If your NES controller's buttons are sticky or unresponsive, it's likely that the conductive silicone pads are worn out or dirty. The first step to restoring your console is to try cleaning the pads with a Q-tip dipped in isopropyl alcohol. If that doesn't work, consider swapping them out for a brand new replacement set.

A great replacement for the original pads

I was concerned that diagonal presses wouldn't be responsive, a common issue with aftermarket pads. But I'm happy to report that these pads do not have that issue. Diagonal presses work great, and the overall feel is snappy and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Good quality, timely shipping

The silicone pads arrived quickly and are in great condition. They worked on the first try.

Good except d-pad

I was very impressed with the quality of these pads upon first picking them up, as they appeared much better quality than aftermarket pads I've gotten before. However, after using them, I realized they suffer from the same issue as any non-OEM silicon pad: you cannot hit diagonals. Forget playing a game such as Contra where the diagonals are crucial to survival. I used the pads for the buttons and start/select, but ended up sticking with the OEM pad for the d-pad (because diagonals are crucial in 2d games).
