This time I might pull the plug.

Coming 2024.

So 2025, huh?

And late 2025 by the time your unit ships.

That controller has an 8BitDo logo on it. Two-handed N64 controller from 8BitDo soon?

I put the image in paint.net and increased the exposure, the results of which you can see here. Looks like the 8BitDo Ultimate Controller, but with N64 buttons. The analogue stick has an octogonal gate with a circular pattern on the cap, much like the GameCube controller's left stick. Now I'm wishing that 8BitDo would make a GameCube-like controller with hall effect sticks.

Oh no. I really like 8bitDo and have bought a few things from them. But the Nintendo 64 controller stick from 8bitDo is not good. That's a shame, being such a fundamental part of the N64 experience, I thought Analogue would go the extra mile with the controller. I guess they count on people using the controller ports.

Has 8BitDo made a stick like this before? I see that they've made a controller like the N64's before, but that's not the same kind of stick as this. This is like a GameCube controller's stick, which is really good. It's true that 8BitDo isn't really known for their sticks, though, so hopefully they pull through.

I got their N64 Mod Kit, and I had really high expectations. But the stick feels more like the cheap GameCube stick replacements for Nintendo 64 controllers you can get on eBay. It's definitely not the same as a Nintendo 64 controller. Hopefully this'll be better!

[-] PastaRhythm@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Oh, I see. 8BitDo really isn't known for their analog sticks, unfortunately. Hopefully this one is better.

As an owner of the Ultimate, I'd really hope Analogue changed this controller profoundly, because as it currently exists it's not worth half it's price.

Ouch, right in the wallet!
