Yeah I am using that site for reference on my arcade stick for NES/SNES.
I did the controller but for some reason, a few controls felt laggy. I didn't know if it was the clone NES hiccuping on the latch and data through the cycles or if it was hardware.
The controller/IC chip/board I used for this test was crappy and the cord was bent up. Once I receive my lot of controllers, NES systems and extension cords I should be able to wire up a better setup.
Right now I am just using this site for reference:

And now trying to figure out a solid layout so I can mark and drill the holes, probably going to use some cheap compressed shelving wood from Home Depot for this one.

If you are using that circuit with a real NES I recommend you try using the CD4021 chip instead. They're equivalents but the CD4021 is a CMOS technology chip and the electrical characteristics are slightly different even though they work identically logic wise.
That result on speed differences and it could be the cause for the sluggish response to button presses.
Some useful information from how the console see the controller can be found here:

Edit: and since I paged here's a picture of a SNES sound module modified to work on a PC printer port:
A program was used to upload .SPC files to it.
