Solder bridge when creating SaturnControllerUSB? #32

Closed infrachris closed 9 months ago

infrachris commented 9 months ago

Thank you for this great project. Question: Most of the projects (SNES, NES, Sega) indicate the solder bridge needs to be done. However this is not mentioned at all with the SaturnControllerUSB. The SaturnControllerUSB instructions are also much more sparse and lack the images that the other projects contain (images which re-iterate the solder bridge).

Could it be clarified wether the solder bridge is required for the SaturnControllerUSB?

Thank you!

I researched and Saturn controllers require 5v, and the solder bridge creates a short such that the voltage output will be 5v. So the solder bridge should be done on the Saturn Controller implementation.
