HELLO amazing helpful Lemmitors (Lemmians… Lemurs. Whatever). I hope I can explain this clearly. I desire a pair (2) of PlayStation 2 controllers which work wirelessly via the SAME wireless dongle stuck into BOTH PS2 controller ports at the same time. This allows me to turn one off while my friend on the other side of the room turns theirs on in order to switch who’s controlling player 1 for taking turns in single player games without having to throw one controller back and forth across the room. You may laugh but I have managed to find and purchase a controller that does exactly this off eBay, which is a ProGamer (brand) PS2 wireless 2-controller set with a single dongle that splits into 2 wires and plugs into both controller ports simultaneously and does exactly what I described. The problem is one of the controllers has a faulty analog stick that doesn’t activate when going left, and I can’t find this brand or this type of controller or anything like it to replace this set up. If you have any thoughts or solutions I would much appreciate it. Thank you 💚
And I should note that I’m unconcerned about the quality of the controller since my main requirement is for it to simply function properly and work in the ways I described. Thanks
You might look into repairing the joystick you have. I recently had a similar issue with my 360 controller after it sitting in storage for many years and a good contact cleaning got it working again.
If that doesn’t work, depending on your level of confidence, you could measure the pin pitch and note termination style and see if you can find a replacement joystick module to solder in somewhere. Maybe it used the same footprint as another controller, and you can drop it in and have it work.
Either way, good luck. I hope you succeed!
