The Super Nintendo to DB15 Controller Adapter enables the use of Super Nintendo/Famicom controllers with DB15 compatible superguns such as the MiniGun Supergun and HAS (Home Arcade System).

The controller adapter was designed by Arthrimus and hand constructed locally.

It can also be used with the Neo Geo AES. However, the AES controller ports are not standard DB15. As the AES ports are set deeper into the console than a normal DB15 port to use thus adapter with the AES, you need to use an extension cable.

Features: 

• Full user customizable button mapping. Buttons 1-6 and coin can be remapped to any of the face and shoulder buttons. This also allows for mapping duplicates of the same button.

• Auto fire with 6 speed options from 30hz down to 6hz

• Status LED to help navigate button remapping and auto fire configuration modes.

• All settings saved to the internal EEPROM of the micro-controller so they persist after power cycling the adapter.

Button Remapping and Autofire instructions:

To enter button remapping mode, hold any 2 face buttons and START simultaneously for 3 seconds. Once in remapping mode, press each button the corresponding number of times to achieve the desired output based on the list below.

• Button 1 = 1 press

Button 2 = 2 presses

• Button 3 = 3 presses

• Button 4 = 4 presses

• Button 5 = 5 presses

• Button 6 = 6 presses

• N/A = 7 presses

Press Start to exit remapping mode.

To enter auto fire programming mode, hold any single face button and START simultaneously for 3 seconds. Once in auto fire programming mode, press each button that you want to set as auto fire the number of times that corresponds to the desired speed in the list below.

• ~30hz = 1 press

• ~20hz = 2 presses

• ~15hz = 3 presses

• ~12hz = 4 presses

• ~7.5hz = 5 presses

• ~6hz = 6 presses

Press Start to exit auto fire mode.

HAS Mode:  

The button mapping modes are controlled using the same combinations as the HAS supergun. This was done to make these adapters convenient for people familiar with the HAS system to use, but if you are using one of these adapters with a HAS supergun, you will find that the button mapping modes conflict with one another. As a workaround, Arthrimus had added a way to disable button remapping and auto fire. You can toggle this mode on or off by pressing and holding L1 + R1 + Select for 5 seconds.

Brook Fix: 

Brook Retro Boards have a bug in the SNES mode that causes occasional dropped inputs. As a workaround  the “Brook Fix” is implemented. When the Brook Fix is enabled, every time a button is released the code waits one extra cycle to make sure the button is actually released before setting the button as released on the output. The resulting fix stops random button releases, but comes with the penalty of adding 16ms of lag on button releases. Button presses are not affected by this lag.

To turn the Brook Fix on press and hold any 5 buttons (excluding select and d-pad) + START for 3 seconds.

To turn the Brook Fix off press and hold any 6 buttons (excluding select and d-pad) + START for 3 seconds.’

• The setting persists through power cycles so you don’t have to enable/disable it every time you use the adapter.

Housing Options:

• The housing is 3D printed in PLA. It is currently available in various color options: The default color is grey, please send me a message if you want a different color.
