 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

 PC3-piconesPlus_046.zip Hello everyone, I've adapted the pico-infonesPlus retro gaming console emulator project for the PICO COMPUTER 3 hardware. pico-infonesPlus Video output: DVI or HDMI Sound output: I2S or HDMI Controls: two NES/SNES controllers, Wii controller, USB keyboard or gamepads. I've currently assigned the HEC controller connections to ports GP0...GP5 GP0 - CLK GP3 - CLK GP1 - DATA GP4 - DATA GP2 - LATCH GP5 - LATCH I would like to somehow decide on a standard connection for these game controllers to PC3 In general, I would like to know about your interest in porting this emulator? I am sure the author of the project will not refuse to make a ready-made configuration for PC3 hardware. |

 ExcellentThere may in the future be a series of articles on the pc3 and the various codebases available for it in Silicon Chip Magazine (and eventually Practical Electronics) so it would be great to add this as another firmware. Personally I would prefer you used GP34-GP39 for the HEC controller but this isn't a big deal Edited 2026-08-21 01:08 by matherp |

Although you don't need to in this case, it's quite possible to share the clock and latch lines for NES/SNES controllers. Each controller needs its own data pin. The number of controllers is limited by how many data channels you read. :) Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |
