Wired the controller, Then found out that the joystick is shot and I can't resolder another one to it, It also was supplied power from the Data line, which is retarded. So I have an official one on the way. Will start cutting some plasitc maybe?
Still no gamecube I did get a new dremel kit and soldering Iron for christmas though . Good thing too, My old one had some chips in the tip. Any idea on what that could be from? I know certain metals can corrode others when heated but I would think solder wouldn't do that.
