Hi SRK members. I would like to start off thanking the community for the help I've got from all the tutorials and guides that can be found on SRK forum.
I would like to thank Toodles help, rtdzign's tutorials, info from one of Phreakazoid187 post and TRNG padhacking thread.
I would like to thank purplearms for his ArcEye 2s
I would like to thank Art Hong for his great plexi and custom art cut outs.
These are some of the tutorials and threads I got info from

This is my first custom built arcade stick that will be multi-console. It's still under construction as I still haven't have my box finished yet but the internals been put together and tested.
NOTE: UDATE the MC Cthulhu firmware before soldering the Imp v2 to it or you'll have problems!
Wiring diagram hope this helps a bit (corrected)

Let's start with the PCBs. Here I've got the MC Cthulhu and Imp v2
![ad319e4f-e281-d138.jpg]()
I've soldered the RJ45 pin connector to the Imp v2

For those who dont want to solder a RJ45 pin connector this is a diagram of the board for direct wire solder. I borrowed the pic of the Imp v2 from LizardLicks photo since I dont have one without the pin connector and photoshopped each spot.

Here I soldered the wires on the underside of the MC Cthulhu row 1 G,A,B,C,D,E,F,V and one wire to the 2nd row V

![ad319e4f-e3e2-9859.jpg]()
I then soldered the corresponding wires to the Imp v2
![ad319e4f-e43b-afdc.jpg]()
I've also soldered a wire to the VCC point on the Imp v2 and connected the other end to the VCC screw terminal on the MC Cthulhu

![ad319e4f-e4cb-2c2d.jpg]()
Then I prepped the Madcatz Xbox 360 PCB that I took out of a Brawl pad.
I cut the USB cable at a decent length so I could just use the wires off that to solder instead of soldering new wires.

Now soldering the xbox PCB to the MC Cthulhu. I soldered all the corresponding wires to row A-H and 1-9.

![ad319e4f-e672-e83a.jpg]()
I've put everything together to test out if everything is working and it's working on PC/360/PS3 so far with no problems. I haven't made the other cables yet.
![ad319e4f-e6ea-86d6.jpg]()
I promise it won't look so messy like that once it's in the box lol.

Hot glued the 360 PCB wires
