I just got a NES at a garage sale and it works pretty well, but the controllers get really uncomfortable after playing for a while, so I've decided to make my own. If I screw up I can spend $7 on a dog bone controller on Ebay, but where's the fun in that?

I've seen a lot of NES to PC tutorials, but ...

It's not that it's too large, but look at that D-Pad, especially compared to a Genesis or Saturn D-Pad. Or a SNES D-Pad. I have no idea why they didn't stick with that one. The button layout looks really weird too since all the buttons are on the top corners. I'm not sure what size the face buttons ...

If I just wanted the GBP with backlight I'd get a Game Boy Light. Much less work, eh? Anyway, could you show me some pictures or videos of the one you did? I might just end up getting another GBA. It wouldn't be nearly as cool, but it would ...

My GBA SP backlight died on me a while back. I've mostly left it alone since I can just play the games on my PSP, but I was considering getting a Game Boy Pocket for the coolness factor. Some of those old GB games look really good, too.

Anyway, I was thinking the Game Boy Pocket would be a lot ...
