Just perfect. IMHO, those cherry switches are the greatest arcade parts ever thought.

Put some wood putty on there to hide the screw and paint the knob red.

Your better off making a few to sell. Then use that money to maybe get a NES.

You do realize that FB2 controllers are actually 2600 controllers. So all you need to do is get some 2600 controllers and your all set.

Wrong. Actually 2600 controllers are completely different in feel and internal design.

Oh and Awesome mod!

fb 2 controllers have a bolt for a joystick, and the 2600 are this odd rubber and white thing.

Nice job, very nice mod. I have a FS2 in my basement, I'll check and see if there are two controllers, if so I'll let you know and send one out.

Just one thing, you might want to rename it "Red Rocket" with that red knob.... I'm sorry I couldn't help myself.
