>for 20 dollars

where? on the site it is 30 dollars plus shipping ($8 to pennsylvania)

how well does the dpad work?

Ultimately, I think the octagonal gate was a mistake, because it's not the same size and angle/shape as the one on the original N64 controller, it appears to be limiting movement just ever so slightly in certain games. I noticed in the boss fight with Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time, it was harder to line myself up perfectly facing him to reflect his attacks because the forward part of the gate wanted to keep me locked in a specific angle that wasn't totally on par with the original N64's.

I could just be retarded though.

>>4623000
You're probably just retarded, because in the version on Gamecube there's no issue, and it has the same gate.

I feel like even though the overall shape and size seems to match the Switch Pro Controller, the Retrofighters n64 controller is just a BIT too small in the hands. This is mostly because a lot of prime real estate on the back of the controller is taken up by the expansion port for Memory Cards/Rumble Paks and your fingers are pretty constrained when wrapped around the thing to touch the shoulder buttons and triggers, etc.

It worked on the original because you didn't grip it the same way and it was curved around your pistol grip. On this controller, the expansion port means you can only hold the controller with your pointer fingers tightly pointed downward.

>>4622996
It's 29.99 on the site, but all the kickstarter backers are getting coupons for 10 dollars off extra controllers.

How is the build quality? Is the thing solidly constructed, or is it creaking and groaning all over the place.

daily retro fighters controller shill thread

yeah thats gonna be a no for me dawg

>>4623081
So you're gonna go buy a 100 dollar Hori, dog?

More power to your dumb ass.

>>4623039
No creaks or groans.
Plastic feels much cheaper than the original N64's plastic feels, but ultimately, I don't think it's any thinner or anything.

Build quality is pretty close to perfect. I think the D-Pad may be questionable as well as the little latch that releases memory cards/rumble paks.

>>4623081
I'm literally a kickstarter backer just telling people whether or not this is worth it.

I wouldn't shill a 20 dollar controller for a dead console.

>>4623089
>D-Pad may be questionable as well as the little latch that releases memory cards/rumble paks

Both not that big of a deal to me, since the D pad mostly goes unused, and I'll likely just stick a memory card in it, and leave it. Just ordered mine last week, so it sounds like I'll have to wait until May to get it when the second batch ships.

I'll chime in.
Got mine yesterday.

The controller is REALLY FUCKING CRAMPED BECAUSE THEY PUT THE PORT FOR THE RUMBLE PAK LITERALLY RIGHT ON THE BACK OF THE CONTROLLER

SO YOUR FINGERS ARE STUCK IN A LOOP

>>4623136
My wife has smaller hands so this isn't an issue for her.

>>4623148
My son's wife doesn't mind it at all, but honestly, my hands are cramped.

>>4623150
>son's wife

>>4623173
what

>>4623014
>all those non-PS controllers with asymmetric sticks
it's like you want to be annoyed the entire time you're playing

>>4623014
Playstation's analog stick placement is trash.

>>4623187
wife's son is a meme so probably caught anon off-guard

>>4623205
what are you talking about

>>4623237
Oh god.

I literally meant my son's wife, as in, my daughter in law.

>>4623239
i cant use a gamepad that doesnt have the sticks in a mirrored position

>>4623148

Also my my son's wife small brother doesn't mind neither.

Both of them say it's pretty good.

>>4622991
>>4623000
>A and B buttons that fucking low, away from the Cs, and not even properly aligned
I don't have to even hold the controller to know it's a load of ass

>>4623329
my my my, son

>>4623345
Dude B and A are misaligned from the C buttons, it's not like a Sega controller. Check your 64

>>4623278
Your weird OCD quirk is not the fault of the controller

>>4622984
FUCK YOU AND YOUR COMPANY!

>>4623402
They're bigger and slightly apart but not misaligned, you can even see it in >>4623000 you falsifying piece of maggot shit. Look at the retro fighter and how deviated the B button is on it compared to the actual N64 controller

>>4623372
yes

>>4622984
My son's wife loves xers.

>>4622984
wow. this totally doesn't sound like a shameless advertisement. totally not.

get fucked, you scamming asshole.

>>4622984
Moving the A B buttons was fucking retarded.

>>4623014
That controller pak slot placement on that Kickstarter controller looks really bad.

>>4623738
Awesome

>>4623000
>>4622984
>fails at creating an actual comfortable controller
Damn. They had like 3 decades of inventions to build on? How did they fail that hard?

This is the exact same mistake that Sega made with the Dreamcast, they too the Saturn 3D Pad and fucked it up by adding the oversized VMU port right dab in the middle.

>>4623240
the concept you had sex and had a child is beyond most people here

>>4625535
No mistakes, just happy accidents

this controller fucking blows

>>4622984
does anyone know if it's going to stay $30 or is that just the pre-order price?

>>4623136
I have really tiny hands so it doesn't bother me, but my first thought was "this thing probably sucks if you actually have large hands" since it fit too well in my hands.

>>4629471
IIRC I think $30 is the normal price. People who got the kickstarter are apparently getting a coupon code for each controller they backed for getting it at the KS price ($20).

desu i think it should be sold at the KS price given the quality but w/e

>>4629929
Hmm this is a great price. I just ordered 2 of these controllers, really excited about it. I just can't believe the quality for the price, I bet these are going to sell out quickly and be worth a lot more money soon. I'm stocking up!

>>4631024
i can't tell if this is an actual serious post, a shill post, or an "ironic" pretending to shill as a joke post, I hate this website for doing this to me

OP here.

I have stopped using the controller.

The sensitivity is off and it overall just doesn't feel high quality.

It's terrible, just like every other 3rd party N64 controller.

Steelstick is the way to go at the moment.

>>4632497
HOOOOLY SHIT THAT OFFSET TO THE RIGHT

>>4632497
>Steelstick is the way to go at the moment.
The real way to go is to finally just box up these fucking consoles for your kids to enjoy one day and play games on PC.

>>4632572
>n64 emulation
No fucking thanks and I primarily emulate.

>>4632572
>The real way to go is to finally just box up these fucking consoles for your kids to enjoy one day and play games on PC.
It takes talent to be this stupid.

>>4632497
Kitsch-Bent gears and stick are great too.
