bah? Having only had my Gamecube for less than 2 months it has developed a fault!!! the fault being that the controller port is dodgy in that the controller is stuck fast inside it and just wont come out, worst still it's an official controller! I have no idea why this has happened as I have allways taken the upmost of care with my GC (like i do with all consoles) and I have never forced the controller in or out ever, I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if so do you have a solution? cos the only solution I can come up with right now is to return my cube to Game tommorow and get a replacement, *sigh* my bday tommorow as well, sods law is'nt it?

It's true, what reason do you have to pull the controller cables out anyway?

There's nothing else you can put in those sockets other than controllers.....well nothing else you're supposed to......ewwwwww nasty mental picture i'm off to throw up.

Erm... return GameCube to shop and get new one.

Loads of people complain that the game 'freezes' and'hangs' during play. These people didn't read the GameCube manual... make sure the game is atually clicked into position inside the Gamecube...(obviously don't use force).

Controller port problems.. never had that. :-(
