Okay here is the dealio my buddy wanted to take two older ps2 joysticks and try a little something with them. What he wanted to do was take two gamepad and wire them as one so when playing the latest olympic game he would not have to pass the game pad back and forth (no multiplayer with multiple gamepads) so he got me to open the wire and splice the 2nd joystick into each wire which i did. and to no surprise to me it didn't work. I was just wondering if it would work if i did this one thing differnt. what he wants it for both gamepads to work as the same one. here is how i did it.
1st gen ps2 game pad - main one that gets plugged in. has one extra wire/pin a grey one. this one we used the cord as the one that gets plugged in to the consol.
2nd gen ps2 game pad - cut the plug off of this one to splice into the above gamepad. doesn't have the grey wire. missing the 2nd last pin.
both are dual analog/shock
any help would be apreciated,
would the above work if i wired the first gamepad into the 2nd? if not any ideas?
