Hi all. I'm sick of replacing my whole controller when the thumbsticks die but it looks like a big job to replace them. Does anyone know of a 3rd party controller under $100 that's more serviceable? Something where I could replace a bad thumbstick in 5-10 minutes rather than half an hour? The edge looks nice, but is price prohibitive for me. I don't need all those extra features, just the replaceable thumbsticks.

I'd also like to know. It seems that every console this generation uses the same joystick part, which as you said takes half an hour to desolder and resolder.
