Hi,
Has anyone had any luck either repairing or replacing the CD32
controller.  The directional controller broke internally.  So now I
have no control. (I'm out of control?)
Anyway, what else works besides a mouse (In some cases)?
 
Mark

I've seen them selling for under $10 in Amazing ads.....$20+ will get you 
the Competition Pro version.

Well you could give Better Concepts a call in the United States. They did
have a sale on for the Competition Pro Pad which is an awesome CD32
replacement Joypad. They were selling for $15US. I love this pad, I don't
even use my original pad anymore. I don't have there number handy but here
is there Web site.

The Competition Pro Pad also comes with Autofire buttons.

Get yourself a Competition Pro joypad - far stronger than the CD32 one.
