Actually it's prolly fine now to put back together.
Welp all back together. Time to plug her in.
It works. Seems just a tad still sticky though. They bounced back fine before I put the front face plate back on so I'll just slightly lube the top and that should be the end of it. There was a lot of grime way inside the controller under the buttons so that's good that I got it out.
Works though. Tested with Super Castlevania 4 weeeeeee.
