    It sounds so light and hollow, even the A and B buttons sound like they have good snap-back and the buttons don't get stuck. Even the analog sticks look pretty good, and they don't look like they will drift anytime soon.

      The ones I got are from SENORRETRO on Etsy and they went for $35 (face buttons abxy, z, dpad and start) www.etsy.com/shop/SENORRETRO
      Selstor, where I got my sticks from also sells buttons but I believe their face buttons were more expensive www.etsy.com/listing/1042488457/
      There are also a ton of other people selling buttons on Etsy, just make sure you check the reviews first especially with cheaper ones

    Do you know where you can get torx screws that fit the threads of the controller? If I bother to take one apart, I think I'd wanna ditch all the triwing and philips screws while I'm at it to make future disassembly easier.

    • @fudgingteddy9481

      He is using a PHOB which is basically a custom motherboard built from scratch. The original gamecube controllers had 3 major revisions of their motherboard with the major difference being the stickboxes used for the analog sticks. The first revision used t1 stickboxes, the second revisions used t2 and the third revision used t3 stickboxes.
      The best OEM board are the ones with T3 stickboxes as they tend to last longer, be more consistent and accurate over time. Regular stickboxes use sliding potentiometers to determine the analog sticks position, and over time the moving parts wear down which lead to them behaving differently (Reffered to as PODE). The earlier stickboxes used varying amounts of metal moving parts which wore down faster, whereas T3 boxes were all plastic. The PHOB board he used in the video uses a mixture of T3 stickboxes and magnetic hall effect sensors instead of potentiometers so to remove the inevitable wear and tear and inconsistency of moving parts.
      PHOBs are super expensive ($100-$200 just for a board), the negative impacts of PODE matter more for Melee then Ultimate as Ultimate just isn't as high in APM and precise as melee, so honestly a good T3 OEM controller is perfect for Ultimate and anything beyond that is personal preference. The best way to get a T3 gamecube controller is to buy one of the smash ultimate branded controllers, which can be found new in box on amazon for about 50 dollars.

    As a new competitive smash player is it worth getting a phob controller. When I look at getting a notched controller with SnapBack correction it’s about $140

    • @shugokimon
      @shugokimon  Рік тому

      For me it was worth it as I was going through new controllers pretty fast (the stick box potentiometers kept wearing out every few months). I’ve had my phob since September and it feels just as good as when I first got it! The up front cost of a phob is a lot but it may be worth it in the long run if you play a lot. Just make sure you get ur phob from a phob approved modder so you know your getting a good product and not a poorly made one. I got mine from @wavtype on Twitter and they did a great job! (Also the phob 2 is dropping or has already dropped so you may want to go for that over phob 1)
