This video is so good I cannot wait to customize my own GameCube controller and if I mess up I will keep working on it until I get it right and Thank you for the tutorial :)
Damn.. bro you only have 60 subscribers. Honestly when i was watching ur video i thought you are like more popular youtuber cuz of the editing and this. But i was surprised when i watched the whole video that you have small amount of subsribers. You deserve my sub. Great job and keep it up
It sounds so light and hollow, even the A and B buttons sound like they have good snap-back and the buttons don't get stuck. Even the analog sticks look pretty good, and they don't look like they will drift anytime soon.
The ones I got are from SENORRETRO on Etsy and they went for $35 (face buttons abxy, z, dpad and start) www.etsy.com/shop/SENORRETRO Selstor, where I got my sticks from also sells buttons but I believe their face buttons were more expensive www.etsy.com/listing/1042488457/ There are also a ton of other people selling buttons on Etsy, just make sure you check the reviews first especially with cheaper ones
Even with the metal thing is place I can never seem to get the Z button to not be so stiff! Someone needs to make a video on exactly how to get one of those trimmed down properly so that they click and move more freely like the factory ones
He is using a PHOB which is basically a custom motherboard built from scratch. The original gamecube controllers had 3 major revisions of their motherboard with the major difference being the stickboxes used for the analog sticks. The first revision used t1 stickboxes, the second revisions used t2 and the third revision used t3 stickboxes. The best OEM board are the ones with T3 stickboxes as they tend to last longer, be more consistent and accurate over time. Regular stickboxes use sliding potentiometers to determine the analog sticks position, and over time the moving parts wear down which lead to them behaving differently (Reffered to as PODE). The earlier stickboxes used varying amounts of metal moving parts which wore down faster, whereas T3 boxes were all plastic. The PHOB board he used in the video uses a mixture of T3 stickboxes and magnetic hall effect sensors instead of potentiometers so to remove the inevitable wear and tear and inconsistency of moving parts. PHOBs are super expensive ($100-$200 just for a board), the negative impacts of PODE matter more for Melee then Ultimate as Ultimate just isn't as high in APM and precise as melee, so honestly a good T3 OEM controller is perfect for Ultimate and anything beyond that is personal preference. The best way to get a T3 gamecube controller is to buy one of the smash ultimate branded controllers, which can be found new in box on amazon for about 50 dollars. www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Controller-Super-Smash-Bros-switch/dp/B07HC2F97Q/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=smash+ultimate+gamecube+controller&qid=1682165507&sprefix=smash+ultimate+,aps,434&sr=8-2&language=en_US¤cy=USD
Do you know where you can get torx screws that fit the threads of the controller? If I bother to take one apart, I think I'd wanna ditch all the triwing and philips screws while I'm at it to make future disassembly easier.
As a new competitive smash player is it worth getting a phob controller. When I look at getting a notched controller with SnapBack correction it’s about $140
For me it was worth it as I was going through new controllers pretty fast (the stick box potentiometers kept wearing out every few months). I’ve had my phob since September and it feels just as good as when I first got it! The up front cost of a phob is a lot but it may be worth it in the long run if you play a lot. Just make sure you get ur phob from a phob approved modder so you know your getting a good product and not a poorly made one. I got mine from @wavtype on Twitter and they did a great job! (Also the phob 2 is dropping or has already dropped so you may want to go for that over phob 1)
THAT'S why I can't get the custom Z-buttons to stay in place! I didn't realize you needed that little metal piece! Here I was just thinking that all custom Z buttons are hot garbage.

I don't even have a gamecube controller but i watched this whole video lol
It was good
Thanks!
Me too bro
Glad you finally got the pieces! Great to see it come together!
that GameCube controller looks awesome !

Thank you!
Im planning on customizing my gcc and this tutorial helps! thanks
I mostly just wanna do art if I plan on customizing my gamecube controller but this will also be helpful 👍🏽
The best controller ever made
Help! I need a good color highlight that goes well with an Indigo GCN controller! I got one and I’d like a button color that goes well with Indigo!
Just got a new controller, want to get some custom buttons, do you know a good quality but affordable place to get some from?
The ones I got are from SENORRETRO on Etsy and they went for $35 (face buttons abxy, z, dpad and start) www.etsy.com/shop/SENORRETRO
Selstor, where I got my sticks from also sells buttons but I believe their face buttons were more expensive www.etsy.com/listing/1042488457/

Good work. I wish you can find a way to remove that gamecube port and add a USB C port so that we can enjoy a zero latency gameplay.
Cool vid ❤👍

What is your opinion on replacement analogsticks that are „best/good/closest to oem“ ? I’m in need of a new one cause my rubber peels off :(
I would love an answer to this question as well. A lot of the aftermarket ones are kind of "gummy" or "rubbery" feeling and don't feel quite right.
I keep trying to get my hands on a GameCube controller but I never have the cash on hand when in cex :(

Heyyo, are your custom sticks rubber capped? or straight resin?
Straight resin, they feel weird at first but after the first day or two I really like them now.
