Build

A port of https://github.com/Ryzee119/ogx360.git, a project to use modern USB game controllers on the original Xbox console to the Teensy4.1.

This has a new USB Host Stack, USB Device Stack and significantly more processing power which opens up alot more possibilities.

Finally, hardly any soldering is required.

Currently can emulate

  • Duke Standard Controller
  • Official Xbox Memory Unit (XMU)
  • Steel Battalion Controller
  • DVD Movie Playback IR Dongle

Needed Parts

Qty Part Description Link
1 Teensy 4.1 https://www.pjrc.com/store/teensy41.html
1 USB Host Cable https://www.pjrc.com/store/cable_usb_host_t36.html
1 0.1" Pin Header https://www.pjrc.com/store/header_24x1.html
1 SD Card For XMU emulation. Clean format FAT32. I had to use this https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/ on my old SD cards
1 Xbox to MicroUSB ChimericSystems or Alibaba (Large MOQ!) or DIY

Duke Controller Emulation: Supported Controllers

  • Bluetooth 8bitdo/compatible controllers via the 8BitDo Wireless USB Adapter or Rev 2.
  • Wired 8bitdo controllers when they are started in X-input mode.
  • Xbox S/X Wired
  • Xbox One Wired (Genuine / PDP)
  • Xbox 360 Wired
  • Xbox 360 Wireless (Via PC USB Receiver)
  • PS4 Wired

Xbox Memory Unit Emulation (XMU): Supported Memory Interfaces

  • 256kB RAM disk for testing only.
  • SD Card installed into the Teensy4.1 SD Card slot.

Steel Battalion Controller Emulation: Supported Interfaces

  • Keyboard and Mouse See this file for mapping. Please improve!

DVD Playback IR Dongle

  • To play DVDs on a Xbox console, place a file called dvd_rom.bin at the root of a FAT32 formatted SD card then insert it into the Teensy before power up. dvd_rom.bin must be dumped from a genuine IR dongle.
  • Input is not yet fully implemented. Currently only Duke and Xbox360 D-Pad is mapped to the IR remote dpad for testing. This is very simple to fix though if needed.
