looking for something

[Tri-edge]

I'm looking for a tilt sensor part (or parts) that allows me to tilt a controller/psp/ds lite/whatever in the up, down, left, and right directions and actually move your character in that direction. 

I need to be able to hook it up to a button on that system/controller.

any help?

https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=27021.0 I think this talismoon product will do the trick depending on what you are doing.  It is analog I believe so it may be a bit harder to use on a digital input, but you never really know.  Order the schiznit up and I will help you figure out what you need to do

I was hoping for something either cheaper or smaller.  That's a little too big for me.

hmm ill try find the one cyber used to use he removed a lot of the unnecassery parts and made it tiny.

if that doesn't work order some ball switches, the kind in a small glass valve with a rolling ball that closes the circuit.

hahaha AUSTRALIA FTW!!!!!

All you other countries had to do was encase the original glass bulb in plastic covers similar to what they use on some reed switches now, and use insulated wire and they'd still be legal.

and look me, im still *twitch* completely *twitch* fine *PUNCHES A HOLE IN WALL*
