The control-stick neutral position glitch affects Nintendo GameCube and Nintendo 64[citation needed] games.
If the player turns the power of the console on while holding the control-stick in a certain direction, the game will act like that position is always held down, until the problem is fixed, however these 'fixes' do not prevent the glitch from happening again if the control stick is tilted in a certain direction when the console is powered on again.
This hardware problem is acknowledged by Nintendo.
How to solve the problem
- Turn the system off and back on, without touching the control stick.
- Press the X, Y, and Start buttons simultaneously for three seconds during gameplay, making sure to not touch the control stick.
- Unplug the game controller and reconnect it again while the system is on.
Exploitation
- In Pokémon Colosseum, the control-stick neutral position problem has been exploited to have Wes continuously walk down, and have the game automatically pull off the cliff glitch. This makes the process of purifying Shadow Pokémon easier.
