i'm still around!  i did fix one of my pads, opened it up and found the left stick had snapped under the circular 'hood' bit. I superglued a metal pin into the stick and then into the pad, and viola!  its not 100%, sometimes the spring doesn't reutnr the stick to the middle, but it works fine for most stuff.

munntendo - my display is off to the left slightly too. Because my tv decides 60htz should be off by about 10 pixels (same with 60htz from my xbox too). most 60htz games have a screen adjust for this very reason. could this be your problem?

I've broken two official pads in a week . my own fault i admit, through rage at endless deaths on eternal darkness, and the stupidly difficult first boss on metroid prime.

On one both triggers are now R (mad huh?).
On the other the left analogue stick is completely detached and has ceased to work.
Although i doupt it, can either of these be repaired?
