close as you can get to touching the hand of God.

 

[Kyosho]

Saying something is better without saying why it's better is not particularly helpful. What is different about them, specifically?

 

[bud]

Nothing.

 

[Mario]

Silly Bud.

They have more travel and a springier feel.

 

[bud]

Eh, I'm not THAT picky. If something works, it works.

 

[SonyQrio]

They are the best analog stick out there..... period.

 

[nuke]

It is better....But the PSP ananlog is 1$.....
The 3DS is a god damned 13$.
Most of us aren't going to pay 12$ more for something that is somewhat better than the cheaper counterpart.
Not saying I won't get one because if this flax works....Ill get a million lol.

So that's what u were working on, huj

 

[Kyosho]

Ah, SS, that was hilarious. Good work. Maybe I'll get some 3DS sticks next month. Or at least mess with one on a display unit at Walmart to see if it's even worth bothering for me. I've never used a 3DS.

Edit: Me with the first post on yet another page of this thread? Oh, Heck, have an image to celebrate, then.

SMILE Dang YOU!

That video made my day!!

Just a quick question SS you have the axis resistor going to ground I assume right. The original design required 3x 1k resistors do you only require 2? 1 on each axis?

 

[ShockSlayer]

I didn't even look at the, uh, "original design." I have 3022 Ohms on the X axis and 3525 Ohms on the Y, and nothing else.
