GBA buttons?

Post by Gunk » Sun Nov 29, 2009 10:17 pm

The buttons on an original GBA...can they be painted efficiently? I want them to be red, are there any other buttons from a system/controller that I can just pop in perhaps?

The buttons from an NES controller fit precisely. I think they feel better personally, and they are red. ;)

Oops, saw the word original, but overlooked the GBA part. There really is only one GBA. The SP and GBA don't get confused very often.
