These controllers replicate the major design iterations of the SFC / SNES Controllers. There are two models produced: 1990 Model: Original launch model that uses two 8-bit shift registers. Note that this model is not PAL compatible without modification 1992 Model: Revised version that uses a single 16-bit shift registers. If the Only-P resistors are placed, it can also run on PAL systems. DISCLAIMER / COMPATIBILITY NOTES: Building a controller with third party parts almost always requires tuning for micro-tolerance issues. All parts (boards, shells, rubber pads, buttons, etc) have tolerance ranges that may not overlap cleanly in all combinations. Even a small 0.1mm gap resulting from tolerance clashes between parts can reduce sensitivity, specifically on diagonals on the d-pads or the shoulder buttons. Please note, these issues happen on the stock boards too, this is why 3rd party silicone pads are notorious for stiff diagonals. As these boards are 1:1 replicas of stock, the same thing happens to them. Stock pads that are torn or worn down may also malfunction. Worn pads can be tuned. Torn pads generally need replaced. Fortunately this is extremely easy to tune to your desired set of parts, so a full guide is covered in the documentation, along with links to known possible parts. Please have a look over the guidelines in the documentation below before purchasing. This project will be Open Source Hardware. We believe in your right to repair! github.com/starlightk7/OpenSFC Project Documentation: starlightk7.github.io/OpenSFC Join the discussion on Discord here: discord.gg/DjXvPDA6Vv Please note: This product requires basic soldering and desoldering skills along with the appropriate tools. Please review the documentation and/or install video carefully before purchasing to understand the project requirements. You will need to purchase a compatible donor unit, and optionally, any parts you wish to use new separately. There is no guarantee that you can make a successful build simply by purchasing this product. 1up Restorations is an authorized distributor of Starlightk7.
