Hardware GCN Fixing/replacing gamecube analog sticks

[kbell917]

So there are these little tears in my controller now thanks to my little nephew and i’ve been worried about the analog stick ripping off if i keep using them. Is there a way to fix it without opening up the whole controller? Like just dabbing in some gorilla glue with some matching material or something? Or do I have to start looking for replacements and buy a tri-screwdriver?

you can use caps, its easy and cheap.

replace the hole plastic is not so easy as seems.

ended putting on all my controllers and even a machinery control.

Replace the thumb stick it's easy to do

kind of unrelated but

question for the OP, do you notice that the controllers have lost some of their "max" values on some games?
(like the n64 when it wears down where characters cant run anymore)
