The expansion port on the back of the n64 controller
I have been trying to play Pokémon stadium for the n64 but all four of my controllers don’t read that there is a transfer pak and game boy game in the controller, two of the controllers are third party so that’s why they aren’t working with the transfer pak but I was wondering how to repair the oem expansion ports, I have tried three different transfer paks and multiple controllers to no avail, the Pokémon game I have been trying is authentic too, thanks

so i find it hard to believe that ALL 4 of them are bad. there might be something up with the console?

@logixal yeah, I kept on trying them and I finally got one to work so I guess I was just unlucky with my controller buys

Wow interesting. Maybe try cleaning the cartridges?

I'm having the same problem and noticed that one of the pins is broken on the controller expansion port. Trying to find a replacement piece to solder in, I don't want to buy a new controller. Unless anyone has a suggestion on how to solder it without replacing the whole thing. I'm not sure I know how to solder a new pin in there, it's that's even possible, those pins are small.
