Sneak peek of things to come really soon

Ah, so you found the secret room, eh? Bask in the glory of a Mario Trilogy, a Pair of Zeldas and a Sextet of Megamans. Yes this is the little grey box that could and continues to do. What lies ahead is entirely up to you. YOU DECIDE

My junky NES MAX controller is my prototype test bed. This is just a taste, of things to come. It is a really good fit and it looks good.


My Max does not do this new D-Pad justice. But it looks really good.

Bryan does fantastic work and was super helpful to me. The mod works fantastic and looks pretty good. I was able to send in my controller ring and have him do the excellent mod work. It was super clean and precise. Awesome work by an awesome dude.

You can check out a couple of pics of the finished product below.




Thanks again Bryan!

A new challenger appears!!



Its the BPS MAX, just like the power pad the NES Max was a third party controller for the Famicom, the B and A are not concave and they feel more responsive compared to the NES MAX. Update to follow...

It looks like NES Max controllers are going pretty cheap on ebay. I may buy another just to mod.
