What chip or chips are you trying to program? But yes, that's the exact same programmer

Dude, my diagram shows up a different color ever time I check it. It was green before, now it's red. Xmas themed graphic? LOL! Maybe I'll re-save as a PNG. It's pretty hard to read when it's monochromatic :/

The diagram says it's a Attiny 2313.


Frankly I'm surprised it doesn't need those other parts I've seen in other like adapters, like resistors and whatnot.


The diagram you posted is still showing up as green.

After a little more searching, I can buy that adapter you recommended and build a 20 pin adapter for it. http://www.evilmadscientist.com/2007...target-boards/

Fixed that image.

Any progress on putting the wireless controller parts into an original SNES controller?

Actually yes, I have that all sorted out. Got it working, just need to clean up the mess of wires and pack everything into the controller and receiver housing.

I've reached out to the fellow that figured those setup out and asked either for his permission to use the info and files he's created to make kits and/or modded units to sell, or any interest he may have in making some money by helping out. He specifically states that he'd rather people not use his work for financial gain, and I can totally appreciate that and will respect his wish if that's what he wants in the end.

Hopefully I'll hear something back soon.

I would totally buy a kit to mod one of my controllers.

According to this, these can make a fine kit for a wired retro adapter.:

Atmel ATmega8-P 12MHz Crystal, HC49U or U4 package 22pF ceramic disc capacitor 100nF ceramic disc capacitor 10µF electrolytic capacitor 68Ω resistor, 0.125w 2k2Ω resistor, 0.125w 3V6 Zener diode, 0.5w 1 row pin headers 1 USB-B PCB header 2 2x3 6 pin header 3 10kΩ resistor, 0.125w 4

And with a breadboard!

This could be cheaper than getting a wireless one.

I don't see the point :/

Greetings all - does anyone happen to know what the size of the 6x screws are for the NES that holds the top half to the bottom half. I had one apart for awhile, and somehow the screws have wandered off since then.....

Thanks for any info anyone has.

I believe they are 1/2 inch length Phillips. Probably 1/16 inch diameter. They have a rounded head and a flat end. I measured to the best of my ability. They appear almost rainbow finished in the light.

There was just a thread about this on cover project. Lemme see if I can find it...

http://www.thecoverproject.net/forum...?topic=11841.0

That discussion is about cartridges, though, and Captain Insano is talking about the console itself. I'm not sure what size they are, but Nintendo Repair Shop sells them:

What was wrong with my answer? And how long has nintendo repair shop existed? There went my idea for a website that I never followed through with in 2002.

D'oh!

Nothing, just that the post @ TCP was VERY specific, albeit for the wrong thing. Derp.

Nothing, really; my answer is just more convenient. Heh. I'm not sure how long they have been in business, but I know the site has been around since at least 2005.

Thanks for all the info everyone - Thanks for the measurements Slowdive21. I didn't realize the ones inside the NES are the same size as the 6x outside ones (Thanks ZombieToast + Nintendo Repair Shop for that info). I'll take one out of the inside and see if i can find a match anywhere locally. I had always kept the outside screws separate from the inside ones when taking the NES apart.

All this trouble just to put in a blue LED.... MOD stage one of many for this NES (hopefully).

Good luck! Make sure to post pics when you get it done

I think there are 2 screws that are longer inside, but I haven't taken one apart for a while.
