Make a original snes controller to a wii classic one?

[tonev]

Is it possible to make a original snes controller to a wii classic one?

I was thinking that i can use the cable from an broken nunchuk and solider the wires to the original cable connector since i found a picture of the board and it looks like the original one

Nintendo sold an official version of this in Japan....I have one that I have rarely used, still have the box too.
EDIT: Also noticed that the pic you have attached looks A LOT like the inside of one of these....

I know that they have it in Japan but I was wondering if an actual snes controller could be modified in to a classic wii controller.

In theory it *might* be possible.  They share similar pinouts, if you look:

But there seems to be no "strobe" pin on the Wii controller attachment....I don't know what that means for your project, unfortunately.

It will not work,have a look at the classic controller pcb to see.

Also this should answer your question.

So it can be done it is just a lot of hard work. Hm will have to think about this.

1) learn the signal differences between controllers
2) make signal converter with some MCU or discrete chips
3)
4) profit

You're lucky just as it was done by somebody else. Use the source from http://gitorious.org/wii-retropad-adapter @ build yours

Don't be a lazy moron. Atmega chip costs below $5. I can't seen any hard work here

[P]

An Atmega programmer costs a bit more however.

Yes i will need to buy the chip , the programmer and learn how to program it.. I can learn how to do it but still. Oh and to buy a programmer just to program one or probably two chips is kinda useless i think. I will ask that guy on benheck's forum if he can program some chips for me.

[Pikkon]

Let me know if he has any extra,wouldn't mine doing this as well.

Those weren't sold, they were given out as a prize from Club Nintendo. 
I still have mine.  Actually, I have 2.

They were also available through club Nintendo of Europe.

With one of these the you can also program the D-pad to be the analog function instead of functioning as D-pad or set it to function as both analog and D-pad at the same time I'm not sure if its possable with the official Nintendo brand one but its really convenient  since there are decent amount of games that force analog use  I'm making a SFC wii controller as we speak well sorta its on the back burner
All you do is remove the chip in the SFC controller and solder wires in the place where the chip legs are then to the piiwee board . PC ribbon cables work great for this

Also the PCB is already small but I just chop it up smaller and I solder the chip directly to the board so its lays flatter

Oh! I bought mine at a seocnd hand book store, and thought they were sold.  awkward!

That's practically the only way to get them now. At thrift stores and used book/game stores.
Good find!
