Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me. I'm speedrunning OOT on Gamecube after moving from N64 and I'm having a lot of trouble with the c-stick, especially when trying to do Navi dives and go into first-person mode.

On the N64 these just involved a button press, but the stick is causing me a lot of issues as it's far too inaccurate.

I'm looking into other controllers, what's the best one to go for? I just want to have the c-buttons work as actual buttons again.

Thanks!

You should only be using the C-Stick for C up. The X, Y and Z buttons map to C Left, C Right and C Down respectively. Using the C stick for non-up directions is just awful as you’ve realized.

So there isn't a pad that has c-up as an actual button?

No, C Up is still done through the C stick.

Right, thanks.

One more question - doing a Navi dive with the c-stick. Once I've pressed B twice to do the slash and jumpslash, do I have to mash the C-Stick up, or do I just need to hold it up after pressing B the second time?

I can never figure out the proper way to do it.

It's just mashing the c up stick. While being an analog stick it maps to a digital press in game so holding it doesnt repeatedly press it.

Also for future questions I would advise joining our discord as not many people are active on these forums. Link in the resources section.

Thanks, I will!
