fcgamer | 4,723 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I got this in a bag of scraps from my buddy, yesterday, and I was gonna just toss it in the junk box (there were also some Famicom controllers I was tickled to get), but I figured I'd research it first, which led to more questions than answers. According to the plastic, model number is HSS-0101, all pics brought up with this Id show a black controller. The white controller has a slightly different part id number. Also no idea where the buttons went, and one can see the Sega name on the front. Ideas or thoughts on this controller? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid | 425 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 That was most likely cleaned off or scrapped off this controller looks like it was taken apart to be cleaned and never put back together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh_Lurv | 254 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 The controller could be a bootleg. IIRC, they were pretty common in the Japanese market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phart010 | 1,707 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Is this a Saturn plug or a usb plug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptOut | 8,883 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I think I can clear up some of the confusion here, seeing as I am the one who took the controller apart! Firstly, it is an official, standard, if highly worn Saturn controller I received with an old Japanese Saturn someone gave me. Secondly, I took both controllers that came with the system apart in order to clean them. However, this controller is faulty, some of the buttons simply do not work even after I cleaned it up. The other controller I got worked fine. Also, I have kept the buttons themselves as well as the contact pads for use as spares, but if you really want them @fcgamer then I'd be happy to pass those on to you also! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcgamer | 4,723 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 @OptOut thanks for the clarifications. Yup, I generally do the same with broken controllers and the like, saving the parts, got a whole box of parts. Don't need those buttons, I just want those N64 baggies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
