Connecting Arduino Nano to a mini usb host shield

Using Arduino Programming Questions

I was wondering if it's possible to connect an Arduino Nano to a mini USB host shield. I want to use this setup to connect the Arduino to a PS3 controller.

Thank you

Anything's possible. Some things are easier than others.

How would you go about doing that?
What pins need to be connected and do I need to make any changes to the host shield library?

Duct tape. The purple stuff works best.

Look at the schematic, and see for yourself.

I'm sure you'll know soon enough.

If you are going to rely on the work that others have done, why are you now using the hardware that they did the work on?
