Neo Geo CD Controller directional fix

[speedyink]

Some years ago I made this video on how to fix a Neo Geo CD controller with bad directional stick. Please forgive its shitty-ness, but it should get the point across.




You can use iso alcohol and stuff to clean up the contacts as well. I used basically nothing to show just how simple it is to fix one of these.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't realize how low tech those directional switches actually were.

Good info that may be useful to me as I have a pair of Neo Geo CD controllers I plan to use with some MV1C boards I have laying around.

This is one reason why I really want a dpad controller for NeoGeo.

I think the clicky stick when working properly is pretty solid, especially for fighting games.
