this week my nephews and i are building metal pads ddrhomepad style but i wanna make a little control box too and use pushbuttons for X, O, START and SELECT.. so i found these here http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F010%5F007%5F001%5F000&product%5Fid=275%2D1556#

yep

I want to buy the same... I realized that I will use my pad on a playstation (curently using it on a PC) and I need some button because I dont have any joystick out of the pad (used a softpad control box).

I used standard arcade pushbuttons from Happ Controls, since I had a few leftovers, but any normally open pushbuttons from Radio Shack should work fine. Though they wouldn't be half as cool looking. ;-)
