That's the thing, the worst I did with my controllers was having the audacity to use them. Frequent symptoms included the left analog getting too loose to use, a random face button dying on me, a select few of the L/R triggers no longer responding, the L3/R3 buttons getting sticky, and the left analog getting so wonky that it frequently got stuck in the "up" position and held itself there by what I can only assume was sheer force of will.
And Nintendo's mark-ups on accessories are nothing compared to Sony's, believe me. I still recall being irked that GameCube controllers and memory cards were more affordable than PS2 ones back when I kept having to replace PS2 controllers and get yet more memory cards due to games that used an eighth of their total space per save.
