Loose controller rubber

[SamusPoop]

I lost my rubber to my controller Idk if i'll find it anytime soon or not, but I see these as my options.

I can rush and cut the rubber off of a broken controlerand glue it on.

or to just play without it.

Can anyone tell me how without a rubber compares and a great brand of super glue to use?

Also I sh with my stick for a number of tasks like SHDL double fairs as marth and etc.

My friend plays without rubber on both sticks, and he's just fine. It's just a matter of getting used to it, I guess.

In my opinion, though, there's no point in expending the effort to do that if you can just repair your rubber. I don't even think you need to cut the rubber off; you might be able to peel it up around the edges and simply fasten it over the other controller's stick. Glue might help, though.

order a tri-wing screwdriver and take your controller apart and replace the stick with another one, its VERY easy.

but from what a very pro technical fox main once told me (if I remember correctly), it messes up the feeling of the whole controller completely...

but idk i open my up with my triwing all the time and switch the sticks when I need too lol

Nope, the only thing that changes feeling wise would be the analog stick, however thats not what im referring to.

This is the analog stick and the grip stick (What else to call it lol) put together

This is the analog stick and the grip stick taken apart

You just do that and replace the grip stick with a new one, it slides on and off quite easily, but grab it from the corners, the analog stick can come apart if you press to hard on the buttons

yea just buy a triwing for like 5$ and replace the stick on ur controller
really easy and self explanitory
when you open the controller open it face (button) down, and then take the...motherboard thing out slowly straight up
this will keep all the buttons where they should be, start button, etc. and if there are rubber faces to what the buttons actually press they should be there as well, if not just peel them off (they aren't truly stuck onto the motherboard) and put them in the correct positions atop the buttons

the control stick is basically just placed over the tru analog stick in the picture that guy zodiac linked, so just pull it off, i've don it a lot, it offers some resistence but i've never damaged a controller doing this

so pull it off, and put on the new one

when you put the controller back together, make sure all the pieces are where they should be, and make sure that the R and L trigger buttons, there are parts attatched to them that are raised that actually act as the press, make sure those coincide w/ the slots they go into on the the slots available on the motherboard

place the loop of the wire around the raised circular i believe it's a screw hole? just place it over that, that's where it sits naturally so i make sure to always put it back cause it can be a hassle trying to get it elsewhere

put the controller back on, make sure it snaps, hold it together with your hand and make sure all the buttons feel normal (might feel a little more mushy than normal since not supported by screws), then screw it back on, you can and probably should test shielding as well to make sure that went smoothly

this is just to avoid hassle of having to unscrew againw hen u realized u ****ed up
