New PCB to fix Pop'n Controller

[mightyjon-o]

The quality of the PCB inside my Pop'n Music controller has been diminishing for some time now and it finally has had its last stand. I've noticed that original PSX controllers that could be used to replace it have become less commonplace. Does anyone know of another way to replace the board or of a site where I could order a replacement one? Thanks for any help on the subject!

I'd suggest looking on ebay for google for any site selling 3rd party PSone controllers. They are by far the easiest to work with and only cost around 5$ depending on where you get them.

eBay Express: 2x Advanced Sony Playstation Controllers -PSX,PSOne NEW - Description

These are the type of controllers I decided to get. Hopefully they work out, could anyone who's built a controller before confirm this? Thanks!

I dislike reposting myself, nevertheless, it's better than wasting another thread. At any rate, I just got my psx controllers and it seems like replacing the board won't be too bad. My only question is about whether or not I can just pull the R and L buttons off it since I can solder to their points on the actual board. Thanks for any help.
