Hello, all. I purchased a fully assembled g-boy from a very generous user here and everything is mostly working. However, I noticed some problems with shoulder buttons in some games. Looking at the controller tester, I’m seeing both L and R sit at 124 if they aren’t pressed, 0 if they’re pressed gently, and fully pressed if I press harder. Also, pressing R gently seems to make L fluctuate very quickly between 0 and 1. Some games don’t seem to care about this, but it renders others (GameCube Zelda games, etc.) unplayable.

Any ideas? I have not opened it up yet, but I have some modest soldering experience (successfully hard-modded a 3DSXL a few years ago) and am willing to attempt a repair if necessary. Thanks.

Edit: User error. I made sure the shoulder buttons were set to digital and restarted the Wii. Everything is working normally now. :)
