Introduzione
This guide will show you how to replace the stickbox of a Nintendo GameCube controller. Stickboxes cannot be bought by first-party sellers and the ones third-party ones are not good quality . So we will be using ones from a Wii Nunchuks, another GameCube controller or by swapping with the C-stick. A little soldering is required to remove the box and soldering a new one.

GameCube controllers are still actively used in competitive Smash Bros and as well as retro gaming. They are usually hard to purchase brand new as supplies run out fast or must be bought used from third-party resellers. The stick can be swapped with each other on a controller or with even a Wii Nunchuck.
