Beko Pharm (deprecated)

Crimped roughly 250 connectors and did lots of soldering. Still WIP but I rolled the first successful button tests!!1eleven

More tomorrow. Falling asleep here 🥱

(Ignore the wobbling, there are almost no supporting frames behind for easier access to the wires).

@bekopharm Whoa, you have all that acting as a regular joystick in Linux?!? That's so cool!

@minego yes. This is a Wintendo free gamer household after all 😁

@bekopharm What are you using as a controller? Something Arduino based?

Kinda makes me want to 3D print an enclosure and build something, although mine would be much less elaborate I'm sure.

@minego yes, it's a Mega.

Started out with a generic arcade joystick pcb. Basically a gamepad 😁
