If you have a SCART RGB tv, it's bloody easy. You can do it for as cheap as $30 (USD) in parts plus the price of a Neo Geo controller. Or even hack a a Saturn Pad.

If your tv accepts RGB inputs, yes. If not signal converters raises the price dramatically.

You will find a lot of information on building one if you follow this LINK!
