- The SNES Macropad is, as it sounds, a macropad that features a SNES connector. In addition it has a qwiic connector and a 3.5mm jack for 3.3V I2C (not audio), allowing additional expansion.
- This QMK implementation exposes the SNES controller as a part of the keyboard, meaning you can map the controller to do anything a qmk keyboard can. The layout is thus a 4x6 keyboard logically, split with the 3 first rows being on the macro pad and the 3 following being buttons on the snes controller.
- * Keyboard Maintainer: [JBarberU](https://github.com/jbarberu)
- * Hardware Supported: SNES Macropad Rev 1, with a Raspberry Pi Pico Lite (AliExpress clone of Raspberry Pico with fewer grounds and all GPIO's exposed on the headers)
- * Hardware Availability: The SNES Macro pad can be found [here](https://www.tindie.com/products/jbarberu/snes-macropad/) either as a kit, partially built or fully built.
- Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
- make snes_macropad:default
- Flashing example for this keyboard:
- make snes_macropad:default:flash

- ## Bootloader
- Enter the bootloader in 3 ways:
- * **Physical bootsel button**: Hold down the bootsel button on the RPi Pico while plugging in the keyboard, or while pressing the reset button
- * **Physical reset button**: Quickly double press the reset button
- * **Keycode in layout**: Press the key mapped to `QK_BOOT` if it is available
