"Prototype" Analog stick idea

[GoodTofuFriday]

Just looking for some input on the idea below. Basically a combo d-pad analog stick. Feel wise it works pretty nice.

To clarify, the d-pad still exist below it. If you push down itll still work like the d,g d-pad. All ive done is replace the d-pad plastic with the 3ds circle pad.




The rubber from the dmg is a little tall for this, but the psp rubber for the dpad works well and should work better with AIO boards.

Its a cool idea. I was considering replacing the d pad alrogether with a joystick after seeing a video on youtube but after recieving my psp joysticks they didnt feel right.

This is a great idea, but tricky to pull off in a way pleasing to the eye... I had given some thought to buying a second case and butchering it up so the surface could be used in place of the old cross cut directional space. The problem is one of patience and skill. How do you plastic-weld in a piece of foreign plastic and make it look seamless? Use a different color and replace the entire control area?

I prefer a stick to directional, so I am going to think on this some more myself...
