Step 4Discovering the Apple Remote
Now, we are going to work on the Apple Remote. We need to remove the guts from the plastic.
Unfortunately, I don't have pictures yet of the disassembly of the remote (I'm going to post them later). It's not that hard, it's just a pain in the ***. But, I'll try to describe the disassembly the best I can.
First, you'll need to remove the battery and the white caddy by pressing the button with a pencil or a small screwdriver at the bottom of the remote. Using a reallllly small screwdriver, you'll have to remove the visible screw. It's hard to unscrew, so be patient. After removing the visible screw, you need to remove the other, which is under the little gray cap. To remove the gray cap, use a small screwdriver and press the edge of it. There is a spring under, so, be careful.
After removing the cap & spring, you can see the screw. This screw is also hard to unscrew, so, be patient and take your time. After removing the screw, you can slide the remote by holding the black part on top; it should slide out pretty easily.
Next, you'll need to unscrew the 4 last screws. After that, you'll be ready to modify the Apple Remote so it can fit the NES controller.
