He was having problems with the power from the pad.  TingBoy has the LEDs powered by batteries.  I am going to take it a step further and figure out how to get all the power from the pad. ;)

For some reason, it seems the only way to use a d-pad for movement in SSB Brawl is the wii-mote... even the classic controller d-pad can't be mapped for movement, at least this is what I've read so far from numerous sources, the d-pad is defaulted to "taunt" and you can switch it to other things but not movement.  If thats true I guess the only way to use a stick or hacked classic controller is if you could somehow wire the analog r/l/u/d directions to a joystick.

I checked on Nintendo's website for SSB Brawl and they list the classic controller and GameCube controller as compatible.  If that is the case then hacking the classic controller will be the ticket.

** edit:  It may not be that easy.  Here is some more information on how the game plays on each of the controllers.  Still looks like you use the thumb sticks to move.

I was excited to show another stick today but I may not finish it just yet, should take my time with it anyways. It may seem like I'm churning these out quickly hehe but I cut all the hardwood back in the fall, just stained and clear coated recently and such. Here are the buttons though. If one can figure out the Mandarin letters you'll know who's on this stick :)

Finished! Xbox 360 controller with Chun Li theme. Curly maple dyed sapphire blue with polycrylic clear coat and Ultimarc's Ultralux buttons w/ Groovy Game Gear's MicroLeafs w/ MameMarquees marquee material cut for the button discs. Works real nice the marquee material illuminates just fine in the clear buttons, the buttons are a bit brighter than the pic, but I switched my camera's setting to nighttime to get more detail. When I got an arcade marquee printed from Mamemarquees I put some of these button discs in the extra space and cut them out to fit the buttons. I tried to make them look like Chinese lanterns and coordinated the colors of the 360 buttons in the lantern graphics. I made the button designs sort of transparent too so they seem like they are printed on rice paper. The Mandarin letters are Chun (spring) Li (beautiful)

Thanks to HarumaN once again for the hack, he also hacked the rumble motors for this one. I took two mini-sd card holders and drilled a 3/8 hole in each of them. Then placed two white superbright leds in each hole, hooked them to the rumble motor wires and screwed down the sd card holders. Didn't use a resistors for these rumble leds as I think it's somewhere around 2 volts they're getting when activated. Used translucent blue plexi for the back. Took out the JLF's pcb and used cherry microswitches instead since no common ground.
