does anyone have a list of the misc pieces that the NES Advantage Statue of Liberty controller uses? ive got 2 of the controllers, but i have no idea about what else is involved.
Here is the best one I’ve seen to date:

Read the description for some part details, or just contact the member directly. Hope it helps.

I’ve been thinking about building one of those since my local comic shop has a ton of NES Advantages for only $6.00
Hi there,
I’m working on one of these as we speak, maybe I can try and help.
I by no means am an electronics expert; fortunately I have a friend in school for that. With his help and the help of an electronics part catalog we were able to come up with a list of parts (or similar looking parts) used on the NES Advantage controller (with both movie captures and gbfreak2021’s photos as reference).
Breadboard (cut in half as gbfreak2021 mentioned)
Ribbon Cable (14 wire: Brown-Red-Orange-Yellow-Green-Blue-Violet-Grey-White-Black-Brown-Red-Orange-Yellow)
PC Board (PC Dual Mini Board-- gbfreak look like he’s cropped his)
Commercial Card Edge Connector (looks like 10 position)
The black things are some sort of integrated circuit
Ceramic Resistors
The cables are jumpers
Ceramic Resistors (grey)
Electrolytic Capacitor
Mosfet (or transistor in similar casing)
Capacitor (crossover)
LED lights
May not be exactly what gbfreak used, but it’s similar.
Good luck.
I managed to pick up an Advantage for dirt cheap on ebay, and have been considering somehow building the prop so that it can be used as a remote control (my original plan was to build a Mindstorms Staypuft, but it looks as if the bot skeleton might not be large enough to keep it in scale with my lego GBs). I don’t know a lot about electronics; does anyone have an idea how I might go about pulling this off?
