SNES-I2oTHack2019

Used software:

• Arduino IDE
• Geany

Used Hardware:

• esp32
• raspberry pi 3
• Super Nintendo Entertainment System
• Snes Controller
• some resistors

Used online resources:

• SNES controller timing diagram: https://www.mikrocontroller.net/attachment/173921/snes_timing.gif
• Explanation of protocol: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/snes/916396-super-nintendo/faqs/5395
• SNES cable pin-out: http://www.tacticalcode.de/2013/06/snespaduino-super-nintendo-gamepad-fur-arduino.html/snespad_pin_labels

The project enables to simulate a snes controller with a microcontroller. The button configuration is send to the microcontroller over serial. This enables to automatically run a sequence of commands on the snes. This project was build in three days during the I2oTHack2019 in the university of Kassel.
