What I meant was, if you have one of these NES/Famicom in a controller things, you usually have the main part, which is all of the electronics inside of something that resembles an N64 controller. Some people bought the deluxe set that includes an additional controller that resembles a genesis pad, but I mean the one that looks like the N64 controller. If you remove all the screws and open it up, basically what you'll have is a circuit board with copper contacts for where the buttons go, attached to a ribbon cable that goes to the cartridge slot. You can solder wires onto the main board just like you would with any regular pad hack. I assume you could do a hack on the extra controller as well, I just haven't bothered yet.

Just put everything into some other kind of box, and make a hole for the cartridge slot and a/v cables and such, and you can use your arcade controls on this. Anyway, no more questions until I post pictures.
