Top load vs. regular NES

[Ziggy]

The top loader NES is pretty ugly if you ask me, especially with a huge NES cart sticking out of it. Oh yeah, and those dog bone controllers look horrible too. I never held one before, but I'm sure they can't feel too nice either.

I have bent pins back, but it only works once or twice. Racket, you should start stocking 72 pins...wink wink nudge nudge say no more.

The dog bone controller is actually comfortable - in a very SNES way. I still prefer the original.

72 pins on Ebay are dirt cheap. After replacing mine I had no more blinking or screwing around with the cartridge when inserted into the machine.
