Is that a mockup or did you actually make that already?

I like the first design more, but this is pretty sleek.

This is the actual plastic cover I'll be using. Most of the controller pieces will be directly from the yobo controller.

So how do you get the design onto the plastic? Is it just a printed decal slapped onto the plastic at the end, or is it like, silkscreened on? Sorry if you keep getting asked this, but it is pretty durn slick.

I take sitcker paper, and laminate it to give it a shine and protection. Then I just cut it out and stick it to the plastic.

If you've ever seen the yobo controller, the D-pad is a raised circle. It's actually quite comfy! I can tell he's using the Yobo controller because of the slow button hole and the space for the controller LED.

i found that the 'raised circle' controllers are very unaccurate.. (at least the ones for pc and psx by cheap third part companies.. are these ones better?

the yobo controller works fine.
