Well for some time my sister has been wanting to obtain a NES controller coin purse, we tried a few years ago to mod one without success due to lack of tools and I got thinking the other week, Well It’s her birthday next week and she’s coming to town to visit, I’ll see what I can whip up, And here we have it, my first mod.
I have seen only one of these done on the internet, and I’m sure with a quick google search you can find it, And that thing is an abomination.
Process (sorry, Was too into it, no pictures)
Opened, gutted and cleaned controller
Removed all pegs and support pieces from the insides via wire cutters, lighter + razor blade and other crude methods
Glued a purple felt lining on back piece and same on front but cut holes for the buttons
Glued in buttons
Glued on 2 hinges
(not in final picture, but has been done)
Glued on a clasp on the front
I don’t know why it posted as guest the first time, but ill try again
Was all very simple, But it’s something I haven’t seen done well, And it has so many uses.
It can hold coins
Washers
Metal slugs shaped like coins
Circles of sheet metal, The probabilities are endless
