Sega Naomi controlled with Wii Remote

A while ago I got a Sega Naomi, however being a student couldn’t afford to fork out for an IO board and all the controls.

I instead opted to write my own JVS Emulator in python which uses a wire that can be made for around £8.00.

The library is written in Python and the idea is that you could run it on a raspberry pi and use it to do a range of things e.g:

Convert digital IO signals to analogue signals to play driving games using a joystick
Convert gun IO signals for games that use them in a different way
Use a Wii remote to play light gun games
Use a game console controller to play games
The list goes on...

Here’s a video of it in action: https://youtu.be/T5MW_Vc_1I0

You can see I’m playing The Maze of The Kings with a Wii remote on my projector. I apologise about the poor video skills, holding the camera and playing was difficult!!!

Unfortunately I don’t have lots of time to work on it in the next few months, but based on how much interest I get I’ll hopefully soon make the code public and write a guide on how you can use it yourself!

This looks ace! Tried to do something similar with the model 2 emj for Virtua Cop and Wiimote but was hit and miss, much like the pre-existing Pie scripts for Piemote.

very cool!

.. please do make the code public; even if you dont get the chance to 'finish it' because of your exams/life whatever, other people will be able to run with it

Is the JVS I/O code public?
