[freed_y]

i got my Gamecube joystick yesterday..

when i tried to play Dragon Ball Tenkaichi Budokai 2 using Gamecube joystick, it keep blocking and i can move when i plug the joystick in port 1 Gamecube joystick...

then i try in port 2 gamecube controller..
it works and have no problem....

so is there a problem in my Gamecube port/Gamecube Controller ???

can i change my port 2/3/4 gamecube become port 1 ???

You can always try the old fashioned blowing-in-the-hole technique. There might be dusts or something inside. Have you been messing with the port ?

If your going to blow in it I would use an air compressor or compressed air. If you blow with your mouth you can risk getting moisture in the port and cause oxidization.

hmmm... i don't try that technique yet

but i never opened the Gamecube port (until i gut my Gamecube con yesterday)..

am i the only one got this problem ???

Doing it once wouldn't be a problem. This isn't like blowing into the NES cartiges

If it were dust or something wouldnt just plugging in and pulling out a few times clear the dust

maby a loose connection somewhere ?

It won't plug in? See if your twisted the connector. That happened to my friend (his wavebird adapter twisted). Oddly enough, it worked when we twisted it back (I guess we just didn't break any connections).

it's plug into gamecube port1.. but for some reason it keep blocking (in Dragon Ball TB2 Wii games)...
but in port 2 Gamecube controller, it works normally..

if this problem still occurred , i'll ask here again
