Retro Fighters N64 controller on Amazon pre order (worth clicking to see it)

[Lync]

I feel like I'm the only one who hated the N64 controller not because of the design itself but because of all of those God-forsaken colors.

How many good fighting games are on the N64?

None really. 2D or 3D, a decent fighting game is practically absent on the system.

Rakugakids usually gets thrown out there, but it's pretty clumsy.

If you've had your fill of the more dedicated fighters like VF, Tekken, DOA, - Flying Dragon 64 is worth a shot. What it lacks from its shallowness it makes up in its quirkiness.

You don't see much in the Tekken, Soulblade, Virtua Fighter variety but, aside from the obvious Smash Bros. you have Mace: The Dark Age, Mortal Kombat 4, Killer Instinct Gold, Bio F.R.E.A.K.S, and Fighters Destiny 1&2 which were interesting at least - if not excellent. There were also a TON of good wrestling games for the N64, and I think this controller would be great for 3D platformers too.

So I just took the plunge and ordered one. I'll let you guys know what I think... might even do a video.

very nice looking, but a bit expensive for me...
are there any other joysticks apart from the original ones?

For N64? Plenty but the only one worth a damn is the Hori made ones and they go for $100+

There was actually one other 3rd Party N64 Controller worth a damn, and that was this one. They're roughly $20 apiece on eBay. Shame that most of the N64 controllers these days, both 1st and 3rd party are complete trash.

That looks like interact kinda trash. Their controllers fell apart in my experience. Never owned a N64 one. Had some Gamecube & Xbox ones and they were maybe worse than Madcatz.
