gamecube controller drifting when I move left

I noticed that when I play super smash bros ultimate, even when i push my control stick to the right, my character goes to the left. I think it is a drifting issue, can anyone help me with this issue?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I had a Wavebird that was having the same issue. You need to replace the stickbox. You can order an aftermarket stickbox from Amazon or Aliexpress. What I prefer to do is to get a Wii Nunchuk with a good stick and desolder the stickbox. The Nunchuk and Gamecube controller use the exact same stickbox so you can simply solder it onto your Gamecube controller.

Was is the stickbox? Do I need a screwdriver to get the stickbox out?

The stickbox is what actually reads your stick movements. To replace it you'll need a Tri-Wing screwdriver and a soldering iron. Here's a tutorial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpZFeJU9...
