Does anyone here happen to know where I may possibly find Famicom DB-9 controller pinouts?
Looking around, time and again I find the common dendy one, like the one shown on the right of this image
The problem is that the Famulator does NOT use this pinout. I've hacked apart the DB-9 cord to try and learn its secrets, and this is what I discovered.
Rather than look like this:
__________
1 \ x o o o x / 5
\ o x o x /
6 `"""' 9
it instead looks like this:
__________
1 \ x o o o x / 5
\ o x x o /
6 `"""' 9
the signals are for this pinout the top middle three and the bottom outer two.
Because I hacked apart the controller edge, I know what color wires each pin corresponds to
x ORG YEL RED x
BLK x x BRN
but even knowing all this still doesn't yield any results. Soldering an NES cord to each of the five wires and then plugging it in to my nes and running the nintendo joypad test via the powerpak yeilds no results, so I know for certain that the pinout for the dandy Famiclones is not correct. I've tried many different sequences and they all come out as bad.
So i need help finding a pinout that will work. If it'll help, I'll gladly post a pic of the controller PCB, though as its a gloptop I'm not sure how much help that would be.
I'm sure I had read something about Famiclone pinouts on the nesdev wiki in the past
all I can find is the tutorial that I wrote myself

Any help is greatly appreciated.
