Hmm, all righty then. I figured getting the silkscreened stuff off so there was somewhere to solder without destroying the trace would have been more difficult.

jeez you guys should mod a bunch of these and start selling them as GameCube Mega Man controllers. That's awesome. Maybe paint them blue.

The trace for the original GC controllers are rather thick compare to other controllers.

Not sure if there is a big demand for them, but if any wants one modded I will do it for $5 + return shipping [$8 if you want a switch]
PSone, Xbox, PS2, DC, SS Mod Service, PM for details
