An early test of the guts. I’ve rewired many a Sony controller in the past, but it’s always good to check
if things are working. Of course this time I’ll have to deal with the “analog” L2 and R2 buttons of the
Sixaxis…
A better view of the main PCB in the Sixaxis. Amazingly, it’s exactly the same shape and size as a
Dual Shock board. The actual “tilt” device is a little IC at the end of a cord, not much too look at. On
the original Sixaxis / Dual Shock most of the trigger buttons are on a plastic sheet set against a separate
plastic frame, much like a keyboard is inside. Again I say, why didn’t they update the controller this
time? I mean, a REAL change? It’s getting pretty pathetic…
