New mod for vita
« on: June 02, 2012, 08:02:35 AM »
What it is and why....
The vita needs a grip attatchment . It can be uncomfortable for extended gameplay. Most grips solve this. So today I will order 2 of these.


The first one I will mod an extra battery into and amplified speakers.
I got this one figured out.
I am thinking about modding the connector on the go charging/ amplified speaker set up on this. The go charges the same as vita just different connector. I have extra Vita USB charge cables. Cut the cable solder to the board where the go connector was and re case the modded board to the grip.


The second one is something a lil different. and what I want to do is add R2 L2 triggers to my second grip. maybe add R3 L3 button also. This is for remote play of PS3 games. And for use on the new resistance game as for now you can use any of these buttons as a double tap to run. You can also use the dpad down to run , which works well for thumbing while using left stick to run forward but not the greatest control for side running.
Rear panel control screen shot. I was activating the rear R2 L2 touch panels in the shot.

I am planning on using these to activate the rear touch button panels. I will use the extras on my tablet for gaming controls for emu's.



The grip I chose slightly covers each pad needed for PS3 full control. The cutout for the pad is oval , as the touch pad is a rectangle. So the corners are slightly covered by the grip. So I will install the capacitive touch buttons on the corners. I am thinking about  using the triggers from xbox to act as the mechanical trigger for the buttons.
