Are you planning to use some specific buttons/switches?
All the digital buttons are wired directly to GPIO pins on the Pi CM3 (or Zero). There aren't any resistors or anything like that in-between. Furthermore, you can use any GPIO you want. You would just edit the /etc/modprobe.d/mk_arcade_joystick.conf file accordingly.
You could leave the current DPAD alone and wire up 4 tac switches deadbug style with wires running to open GPIO. The "v1.3" board has some open GPIO, but they're a bit small. If you're not using an add-on board, you could easily use GPIO 40-45 that are between the USB socket and the ABXY button area.
After investigating, I don't see a safe way to drill holes in the dpad area.
