Crack the axis! Inside the SIXAXIS controller |
Ó
So... do any of you have extensive knowledge of the Chinese language? We don't know why this person has it, much less where he got one of Sony's SIXAXIS controllers, but he apparently has one, and he's not only showing the thing on a Chinese forum, he's cracked it open and dissected it.
Now, there's not much information we can actually take from the article because of translation problems, but the controller looks authentic enough. One thing we could sort of understand was the cable that looked more or less like something you could insert onto a motherboard. Not really much you can use from that info unless you were a determined control modder, but it's better than none at all. Regardless, the pictures below show you different aspects of some of the controller's parts, such as the buttons you press, the board of your controller's input system, and the insides of the analog sticks.
As long as someone doesn't pre-order a PS3 for the sole purpose of gloating about it in front of a store and then smashing his newly bought console to bits, then we've really got no reason to be up in arms over the whole thing, right? So, if anyone can give a relatively accurate translation of any important discoveries on the forum post, let us know. We'll bow before your almighty Chinese skills, and ensure your place in gaming heaven.

Looks real to me
wtf does this have to do with ps3? Go post in the modding/hacking section.
Wow, the battery is only 600mAh.
Wonder how long it will last/how heavy the battery is.
30 hours from full charged.
Many sites said it is so light, much lighter than old DualShock 2
I have photoshop to brighter, and I can see the rumble holder and the bottom of mainboard have clip for space to let rumble fit.
Maybe in the future, we will see to have rumble add-on just like PSX when it was no analog sticks.
GUESS ITS THE SAME GUY.. HE UPLOADED A VID ON YOUTUBE I GUESS.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwrEjerTldM
This has ben on playstation.com for a week now
WTF LOOK AT IT, Not only have they copied nintys motion sensitivity but theyv'e copied the 360's menu button WTF!!!!!!!!
i aint seein no motion sensors.....
you mean the menu button like the one on the PSP? I could have sworn that was out before the 360. I guess sony needs their own ideas but you need some real facts.
im pretty sure thats what image 17 and 18 are of
Because the idea of a button to take you back to the main OS has been around for ages.
PSP just allowed you to quit back to the XMB, kinda like a mod'd xbox, which was out first. Also the button is not smack in the middle and larger then the others, it's off the the left and is the same size.
He was referring to the fact they have a big button in pretty much the same place, on a Console controller.
Anyways, the battery does look to plug into something that looks like a case fan power supply on a mobo....not much you could do with that though....
its old news that the button is for the menu.
Is psp the first system where you can get to the menu without a reboot? (honest question)
like the wiimote, fake... :S where is the motion sensor? or the pressure sensitive buttons? :S
That's because those motion sensors are just chips.
