gozar Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Today at The Ohio Retro Gamer convention I picked up the following 5200 controller: Apparently someone got sick of the crappiness of the buttons and replaced the keypad with micro switches, and while they were in there, they spread the four buttons out along the top perimeter of the controller. I need to clean up the joystick potentiometers, but the buttons all work. Has anyone seen anything like this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroLucky Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I know how they did it, but I wonder why they didn't get a number pad on there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeguychicago Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I think Willie from ArcadeUSA did something like this. He loves them microswitches! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
