Man there's so much wrong with that. First deciding that a silkscreened micro must be an ASIC. Then he decides that the data isn't signed because the NES CPU has no decimal mode. WTF? BCD was removed to avoid patents, not because it's complex, and twos-complement signed binary is simpler than BCD mode anyway. He completely fails to recognise that he's got signed bytes and says "255 is centre", when 255 is -1 in twos complement - it's centre zero as you'd expect. Finally, why make it work like a relative position mouse? Making it an absolute position input like a lightgun would make far more sense and be far easier to use.
