Homebrew DC Twinsticks Possible (Maybe)

[Smurph]

The theory of this is that by using devices such as relays, logic gates, or a PIC (Programmable Integrated Circuit), one can condense the amount
of wires from a complex control scheme to something simple enough to solder onto the limited contact points of a dreamcast controller.
In this way, true homebrew twin sticks are possible (At least in my head), with just a few parts found at RadioShack (and the purchase of arcade 4-way trigger joysticks)


**Logic Operations**

IF Left-UP AND Right-UP-----------------//dash forward
IF Left-DOWN AND Right-DOWN-----------------//dash backwards
IF Left-UP AND Right-DOWN-----------------//pivot right
IF Right-UP AND Left-DOWN-----------------//pivot left



**Logic Operations**
IF Left-LEFT AND Right-LEFT---------------------- //dash left
IF Left-RIGHT AND Right-RIGHT----------------------//dash right
IF Left-LEFT AND Right-RIGHT---------------------- //jump
IF Left-RIGHT AND Right-LEFT----------------------//block

Your thoughts and input are welcome.

i found vtchid drivers on a japanese site though i cant recall from where so i googled it for you essential its a programmable driver for the steel battalion controller which would be sick as twin stick
