I just got into N64 emulation and was pining for an Adaptoid. Then I read this at Wikipedia:
"An adaptoid is just a simple cable with a Nintendo 64 socket on one end, and a USB plug on the other end, which means no circuitry is involved, and provides for easier use."

Could this possibly be true? If it's just a cable, then wouldn't it be very possible to build your own using an N64 extension cable and a USB cable? If it's just a cable, then all the smarts are in the Adaptoid driver, which can still be downloaded.
Is it possible all we need is for one kind soul to crack open their Adaptoid and document the wiring? Would there be any such kind souls among us?
