Im attempting to put a psone controller in an altoids tin, and I already know it will fit I just need to know one thing. I want to use just one analog stick, and not the d pad. Can I just cut the main board in half so I just have the buttons, and then have the analog board connected as normal? Can I cut the analog board in half as well, and just keep one stick?

Sure! As long as you connect the traces from each side of the board. This seems like a cool idea actually. Good luck!

but not many psone games used the joystick i remember they always used the d-pad. i could be wrong

Turbo tax is right, many play station games won't accept the analog and require the D-pad. you would be outta luck for older psone games.

Good news. I found an old style psone controller with no analog sticks, so I wont have to worry about all the confusing analog stuff. The controller is going to be crazy small when its done. I hope to finish it by sunday.
