Hardware My newly bought GC controller has a problem

[ACCA919]

Its C-Stick is a bit offset to the upper right direction when neutral. Is there any way to fix this?
Sorry if this isn't the right category to ask the question.

ask for a refund and then purchase it again. its just a factory issue. they need to fix it for you by law

I was unware you were an international lawyer, able to with certainty tell him a controller he bought in a country he never even said which country he bought it from is from a seller/store obligated to honor such terms. Where did you get your law degree?

you dont need to be a lawyer to know that stuff. nintendo offers a warranty stating that the product will work correctly for a certain amount of time and if it doesnt, you can return it or ask for a refund and if its not from nintendo then its not my problem. this guy probably got a fake since he is in hong kong and CHINA is surrounding him. they make very similar copies of products.

Big oof on my side. Since it didn't have the logo, It probably is. If I want more GC controllers I should use Amazon for a better quality.

it IS indeed fake. you need to pay more attention into those details. on ebay they sell used gc controllers (original) and you can buy tools to clean it and restore it.

Wow these are expensive compared to the one I had (around $20). How much did they cost when the GC launched?

What is the name of the store

I didn't remember the store having a name. It was in a shopping arcade.
