Using the left and right side was easy, but deepthroating the middle section and controlling the analogue stick with your tongue was not easy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbob42 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 The N64 controller was ridiculous but it was perfectly functional at the time. Most games picked two prongs and stuck with 'em, meaning it was essentially just a regular controller. Twin sticks weren't really a thing yet (and certainly not a standard) and the Z trigger was pretty cool. It wasn't amazing or anything but I think it gets a lot more flak in hindsight because of the silly prongs. My biggest complaint isn't the design but the build quality. That stick really loosened up a lot over time and made them hard to maintain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Analog, triggers, and rumble stand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not conspiratorially minded but nobody can convince me that Mario Party wasn’t an elaborate scam to sell more controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Maybe get a good look at more Mario Golf dlc, hopefully a damn regular set of tournaments where you can play as mario characters through the courses. Also maybe they’ll show more Warioware post launch stuff, loving the weekly challenge online tournament, really increases the lifespan, if they added some new micro games in here and there that would be amazing. Game wise I totally expect XB3 for early next year but it would be cool if they have a December surprise, where is my boy Kirby this year?!

I did have a lot of friends who had wrecked N64 controllers, but somehow I never had this problem. The worst my controller got was no worse than any other controller I've bought till today, and I owned 4 for multiplayer games. Maybe I was just very lucky, but I do wonder if the impression that they were bad was due to most of us playing it in an our earlier years when maybe people were more likely to be unnecessarily rough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though we were all in high school/college by the time the N64 came out, so it's not unlikely we took care with our controllers back then. Actually, now that I think about it? I had ONE controller that got busted. But that was because beer was spilled all over it during a party. Made all the buttons and the analog stick...very sticky. HOWEVER...it still worked, surprisingly. You just had to give it a little more "oomph" when pressing in a direction or button input. We nicknamed it the "Drunken Master" controller, lulz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShreddieMercury Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I also never had problems with the controller, but I also never played Mario Party. My N64 was basically a Perfect Dark party machine. If this is what's happening, I'll 100% be signing up for NSO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLeon Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I never had a N64. It was a console I only played at a friend’s house or in the dentist’s lobby. I never got used to that damn controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a similar setup in the corner of the waiting room.
