What controller do you use?

Whenever my GCN controller does that, i usually unplug it and plug it back in, which works.

Maybe you could do that but with whatever controller you use?

It's damaged. There is really no other alternative to that except that it's not being read properly. But, you've tried resolving that.

I had this exact problem with my Gamepad a year or so back, and the ****ty news is, if recalibrating the controller doesn't work, there's no real fix outside of either buying a spare control stick online and fixing it yourself, which is tedious and also requires a really specific kind of screwdriver just to decompile the damn thing, or buying a new Gamepad, which is expensive as hell as Nintendo, in their infinite wisdom, decided not to carry Gamepads separately and have them only bundled with Wii U consoles.
Yeah. Doesn't help given how flimsy Gamepads are to begin with. Of course, if you aren't using a Gamepad, then I can't help you there.

It sounds as though your control stick is too loose from wear over time. Your best option honestly may be to just buy a new controller.
