Simple adapter that transforms a NeoGeo controller into a USB controller.
NeoGeo controller pinout
NeoGeo controller connector is a DB15. NeoGeo controller only has four (4) buttons (A, B, C, D). The D button is connected to pins 9 and 4, but the console only cheks for pin 4. Pins 10 and 2 are not connected.
Some superguns uses a DB15 for the controller with a compatible pinout. These superguns are using the non-connected pins to support games with more than four buttons, like capcom games using the kick-harness.

Questions
How big is the NeoGeoController2USB PCB?
It measures 40 × 55.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the NeoGeoController2USB use?
17 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U2-AU and DB15. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the NeoGeoController2USB KiCad files?
From the letoine/NeoGeoControllerToUSB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/NeoGeoController2USB.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the NeoGeoController2USB design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
