    Default MY Saturn model 2 controller shoulder button is stuck

    Is there anything I can do to make it become unstuck? it doesnt click when pressed down like the L button does it is the R side that is broken. The controller rattles when shaken. It's in good shape otherwise except for the R button.

    I think I just broke the controller even more i used a butter knife to pop the button out now it goes back in but it is loose.

    What's up with islands? Get more land.
    What's up with deserts? Get less sand.

    Take the controller apart and check inside of it, sounds like something broke off it rattles when shaken. You might be able to just reglue whatever little piece of plastic might have broke off.

    what do I need to take it apart? I dont think I have anything that I can use to take it apart. Also I think it is ruined with the fact that I popped out the button with a butter knife.

    -Facepalm.jpg- You use a philips head screw driver to take it apart. Even if you think it's ruined it wouldn't hurt to take it apart still to check it out.

    I thought you only had the first model controllers and a 3D controller?

    The two digital ones are first model, the analog one is a 3D controller. Neither of them are model 2.

    Also, other than game cartridges themselves, almost nothing from Sega has security bits. All of the controllers and consoles use standard phillips screws.

    Did you not even bother to flip the controller over and LOOK to see what was holding it together? Some people just have to be told everything.

    Urzu, some small part of me still doesn't believe you're for real.
