I thought about your post and reread it and I think your asking about putting a female DB9 in the controller housing.

I think it would be a lot of work, and even if you did a fantastic job on the jack install it would still look like crap, because of the fact it was broken.

Your best bet is a y-cord male that plugs into the coleco and 2 females on the other end... You can plug a controller in 1 and the broken controller to use as keypad in the other.
