Excellent write up.

Was wondering if you were going to host your sketch code up? As a follow on from blogspots “little-scale”, you appear to have a strong grasp in reading in the controller data really well.

I’m interested in building on this project to make the nes controller be a basic literal lock as a tiny storage compartment – to open the nes controller you’ll need to enter the code.

if you have modded a nes port into your computer or are using something like a four score you could wire teh usb data into pins six and seven as these do not get used on the nes controller (they may do but i have yet to find out what) the you have a super sneaky controller that no one would ever suspect unless they were that bothered to the point of opening the case. if this were teh case tho i would put some sort of code into teh arduino script so that after mashing all the buttons or something it would then start to listen for the chosen passcode so if you have chosen your favorite password you wont accidently trip it revealing the seacrets within.
