Classic N64 Controller, Wired USB PC Gamepad for Windows PC, macOS (Gray) | (Plug and Play), Compatible with Project 64, OpenEmu Emulators, Linux

Update:I found the controller configuration file for RetroArch (using the mupen64 plus core (emulator)). The button values for the c buttons did have a mixup. I used Windows USB controller setup to find which c button mapped to which value. Windows shows values 1-13, but the configuration file starts with 0, so just subtract 1 from what Windows shows you to get the value you should put into the configuration file. Here's my update. The old settings are commented out with the # sign at the front:input_r_x_plus_btn = "8"input_r_x_minus_btn = "3"input_r_y_plus_btn = "0"input_r_y_minus_btn = "9"#input_r_x_plus_btn = "9"#input_r_x_minus_btn = "3"#input_r_y_plus_btn = "0"#input_r_y_minus_btn = "8"The file I changed waspath\to\install_directory\RetroArch_N64_Emulator\RetroArch\autoconfig\xinput\Retro-Bit Tribute64 - USB (D-Input).cfgThis was difficult to figure out, but I also haven't tried it on any other emulator. It's probably a software problem, not a hardware problem. I hope this helps other people who run into this situation.Old review:The left/down c buttons or the right/up c buttons are mixed, depending on how you have it configured. For example, if I have the default configuration:C Right: C buttons X+C Left: C buttons X-C Down: C buttons Y+C Up: C buttons Y-Then C left and C down are correct. But C Up acts as C Right and vice versa. If I switch the axes (C right/left on the Y axis, C down/up on the X axis) the problem is reversed: C up/right are correct, but C down acts as C left and vice versa.So, games are playable, but very confusing. Can I have a replacement controller?The positives:The joystick feels very nice, very much like a real nintendo 64 controller. The other buttons are nice and responsive. It was easy to configure. No complaints beyond the c buttons being mixed up. I would give this controller 5 stars without that problem.

This is a perfect recreation for the N64 controller for use with the Project64 emulator in Windows 10. I did have to do a power cycle on my PC after it was recognized by the computer to be recognized by Project64. After that, I did have to map the buttons when I first got it recognized in the emulator. Once mapped, it works like a charm. The buttons are smooth and responsive. The analog stick looks like it is threaded on to the base or something, so I don't know if that will break off, but there is a visible gap between the base and the stick. In a couple hours of playing, it hasn't been a problem yet though. I love having a native feel for playing emulated n64 games rather than a separate type controller. It just feels right.

Better wuality than I expected

I have yet to plug them in to my pi but first impressive the quality blows me away for the price. Did not expect the buttons to feel so original

Feels authentic, though a little lighter and the buttons are significantly more rigid and "hard plastic-y" feeling. You'll know what I mean if you compare this to an original N64 controller. That said, for 15 bucks, this is great value. It feels just like playing N64 on a high quality but still noticeably third party controller. You know the one, its what your mom bought you from KMart, meaning well. It's what you'd make your little brother use and he would blame the controller when he lost at Smash but after trading controllers you still won. That controller. We all had one back in the day.For people having issues getting this to work, here's my experience with Project64 on latest Win10 build - I first plugged it in using a non-active USB extension cable, the PC saw the controller but I don't think the connection was the greatest. Project64 did not see the controller, guessing the controller didn't like the extension (USB connections greater than 15 feet on non-active cables are pretty unreliable). Plugged it directly in to the PC, everything works great. After the initial driver install which Windows did on its own, no input from me required, I put it back on the extension cable and it worked fine. Plug and play with Project64 is a pretty accurate though I did still have to go into the controller config and map all the buttons, but after that everything worked great. Recommend using an active USB extension if you need one. BlueRigger sells some quality active USB extension cables.

Using these with OpenEmu games on my Mac with my kids. They work great, really easy to map the buttons. We love them! Also, after using them for couple months, there was a problem with one of the little joysticks. After contacting the seller, they sent us a new one right away, which we appreciate a lot! Definitely recommended!

This hardware worked flawlessly for about one whole week on a MacBook Pro with OpenEmu as an emulator. Six or seven days later, though, it started to occasionally tweak to the right. Within another day, the controller is now randomly and frequently sending non-existent joystick signals to the right. Upon inspection, the joystick's plastic had worn itself into a fine powder that presumably worked its way inside the controller and has messed up the circuitry within. It got progressively worse, to the point of being almost unusable. Now I have to spend the time & effort to attempt to open and clean the controller after only a single week of use.

Works well enough. The buttons are bit stiffer than the original, and the color is slightly darker than the original N64 controller, but it can work with Project64. For some reason, however, some of the buttons need to be rebinded mid-game in Project64. You sometimes need to bind a button to something else and then rebind the button to the correct one in order to get them to register in-game. It's an odd quirk, but it can still work. Much better deal than Nintendo's official $74 N64 controller.

Perfect n64 controler just as i remember growing up using it on my mac and love it the feel and respons is Perfect ty I will consider buying more products from you Canada

Works fine after mapping but analogue stick is not analogue. Also specs say it’s Grey and I received White

The analog stick has perfect "pressure" or "resistance" when moving it to the left, but when moving it to the right, it has barely ANY, which means just a small touch and the joystick goes all the way to the right! This makes playing games rather unbearable unfortunately. There's also quite a lot of rattle noises, so the build quality is not very tight. it was cheap, sure, but I will never use it the way it is, so what's the point?

Bought this hoping to have a more nostalgic experience playing N64 Emulator games, but the controller constantly drops connection. Terrible product, flimsy craft, was not worth a cent.

I love being able to play N64 games on my pc!
