I bought my Philips CD-i 220 with several softwares, movies and a gamepad.
Unfortunately, the gamepad is out of order.
I check the cable and I find that two wires are cut somewhere.
There is only 4 wires for 8 pins and the connected pins are 7,8,5 & 2
The wire are Brown, Black, Red & Orange
Could some tell me the wire connect to each pin ?
Thanks
I am pretty sure this Touchpad have wires broken right near the entry of it. It is most due to the way people use to wrap the cord.
I will try to post this weekend a repair of the Gamepad, it is mostly the same wires connections, including pictures.
by the way, do you know where I could find a CD-i controller connector ?

I am not sure about the classic 8 pin mini-DIN compatibility.
The ones from your link aren't the good ones.
You need this one:

Touchpad connector pins are (from top):
- GND - 5
- RXD - 2
- RTS - 7
- +5V - 8
