Best Controller for N64 Emulation that isn't..

[KDub]

Those MakoPads are garbage IMO

Wouldn't there be enough buttons on most modern controllers to set the face buttons to the C and then all the triggers to everything else you need?

If someone is in Japan, the Hori Minipads are not to expensive. I have five of them because I got them for $30ish a pop with shipping (since we still play N64 games a fair amount in my house).

Did I sell you those? If so... I gave you damn good deals. I know I sold a bunch in the $30-40 range.

They were actually pretty hard to find. I only got them because I used to go to various Hard-Offs once or twice every weekday before work and during breaks. I was lucky, in a sense, that I worked all over the place and had a way to get to multiple Hard-Offs in a week. Maybe I would find an average of one Mini-pad a month, which really is not often considering how much I shopped. Outside of lucking out at pawn shops, which I was sort of doing, they almost always cost MORE than $30 in Japan.

Nope, you did sell me the CIB Core Grafx though.

What do you dislike about the stock N64 controller?

Yeah, the GameCube controller works alright for replacing an N64 controller so anything else that generation or later would also work alright.

Use the dualshock, but calibrate it so it has a decent deadzone. That way it will be impossible to make mistakes.

You mentioned the Saturn 3d pad, and honestly I think that would work wonders for n64 games.

A = A
X = B
B = C Down
C = C Right
Y = C Left
Z = C Up
L = Z
R = R

You only lose one button from the 64 (L), and that's hardly ever used anyway.

It wouldn't be perfect, but it seems like it'd be damn close.

Yea, that's what i was thinking. About $35 shipped to me from eBay + Saturn adapter.

Good idea.

This!

I just thought of something i already have that would work almost perfectly for Zelda games.. Wii mote-Nunchcuk! The only thing that would be slightly awkward would be using C on the Nunchcuk for R (raise shelid and menu right).
