gc-forever - Gamecube/Wii Forums

I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong section .

I'm looking for replacement joysticks for my controllers. I had a look at these: http://bit.ly/1qrnJay , but I'm not sure if they're any good.
Anyone out there with any experience with this? Thanks! Awesome forum by the way.

Why do you need them, did the caps break? Or are they not working like they used to?

I bought some used controllers and the caps were broken

Those are exactly what you need as long as the rest of the controller works.

That's what I thought. Do you have any experience with '3rd party' caps?

No but I do know that some are interchangeable, ie I have an old roommate who had gc caps on his 360 remote.

I've never tried it, but you can reportedly use nunchuck joystick caps or Wii U caps which in my opinion have a similar feel but a better look. Black ones dont yellow either (doritos now acceptable when playing).

Nunchuck/classic controller caps will work fine.
Simply remove and place, nothing else to it.

It would be cheaper for me to buy a replacement cap instead of a nunchuck, but thanks for the tip:)
