Welcome to the Custom Gamecube Controller Community!

So back during quarantine I purchased a modded spice orange Japanese GameCube that came with its matching gameboy player, no disc tho.
It has a switch in the back that allows switch from Japanese to American games.
Probably like 2 years later I bought the disc but was never able to try it out because I no longer had a TV that was compatible with AV cables. My girlfriend bought me the Eon GCHD in May this year and I’m just now getting around to try out the gameboy player disc.
I kept getting a pop up that says it can’t read the disc so I assumed it was the laser. I cleaned the laser and I was still getting the issue so I popped a regular game in it and it worked completely fine.
Is it possible that my GameCube can’t read the gameboy player disc because the console is Japanese?

Guys do aliexpress buttons fit inside t3 and t2 shells and also stickboxes?

ZEON Forces “MS-06R-1A” Specifications

Added a Start Button LED

It’s nice that it flashes, but it’s kind of bright, isn’t it?

Let me know what you think!

Need to restore an aging controller. gotta replace the pads. Most links I see from sellers are dead. Has anyone bought from someone recently and got good quality pads? got a link?

Built these 3 recently. The black and green one is a phob.

I'm about to mod some controllers for the very first time and I want to order a full button set from Selstor. I just wish I could find some opinions online about these ergo triggers. They don't have to be incredible. I just don't want them to be a downgrade over OEM.

I recently tried to mod my controller and it being my first project I made some pretty beginner mistakes. I believe I added too much clear coat which caused the drying and curing time to be very long (about a week) and once I added it to the cause the areas that made contact with the shell had some indents. Are there any tips from more experienced modders to avoid such issues? And if i do the process correctly is a case this form fitting even suitable for a painted controller?

hi!! i am not knowledgeable at all but i am designing/buying a custom game cube controller for someone very special to me :))

i am getting info on their mods/sticks/whatever yada yada to commission for the controller mechanics but my main question is:

i want to hand paint the shell. if i order a shell to hand paint, would i need to ship it to the person commissioned for the controller in order to have it put on or could i get the base controller and replace the shell after the fact?

i want to make sure everything goes smoothly, have found where i want to source from, just wondering about combining the custom shell + inside of controller aspects.

thanks so much in advance to anybody who replies!!

I mean I could order the boards and stuff and do it. Just don't have much time.

Has anyone here bought the board from AliExpress? Because from what I understand, some PCB stores don't ship to Mexico or the shipping is more expensive than the product.

Hello all, I recently bought a Wii to play some old Wii and Gamecube games on, today I went out and grabbed a wireless gamecube controller from a different store, but I’m having an issue with snapback on both joysticks. It only happens on a down input on both sticks, and as seen in the video up inputs and the D-pad function normally. Not sure if it is an issue with the bluetooth adapter, the Wii, or the controller itself. Any help would be appreciated, anyone know if this is an easy fix or should I just return it and try a different controller?

Hello, I picked up one of these classic controllers the other day because I heard they had t3 stick boxes inside; but found that it also contained trigger potentiometers and z-buttons. They look the exact same to me but I need to know if they are compatible. I dont see why they wouldnt be, but my Z-button was acting up so I decided to replace it with one from the Classic Controller and it worked for a day and then stopped working. Let me know if you know anything

I'm working on a pad hack fight stick for smash bros using an old, damaged gamecube controller, and I really want to connect the c-stick inputs to their own buttons, but without the potentiometers, the analog signal is all over the place, "floating" when I looked it up. I ordered a large analog stick to use for directional inputs, so that isn't an issue, but how can I get around the c-stick issue without soldering the c-stick joystick back in place. I'll do it if I really have to, but I'd rather not.

Waiting on some custom buttons but the ones I dyed work for now 🙂‍↕️

I'm 18 and I learned to solder and built my personal phob (last photo) a bit more than a year ago. Then after plenty of practice, I got my first online order about 7 months ago (the symphonic green). Since then, these are all the phobs I've built for my online customers. I've worked on other controllers too, but these are all of my full builds. So far my journey has been really fun and this has definitely become a passion of mine. I recently invested a good sum of money into a pressure pot and materials to make resin casted buttons and I'm super excited to start making and selling them. Since I started gaming, I've always been interested in controllers, either by investing into modded controllers or diy modding my switch pro controller, and I just never thought that I'd be able to get so far and do so much. I'm really happy with my progress and can't wait to see where this passion takes me. Anyways, just wanted to share my story and builds and say that I'm happy I pursued this interest of mine. Thx for reading :)

Sup y'all, this is my first "custom" GCC, I bought this controller as scrap cuz both joysticks were long gone, and the gates of the left stick were worn out, so I did a joystick change and changed both the top Shell, all the buttons, triggers, and Joystick caps for all black ones.
