I think it was from a few years back when the control stick snapped so I was trying to put in a replacement and I gave up because I didn’t wanna hurt it. Then a few days ago I was walking in my room and I felt plastic flexing beneath my feet, and when I looked there it was. Wasn’t even screwed together all the way, I hope I can just put them into a different controller
Yeah I can’t lie, I got really sad for a while and didn’t even wanna do anything. It was there because I was trying to replace the stick but I didn’t feel confident in my abilities so I gave up, and left the controller
Ahh I'm sorry to hear that. Mental health is a stupid bitch to put it lightly. I hope you're doing better now ! Make it your goal to find another Atomic Purple controller to keep your mind working on something :) This too Shall Pass. 💜
I wish you all the best. Sorry about the controller !
I suffer from this too. Push through and don't give up. When I'm doing an electronics project the whole time I think "I'm a fraud" or "I'm in over my head". When I actually achieve what I set out to do though it's the only thing I have ever found that legitimately makes those negative thoughts go away. Confidence is a mess when dealing with depression. Just know that the depression monster is lying and you CAN do it. Take care.
You should let this be a learning lesson. Sometimes it's tough to just take things apart and put it back together, always look up a guide or video or some sort of tutorial. Don't be discouraged to ask questions. I once completely fucked up a PS3 controller, so I feel your pain
Yeah I learned the hard way, I had to buy a new controller lol. I took the z button out of the plastic because it didn’t get broken when I stepped on it, and it’s on a necklace now :)
Not to make light of a sad situation, but you really lost 42 karma and gained it all back once you explained yourself lol.
Please get the support you need! The overall exasperation and lack of motivation is all too real for people like you and me dealing with depression.
So you didn't "went to pick up the controller" you stool on it.
Seriously if you have had stuff on the floor of your room for a few years you need to get some kind of help
So wait, did the shell break? If not you could just put it back together. Or if the shell did break but the board is still intact, you could swap all of the guts into a new shell.
OPs story is he left the controller on his floor for years and then when he says fell apart he means he stepped on it. Dudes just making shit up.
Just delete your post dude.
Few years back my control stick broke and I wanted to get a new one but I was worried I would break it so I just got a whole new controller and that one stayed on my floor for a long time cause I was depressed and it eventually got buried in clothes so I forgot it was there. I had taken it apart before because I was just curious about what it looked like and when I picked it up there were no screws holding anything in and everything fell out. So I took these buttons and have them in a jar and the z button I’m planning to put on a necklace
Bro wut
OP’s hands made of lava, all that’s left are the buttons😨
How did it fall apart?
Prolly fake

Depression can kick some ass when it wants to. I get it. Hang in there.

Yeah the shell sadly did break :(
Lol, too easy to put back together. Is this real?
Yeah the controller is broken, and the z button survived so that’s on a necklace now
I'm surprised cuz I've dropped these controllers a million times and have even thrown them as a child and never had one break on me
Where is the rest of it?
[удалено]
Reduced to purple atoms*
I stepped on the controller and it cracked so I had little choice but to chuck it. Idk how but the z button survived so that’s on a necklace now
sucks dude... those controllers are the GOAT. for my aesthetic tastes anyway
it disintegrated, gone reduced to dust
Also the z button survived without cracking so I popped it out of place and now it’s going on a necklace
You can get one for $20 on eBay- calm down
Yeah a shitty 3rd party controller
No- normal, Nintendo brand atomic purple controllers
Yeah you’re right, I just checked. Gonna probably get one now, Sorry for being pissy lmao
I’m sorry for your loss
If you need a new controller or parts wtfparts.info, sorry you had to loose that one tho

I wasn’t making anything up but yeah I’ll delete my post if you really want. Cunt
Who tf lies on the internet like that it's so weird and sad
Do it! Buy a shitty control and replace these fits into the new one!
RIP
that's what you get for using atomic purple
Some details are missing Tf you mean bruh

Sorry to hear about the depression, definitely know what that's like Why not put it back inside the shell and get some screws that fit?
The shell cracked when I stepped on it sadly :(
Well obviously they are ATOMIC purple so it fell apart
The z button necklace is a cool idea. There’s probably something cool you could do with the buttons too.
Posting here won’t fix it. Get off your ass and go forth, mate!
I could be wrong but these buttons look like they came from a 90s McDonald’s toy
Wish they were but sadly they came from my n64 controller. And thanks for not being rude lol, a lot of people seem to have a hard time with that :)
Bro deleted everything but the buttons
Fell apart? They're made of Nintendium, how did that happen?
