I have a PS2 slim with various controllers that exhibit the following behaviour:
Original dualshock 2 - sometimes cuts out and stops responding, occasionally fixed by pressing the plug more firmly into the socket.
Guitar Freaks controller - no problems whatsoever.
Drummania controller - no problems either.
Guitar Freaks arcade style controller - didn't work today, worked after pressing firmly, then cut out half way through the game and hasn't worked since at all.
I basically want to eliminate the arcade controller as being the problem. It seems likely that it is the PS2 since the dualshock is also flakey, but the regular GF/drummania controllers still work perfectly which is very odd.
I connected the arcade controller to my PS3 via a USB to PS2 controller adapter, and although it isn't usable for XMB navigation the buttons do react to being pressed, so I dont think there's a break in the cable.
Any thoughts?
