i wanna modify my saturn pad to work on ps2. is this a simple task?

Ummmm... I think it will be extremely hard.

You would have to hack a PS2 pcb, put it inside the Saturn pad and make the Saturn buttons/directions work with the PS2 psb.

There use to be Saturn->PS2 converters on playasia a longtime ago.  Look on trademe or ebay for them otherwise try to hack you pads.

Really? I thought it would be simple as people are making sticks from scratch all the time. Man nothing is ever easy.

Its the same principle, the difference being you have a much smaller workspace inside the saturn pad than in a stick to make all the connections etc. Definitely doable, just fiddly as a motherfucker.

In all practical terms, impossible, at least without a converter.

Yup.  People have made controllers work for other consoles (ie benhack ) but unless your very good with electronics then it is impossible.

also I just realised it doesn't have a 'select' button.
