For the second time in he last few months, one of my official controllers has balls up. I've had no problems with my Cube since I got it at launch, and all of sudden both of my controllers go all rubbish.

Not a huge problem, just the D-pad seems to be stuck slightly going in one direction all the time. Seems a bit weird, seeing as I never use the D-pad, and exactly the same thing's happened on both controllers. It's very annoying when trying to aim on Resi, though, so I'll have to buy a new one.

I have so little money. :(

Oh, well I wouldn't know if he was banned or not, would I?

Weird...

All of my N64 controllers gradually wore out.
Perhaps it was because I have two younger brothers.
Or it might be that we had Mario Party for a while with those "rotate the analogue stick" games which inevitably ground the plastic down.

Infact, the one surviving controller with NO defects is the one I bought AFTER we gave Mario Party back.

Interesting, that...

Or some idiot has managed to get a big piece of pastry from their sausage roll lodged down the side of the analogue.

What the blue hell are you on about?Stop trying to boost your word count by typing absolute b****cks and random crap.Put something sensible on this thread.(Directed at Christoff)

The N64 controller is still the best.I managed to damage the connection lead to the console so much it didn't fit in properly but it still worked like a charm.
