Nintendo in 2006 released the classic controller specifically as the definitive way to play nes/snes/n64 games
The definitive way to play NES are NES pads
I love itI use it almost every day with my mister
a... b... c stick! Omg I figured it out
>>12926332>heres your controller that you have to plug into another controller that you have to put AA batteries intoThanks, Nintendo. Impeccable design.
>>12926723>stick it into SNES miniThanks Nintendo!
>>12926723It sucks so fucking much and it's the main reason why I barely touch my Wii. I'm not a fan of motion controls with some exceptions, but having this fucking leach of a controller that is the Wii mote tied to my classic or pro controller is so retarded.
>>12926723AA batteries in a controller is the best option for wireless much easier to replace in the long run
>>12926745Pack of 4 double AAs costs around $6 nowadays. I'll take my chances with a built in rechargable that'll likely last a decade. My Vita is old as shit and still holds a charge.
>>12926528How do you connect it, praytell?
>>12926332It sucks but luckily they learned their lesson and made a Godlike controller for the next generation
>>12926332The pro one with the handles was really good. The only thing it was missing was clickable sticks.
>>12926754you can just by rechargeable AA batteries retard
>>12926332It's really dumb how these had pressure sensitive shoulder buttons, but also couldn't be used for gamecube games, and also go removed on the "pro" revision.>>12926723It honestly wasn't a bad system, just daisy-chaining off your Wii remotes. It kept third party controllers cheap and easy to set up.
>>12926946Have you never used rechargeable AAs? They stop holding a charge the same year you buy them, and they're not exactly cheap to replace.
>>12926723The only reason I'm upset they never made a N64 Mini is because I wanted an N64 controller that used the Wii remote connector
>>12926948>It's really dumb how these had pressure sensitive shoulder buttons, but also couldn't be used for gamecube games,with homebrew they can and they play pretty well on it
>>12926910Bluetooth for extra input lag
>>12926959Yeah. It's crazy how incomplete the Wii feels without CFW
>>12926952your opinion sounds outdated. now a 4 pack of nickel ones cost like $10 from ikea
>>12927032they probably were considering having it work with gamecube games at some point and thats why they made the triggers analogmaybe they already knew they would release a cut down version without the gc controller ports and disc support
>>12927035And they don't hold through many recharges. They start to drain incredibly quick after two months, so like I said, within a year you're replacing them entirely. I'd rather deal with a built in rechargeable that lasts a decade over buying batteries over and over.
>>12926952That hasn't been true since the 90s anon
>>12927061That's not true anymore than it is for built in batteries. When built in batteries stop holding charge it's much harder than just buying some new rechargeable batteries. Your argument is low IQ.
>>12926332>lower case buttons
>>12927125The hell it isn't. I picked up rechargeables for my kid's so they would stop asking for new batteries for their Quest controllers and they barely last longer than thirty minutes.
>not using duracell powercheckcouldnt be me
>>12926920I wish this design became the standard, at least for Nintendo... it was PERFECT.
>>12926723On a console with USB inputs.
>>12926362No.
>>12927480No it wasn't, the placement of the D-pad and buttons were so atrocious for most people's hands
>>12926754Buy in bulk. You can get a 100-pack of AAs on Amazon for $26.
Sorry, I can't stand the Z-button being anywhere but where it is on the original N64 controller. Feels fucking awful to use as a shoulder button.
>>12928029on the wii u port of mario 64 you can use the nunchuck and wiimote combo to play the game and it feels very goodthe wii era analog sticks make good replacements for the feel of n64
>>12927150no need to yell your inputs at the game.
>>12926939I hate that the pro one got rid of the analog triggers as well.
