Librarian Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Haha...Mercenaries is easy yes but the 5'th time I beat both dual blade chainsaw wielding fiends.. with Leon (the wuss) and still just needed about 2 points to get that last star that was it for me... it was either drop the game or drop my GameCube out of my window... (need a good finishing line)... "mercenaries with Leon (the wuss) turned into my own personal Vietnam" and no.. my xbox controller would have been blown to pieces by now had I given it the same treatment my GameCube one got
Tyson Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 You people are damn irrational. I can't think of any justifiable reason to purposely destroy a controller.
Jackster Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I bought a Sega Mega Drive controller, one with 6 buttons instead of 3, and the A B and C buttons broke on the one, I still have no idea how that happened. Apart from that I;ve never broken any controllers, but my cousin's PSOne controller had all of the plastic insulator taken off the wire somehow, and my friend Hayley's Gamecube controller had a bite mark on it
gaggle64 Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 What do you people do to your controllers? Hell I've found buses easier to break than controllers. Ah, I remember the time I got into a harumph trying to finish F-Zero story mode. Those poor school children...
Rummy Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 I actually broke a controller somehow on MM, because I did the stick swirly spin attack alot(which does consume magic but is the same as the lower one that does), I was doing it in the stone temple when suddenly my stick just got 'stuck' in one direction, I couldn't fix it at all by recalibrating it in weird positions. I was real upset, because it'd been with me throughout the game, was competition pro and had turbo/auto switches just like my beloved snes controller! Speaking of that snes controller, the B button on it has worn a bit thin through overuse :s
Kaeporagaebora Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 I once snapped a SNES controller clean in half. I believe the game was called X-Men and Spiderman, or something like that. It's terrible, if you haven't heard of it, you're better off than I am. And all my 64 controllers eventually died, but I can't remember how.
McPhee Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 Football games while im drunk. I lobbed an Xbox controller out a window once at a mates house after loosing a game of Pro Evo oh, wait this is the retro forum... Street Fighter 2 - i ripped the wire out of the controler after my little brother beat for the 20th time in a row via Dhalsim's flying kick move
4q2 Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 1x Atari joystick on Daley Thompsons Decathlon on the spectrum 2x Quickshot II on Yie ar kung fu on the C64, I managed to calm down after that with the Amiga by owning 1 joystick for the complete run of the system (possibly because I had a Quickshot II pro job that was microswitched an had a reinforced metal shaft). The last pad I 'broke' was the SNES pads right shoulder button on Street Fighter II turbo...
Librarian Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 well I wrecked tons of joysticks on the old C64.. but then I got the best joystick EVER... The Arcade
Roostophe Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 On Wednesday I damaged my PS2 controller after a very frustrating game on Pro Evo 6. No way am I losing to Middlesbrough! Sod off with that!
solitanze Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 Mario Party games have done the most damage to my controllers. N64, I have the original grey controller still functional but the stick is badly worn out, the GC controllers, just a few marks, have lasted quite well...
