That's to be expected if you spill coca-cola on them.

Wiimotes seem to last longer, because waggle is more durable, and replaces much of the button/control stick action of other consoles. My classic controller is doing fine, my GC controllers are starting to develop floppy sticks from nearly a decade of use.

My Genesis, Snes and Master System controllers are all fine, a couple of sticky buttons but generally ok

I wasn't proud my first controller's analog is broken from playing too many games >

The Wiimotes are in great shape, except a little discolouration on the numchucks sticks and a little dent in one of the wiimotes when someone pulverized a glass vase with it.

And all my MegaDrive standard controllers are nearly dead, unresponsive buttons, dpads, the only one working is a big arcade stick one, and the stick started failing :(

One and only warning: if you just don't have anything to add, don't even bother posting.  Besides, you're on a gaming forum and you're telling people to get a life, I hope you see the irony.

Um my wii nunchuck thumb stick is not that white anymore is that counts? I think the only things iv ever really worn down on conrollers would be the thumb stick, especially on the 64! and no it does not make me feel good! it means the frigin controller does not work as good as it used to :(

My first is long dead. I'm on #3.

i had 11 xbox 1 controllers, that should tell you something. One time i was playing the freaking controller started burning or something.

5 xbox 360 controllers, 1 dead, the rest are fine i guess.
