What do /vr/ think about this?

why the fuck is it mint green, should be Nintendo gray

and if they were going for late 80s/early 90s neon green that's still totally the wrong shade

OP here
After more than 15 years of not playing nes I find the original rectangle controller digging in my sking under the first 10 minutes of play
I was wondering if anyone can confirm how does this solution feels?

Also my only explanation to why I cannot stand the original controller anymore is that my hands are definitly bigger of how they used to be when I was a child

The only exception was the NES Advantage, where it made sense as it was supposed to be like an arcade setup.

Aside from how tiny the GC dpad is and high the dpad is raised, that looks pretty nice. Thinking about it, I'm amazed that no one has created 3Dprinted parts to insert into the original ring, that'd allow a NES/SNES dpad to be used.

Also that there's no 3Dprinted top shells to replace TG16 & SMS with, that allow the use of Nintendo's dpad with their official controllers. Seems like there'd be some money to make from those wanting a better dpad and cannot find or afford one of Hori's NES based clone controllers.
