My little adventure fixing a Game Cube controller...

I had a GC controller with a problem in the analogic and wanted to test he analog before relacing.... I've made a thread asking for help...(It can be deleted now btw... why I can't do it since it have no replies? )

Well I actually went there to try and test chaging the analog with an old spare C I had here and see what could happen.

But, opening the damaged one, I noticed the analogs are a bit different, so I couldn't replace

The newer controller have screws to hold the analog piece, the old is soldered on the board, its for both analogs ...

So, let's just remove the bad one for now and then look for a new one...

See ? The board is cracked, first time I opened this it I haven't removed the black plastic, so I don't saw this crack there
This must be a defect, let's try to repair them!

There it is! trails all connected again! Don't mind my bad soldering skills...
And better yet, everything working like new now!
This controller was sited with me a time because I haven't much courage to try replacing, but I had some spare time and tools at works so I tried to get info here, got nothing but still wanted to utilize the free time I got there, and everything is under control now! :yayone:
Thanks for following me in this adventure xD

    LOL! I'd lmao if they put a gay ride in the little arcade section they have in this walmart. It could be like the horses rides you put quarters in, except it would be like the ambiguously gay duo cartoon & you sit on top of the other guy thats in a "flying" position. LMAO!

    So I drive the 30 miles there, spend $100-$150 on groceries, and drive back home. Still saved $$$ after gas over shopping locally.

    You'd think you could make deals with local farmers
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:

    It makes the trip even more worth it if I'm out of my medication and need to stop by the medical dispensary. I try to line the two up to avoid extra trips.

    @AncientBoi, Except the town is pretty MAGA infested. People still flying TRUMP 2016 flags all over. They didnt get the memo the year changed since then. lol.

    They passed a city ordinance last month. No smoking cannabis in public. Not even eating gummies. $300 fine and misdemeanor charge if caught. People can walk down the street smoking cigs and tossing the butts all over, but God forbit someone take a couple puffs of their medication.

    First off, it's recreationally legal here. Secondly, I have a prescription from my doctor and approved by the state. But still a fucking criminal.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Like at bars. Cant sit outside even in the smoking section and take a few puffs. Yet I have to breath the cig smoke from 20 people chain smoking all night in every direction around me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Honestly I feel like Trump is going to crush Biden just because of the trial
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    They cite
    public health and safety concerns" LMAO!!! Yet they do nothing about the poison drinking water quality.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The look at how they treated me card is powerful within dumb voters
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    A Trump win is certainly a possibility. If he's reelected, 4 more years then no one has to worry about him being president ever again. I survived last time, I'll survive it if there's a next time. Don't know how anyone could vote for the guy, but I'm also not anyone else but me.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Honestly things were cheaper with Trump but that's tounge and cheek could be exactly the same outcome if he won reelection
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    All of the fake "Christians" vote for him even though he's broken like 8 of the 10 commandments... that we know of. Maybe all 10. LOL

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    A president is just a public figure within America

    I like when he says stuff like "They are preventing me from talking!!!" Wait. What? You mean the person that is literally talking right now.. is being prevented from talking? LOL! Gag order also does not apply to taking the stand. He's free to say whatever he'd like. lolol
