Can you upload an .STL file? @neolith

UPDATE: Nevermind! I was able to open the .STEP file with Fusion360 on my laptop.

Done. I updated the .RAR file and the download link in the other post.

I know someone who makes Gameboy with the sticks from neo geo pockets. Similar idea. He doesn't make a bezel though, he just cuts the hole and it looks pretty nice

it isnt actually analog, its a 4 way tactile setup. There are 4 buttons in there that actuate when you move the stick. I believe he pulls them from the neo geo pocket or something similar

Erik_gee is right. The D-pad from neogeo pocket and neogeo x is a 4 way tactile device. It’s acting like the cherry microswitches found in real arcade
