When I plug my GC controler into any port, the system suddenly turns off. I'm sure I need a new controler, but I'm just wondering why it's doing this and if it's a common problem.
Note: It's an official GC controler, not third party.
That is very bizzare. Maybe there is a short in it somewhere.

you should sell it on ebay as a gag controller. "Fool your friends. make them think their GC is broken. More fun than a barrel of monkeys!"
Have you tried a different controller?
That's a wicked idea.Originally Posted by MichaeltheGreat
Have you tried cleaning it? It's not like Nintendo Hardware to be faulty =O
Bad short. Stop putting it in your Gamecube, if you like your controller ports working.
