From Clone Controller ( 6 buttons ) Sega Megadrive to selfmade leverless controller very Cheap!
I took a cheap 6-button controller from a clone mega drive and used its PCB in a self-built leverless controller using 24mm and 2 30mm arcade buttons. For the "case" I used a transparent box of chocolates from a well-known Italian brand.
The aesthetics need to be improved and I had to fix the broken plastic but the result is very good, in fact I can make GoldenAxe II work which usually crashed when starting the game with the original Sega controller
