Making a USB Adapter for Super Nintendo Controllers

Ever want to use your authentic SNES controllers on your PC? No? Well, here's how you can do it anyway.
The Super Nintendo controllers use a communication protocol similar to SPI, so this video will teach you how to understand a protocol timing diagram and implement it. It will also give you an overview of setting up an HID descriptor so your Arduino will look like a generic gamepad. And there are some recommendations for what parts you need and how to assemble the adapter so you can use the SNES controller to play games on your PC!
