Modding a Cheap SNES Gamepad for Neo Geo/Supergun

My Neogeo controller wasn’t working and the fix for it involved some PCB surgery that I had no idea how to perform. While looking for alternatives, I saw that some people were able to mod a SNES pad to work on a NeoGeo. It looked like something I could do so I go through the process of getting that set up.

This is the gamepad I modded. I strongly DO NOT recommend it. It does not work well at all. I’m only displaying it here so you can rule it out if you’re looking to do a similar project.
