![]() ![]() I bought PS2 to USB adapter and problem is that it only reads A type of Controller, none of my H Controllers do nothing when i press buttons (with or without analog on). I have carefully read all reply on this topic and i think someone can help me with my problem. I have 3 PS2 Controllers labeled H and one with latter A. I can always take them parts (shells and buttons) from a Revision 1 and put them on a revision 3,4,5 if it turns out that latter revisions had better PCBs than revision 1.ĭarkoSM wrote:I know it was a decade before anyone posted a question but i have i big problem with this manufacture differences. I know that the parts and polymer used for revision 2 and onward was cheaper than the launch ones, however what about the PCB though? The launch PCBs seems kinda messy and not ass efficient compared to the PCBs from revisions 3 and onward. Though someone corrects the user and mention that the H stands for Hosiden rather than Hori:Īnyway, based on your knowledge in the field of electrical engineering, which would you say has the superior board? Well the exact same user that made this post in 2016, said that H stands for HORI here in 2011 here:Īnd another user say that H stands for Hori: I am assuming this is based on this post: I can see why someone would assume it's Hori though given there track record with making controllers. Now look here, this is the Dualshock 2 manufactured by "H" Made in China ("H" stands for HORI, HORI Dualshock 2 have 8 pins of the connectors compared to 9 from the ALPS connectors, more info on the company here: ):Īnd here is a Duslshock 2 manufactured by "M" Made in China ("M" stands for MITSUMI and Dualshock 1 and 2 made by this company are pretty rare, I never had one myself, only got A's and H's, more info on the company here: ):Īustin532 wrote:I'm pretty sure the H stands for Hosiden.

I have no idea, this is why I started this thread, I mean there is 5 (possibly 6) "revisions" of the Dualshock 2, going from 2000 till the end of 2012 and well I have no idea what these revisions are for ("stability"?) I mean look here: Overall the most "high quality" polymer from what I seen so far seem to be the one used for the 2000 Made in Korea Dualshock 2 models, you can feel the plastic is really sturdy and it tends to not have the "sticky sweat" feel that you would for example get when using a Dualshock 3 A2 revision (the latest revision of the DS3 with the lower quality polymer), you can even tell the difference by looking at the plastic, the regular made in china black DS2 (from 2001? and onward) are just black and not particulary shiny, while the made in korea models from 2000 are quite shinier in comparison (kind of like anthracite) and are not pure black-black as they have some kind of tiny white/silverish flakes mixed in it.Īustin532 I'm not an electrical engineer so if you could tell me all of the big differences and why they did it I would appreciate it. ![]() Also the D-Pad is slightly taller and sticks out of the controller a little bit more. The d-pad tend to make an annoying click sound everytime you rotate it 360 with Revision 2.
