Replacing Gamecube analogue stick covers.

[alienjesus]

Is there anywhere you can buy replacement analogue sticks or preferably analogue stick covers/pads (the textured rubbery bit that goes over the plastic?). The rubbery stuff has come off of 3 of my Gamecube controllers now, and it's a pain in the neck.

Hyperkin sells something like that.

Standard disclaimer: I don't work for Hyperkin and I don't represent them. I'm just posting this here because I think this is the product you're looking for.

There is always ebay, but Gaming Generation is where the hardcore Smashbrothers fans go:

I suggest getting two for each and replacing the cstick with one. It makes FPS games so much easier.

In the interest of fairness, I think that Racketboy sells the same product in his store. Check here:

It seems like he has the yellow C stick in stock, but not the grey analog stick.

Also, I think Racket is having a sale this week. See here:

Thanks for the links guys, now I just need to see if they deliver to the UK for an OK price.

I don't really play FPS games Fast, and I have no issue with the C-Stick.

I noticed Racketboy sold them shortly after asking this, but he's unfortunately sold out of the ones I need.

Speaking of Smash Brothers, I definitely blame that game for my mangled gamecube pads. Probably put a couple thousand game hours between all 4 controllers over the years on Melee and Brawl.

Edit: Hmm, Hyperkin only seems to sell to registered resellers, and the other website seems to not like my UK address :S

I've seen some generic rubber thumbstick cover replacements before online and at GS here in the US in the past. I'm sure you can find some on ebay somewhere.

Hey guys. I can't find any of these for a non-ridiculous price on eBay in the UK, and the two sites you guys linked seem to be a bit awkward about shipping to the UK.

Would anyone be willing to order them and then post them to me if I were to send the money via paypal?

No rush btw.

I can.
