SUPER NINTENDO CONTROLER BELT BUCKLE WITH SOUND

long story short a friend i know through shadow casting rocky horror and repo the genetic opera at a theater i volunteer at, mentioned getting an snes belt buckle for her husband. I volunteered myself to make it for her and suggested adding a lil sound / recorder to it for the hell of it instead of just gutting the controller.

so this is my instructable on how i went about doing this and i must say it was pretty easy and cheap, but before going any further i must say DO NOT DESTROY ANY WORKING OFFICIAL OR OLD THIRD PARTY CONTROLLER, ONLY USE DEAD CONTROLLERS OR NEWER REPRODUCTIONS/ BOOTLEGS. the controller i used was both broken and a knock off so i had no problems ripping into it.

Step 1: Gather your materials

you'll need the following

1 nonworking snes controller or working/dead reproduction controller

some sort of sound playback unit, i grabbed mine from a balloon that let you record a message but you can use w/e you think will fit

1 belt buckle thats is slightly smaller than the controller and flat, if it's slightly bigger make sure you can cut or grind it to size.

headphone port (optional if you want to record line in instead of through the microphone)
