S.H.A.D.O.W controller

Ok so its beena long while since my last update.  After a lot of attempt to get PS2 controller to  work, I finally gave up and migrated to what is called the .S.H.A.D.O.W (or just Shadow) controller setup.  I've seen others use this with a long range in crowds and I just could never get my PS2 controller to stay connected to the Arduino.  The Shaow setup is easy and I just needed the $10 controller, a $50 Arduino Mega ADK and the $16 bluetooth USB dongle and BAM, its up and running with little problems.  I did have to go back and re-add all my sounds onto my card one at a time instead of bulk loading them like I used to.  Now all my sounds work perfectly.  Yay!

Ordered the rest of the sound system which should alll arrive in the next few weeks.  Speaker, amp, bits and pieces.
