lol, i have no idea. I would try taking an all-purpose cleaning spray and wet a paper towel with it then rub the area you want to clean.

*shrug* thats the best I can tell ya

Are you talking about the plastic or the analog?
It's own? Wow, how was that?

The analog. And "by it's own" I mean it seemed to rub off on it's own or something eventually. Now I can't even tell I ate pizza and played a game at the same time last summer.

Is the yellow completly gone? :surprise: 
I asked about this on another forum and they told me to use Clorex, for sale on the Wal Mart of the United States, but I don't live there.

Mine is starting to yellow, but I don't eat Doritos/Cheetos or Pizza and do wash my hands before playing, but I got sweat anyway.
So, it comes out and become as white as before on it's own? Did you used alcohol? What do you recomend for me?

i remember reading something on how to de-yellow an aging Quadra, the directions were to get a warm bucket of soapy water and a sponge and just to wash the casing gently

not sure if it will work on White plastic mind (or if it would work at all :veryhappy:  , i have my doubts :P )

The plastic is OK to clean. The stick it's self is the problem.

I asked this on another board, and a guy told me not to use alcohol and things like this on the rubber, because it could damage it.

oh its rubber is it? in which case i don't think you can do anything about it

painting it doesn't sound like such a stupid idea, you may be able to find some sort of paint-on type liquid that acts as another layer of rubber when dry, to cover the perished one over, i don't know if such a thing exists mind, let me know if it doesn't and i'll get inventing, there would seem to be a demand in such a product

Nintendo World(official Nintendo magazine) says that a tooth brush with a little bit of detergent can clean it :normal:

I don't think i'd ever trust an official source tbh :P

i guess because of the history of the UK's Official Nintendo's mag of being biased fanboy rubbish since... about the end of the N64's time
