BOARD'S SNAPBOARD (NO RESET SNAPBACK CAPACITOR MODULES)
Goomy's revised circuit on our exclusive custom PCB
​
CAD $25 $5 For installation
Easy 4 wire installation that fixes snapback on both the X and Y axis with a even higher degree of accuracy than a standard snapback capacitor module. Compatible with gamecube controllers for any game and any system!
​
Our revision is even slimmer and the most affordable on the market!
FAQ
WHY DO I NEED THIS?
Due to the wear on controllers overtime the capacitance required for the controller changes and the capacitor needs to be changed. This prevents that as instead of desoldering and resoldering capacitors you simply flip a switch. Additionally different combinations of capacitors can be used for more precision. It allows for combining of capacitors to have more precise values.
WHAT'S THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN THIS AND A STANDARD SNAPBACK CAPACITOR MODULE
This contains more capacitors that are smaller that allows for more precise and higher capacitances to be run through the controller. This benefits every controller but new controllers the even more!
​
It does not require you to reset your controller when you plug it in so it works with the Switch. The standard snapback capacitor module drifts on the Switch as there is no way to reset the gamecube controller on the Switch unlike the gamecube
It also has a lower profile for easier installation and improved aesthetic for transparent controllers.

​
DO I NEED IT OVER A STANDARD SNAPBACK CAPACITOR MODULE
If you play Ultimate or use the controller for games other than melee then yes. For melee it also provides a tangible benefit as it prevents snapback more precisely which shrinks the deadzone with the capacitor installed
DOESN'T UCF FIX IT?
No. They said controllers have too much variance in snapback to fix it in software. Additionally most fixes in UCF are done by increasing the leniency in certain inputs. If they were to increase the leniency for snapback it would ruin certain pivoting tech.
CAN YOU INSTALL IT FOR ME?
If you can drop off your controller in Richmond and pick it up or can ship it to me and pay for shipping and handling back then yes. Exceptions made on a case to case basis.

HOW TO INSTALL
Trim the wires if desired
There are 4 wires
RED
BLUE
GREEN
YELLOW
​
​
BLUE to the middle pin of the x potentiometer
RED to the middle pin of the y potentiometer
YELLOW to the right pin of the x potentiometer (closest to the edge of the controller)
GREEN to the left pin of the x potentiometer (closest to the y potentiometer)
​
​
Modify the controller and glue the wires as shown https://youtu.be/6sUz_foGi5Y?t=144

HOW TO DETERMINE REQUIRED CAPACITANCE
Follow this list of which switches to turn on and test if there is snapback at each level UNPLUG YOUR CONTROLLER EVERY TIME YOU CHANGE SWITCHES
(The Top Bank of Switches are for the X axis. The bottom bank is the Y axis. They will most likely be different)
1 = 0.05 uf
2 = 0.1 uf
2 + 1 = 0.15 uf
3 = 0.2 uf
3 + 1 = 0.25uf
3 + 2 = 0.3uf
3 + 2 + 1 = 0.35 uf
4 = 0.4 uf
4 + 1 = 0.45 uf
4 + 2 = 0.5 uf
4 + 2 + 1 = 0.55 uf
4 + 3 = 0.6 uf
4 + 3 + 1 = 0.65 uf
4 + 3 + 2 = 0.7 uf
4 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 0.75 uf
5 = 0.8 uf
5 + 1 = 0.85 uf
5 + 2 = 0.9 uf
5 + 2 + 1 = 0.95 uf
5 + 3 = 1 uf
5 + 3 + 1 = 1.05 uf
5 + 3 + 2 = 1.1 uf
5 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 1.15 uf
5 + 4 = 1.2 uf
5 + 4 + 1 = 1.25 uf
5 + 4 + 2 = 1.3 uf
5 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 1.35 uf
5 + 4 + 3 = 1.4 uf
5 + 4 + 3 + 1 =1.45 uf
5 + 4 + 3 + 2 =1.5 uf
5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 1.55 uf

If you turn off all switches your controller will be exactly the same as stock
HELP I’M DROPPING INPUTS/I NEED TO RECALIBRATE
Go find where you are on the list and go backwards steps until you have snapback and then move 1 level forward
HELP MY CONTROLLER IS DRIFTING
This is a phenomenon that only occurs at the highest capacitance. The solution is to simply replug the controller and make sure you are not holding the stick. The highest capacitances are almost never used even for brand new controllers.
