Troubles with GameCube adapter

[ZukiniPie]

So hey guys, let me tell you about my...issue. I have a gcc that works fine and has been used for a long time, but recently, it hasn't. So I start up smash wii u like normal the gcc works on the menus, I navigate to smash and start the game. When I start,I can't do a lot of things, I can only jump (with x/y) neutral special, and shield. Please help. Oh and I have checked,gcc works on PM I have tried.(UPDATE) I have tried my friends gcc and it works perfectly fine.

Have you tried recalibrating the controller? Press and hold X + Y + Start for three seconds. If that does not work, try plugging the adaptor into different USB ports (front of the console if you are currently using the back, or vice-versa.) If that does not resolve it, try plugging in only the black USB wire, leaving the gray one out (which is only needed for rumble support.)

I have tried the use ports, I will try to recalibrate it after school

Alright, thanks David! You really helped me out, the recalibration works.

Glad to hear it worked for you. I often had to recalibrate my GC controller in the Brawl era when the C-stick would only work in certain directions, especially after freshly hot-swapping a controller.

So the controllers is good now, but is there a way were I don't need to recalibrate it every time I boot up the game or plug it in? It's been annoying people when I go to tourneys.

Hey guys, I have an even bigger problem - my GC adapter stopped working at all. I tried several different USB ports, but it doesn't react to any inputs I make. Does anybody have suggestions on what I should do now?
