Official Nintendo 64 Black Controller (N64)

Product Information

For Raspberry Pi 0-3, a bespoke SDL hint is used to scale a low resolution window up to full screen using the Pi's GPU. First off, it’s a little more compact than the Brawler64 and has a more rounded shape making it feel a little smaller in the hand. The buttons are also a lot closer together which allows for easier control when playing those fighting games. Unlike the Brawler64, there is no turbo button on the Admiral so no speed ups can be found here.

First, let’s talk about that wireless functionality. It utilizes a receiver that you plug into the N64 console itself which also encompasses the memory card slot that you would usually find within the controller itself. The wireless connectivity is pretty flawless due to it being based on 2.4GHz tech and it’ll certainly reach wherever you are in the room. If you want the traditional look and feel of the official N64 controller of old, the iNNEXT Classic Wired Controller could be the exact model for you. As you can see from the product image above, it has the exact layout of the official N64 controller, making it a perfect replacement. The wireless functionality uses a similar method to that of the Brawler64 with an adapter being inserted in the N64 console. This then allows you to hook your Admiral up and the indication light at the bottom alerts you of the current status. Again, there’s no lag while playing wirelessly which is something that would impact control-intensive titles like Diddy Kong racing.

The N64 controller for Switch, unsurprisingly, bears a striking resemblance to the pad of old. The colored buttons juxtapose nicely against the slate grey controller, and its form factor, while certainly strange, has a unique charm to it. a b "Nintendo's N64 Pad - What's Inside?". NFG World. October 21, 2008 . Retrieved January 6, 2011. The controller also has vibration support and, much like the N64's Rumble Pak add-on, will work for certain N64 titles on Switch like Starfox 64. The functionality is a step above what we'd normally expect from these controller re-releases, but we're happy Nintendo went above and beyond to include one of the N64 controller's most unique features for its time.

Nintendo of America's head designer, Lance Barr, said that the design studies revealed that "most games use a few buttons for most of the main controls, such as jumping and shooting, or accelerating and braking. That's why the A and B Buttons are placed for easiest access on the new controller and why they are larger than the other buttons. They're the buttons that get high traffic." [4] :12The reason why we’ve included this controller even though that it is almost identical to that of the wireless version is that in our opinion, it trumps that of most other controllers manufactured by other companies.
