D-pad membranes

[hippy dave]

Hello,
Is the d-pad membrane for a Famicom controller the same as for the NES controller?
I saw listings on AliExpress that had sets of membranes for both varieties, the select/start piece is visibly different, but the d-pad one looks similar.

Even more specifically, would anyone happen to know if it would fit the Hudson bee controller HC 62-4? I think it looks like the membrane matches the official controllers, but I haven't opened them up to compare.

Whole story is that I bought the Hudson controller from eBay, it was sold as used but working, but honestly most of the controls were barely responding. I opened it up, cleaned everything, scraped residue from the contacts and removed a few layers of general grime. Unfortunately one of the directional bumps on the d-pad membrane had split, and it came off when I was cleaning it. I managed to squeeze it into position while reassembling and it's actually working great for now, but I probably need to find a new membrane before it starts moving around. As mentioned, AliExpress have both NES and Famicom flavours, but I could get a NES set from eBay much quicker if the NES d-pad membrane is the same.

Surprisingly, they all seem to be the same design. I've used the ones you can get now in the kits for all sorts of 3rd party controllers (I bought a large lot of broken ones) and they all fit fine.

As you noted, the start/select is a bit different, but easily modified. The buttons and DPAD membranes all seem identical.

That's brilliant, thank you
