Quick question WHY THE forget DO YOU WANT A USB CONTROLLER WITH ONE STICK

It's made for mostly playing N64 games on the PC.

N64 games...?

N64 games...?

Do you know what a Nintendo 64 is.
Think of Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask for a minute.

N64 games...?

even that doesn't make any sense because the n64 controller is a horrific piece of stuff designed for people with 3 hands. I can't see why you would want to emulate that part of the experience unless you're into BDSM.

Just buy a USB controller. Much simpler, probably cheaper and Waay more compatible if it has 2 sticks.

Ask Nintendo why they made it like that then..?
EDIT: Nintendo 64's games don't use 2 joysticks.

[Megaguy2]

Then set up the emulator so you only use one!

I was suggesting N64 games as a reason to buy the controller, genius

As someone who has tried to play an N64 game with many different controllers, let me tell you it is not a fun experience (for me and clearly other people as well) without the real deal

What do you need 2 sticks for anyway? Left stick for movement and buttons for everything else...or...don't tell me you're using a controller to play FPS games on a PC?

[Megaguy2]

I don't but some may want to for whatever reason.
Consider a classic controller and a USB adaptor. I have one of these and it works fine, especially to emulate the many n64 games I own.

The N64 games never make you change the handle you're holding, When used with emulators, its basically like an SNES, NES + N64 controller all put in a blender. I can just ignore the middle stick if i want to play the SNES or NES titles.

Besides, it has the loving Nintendo D-pad on it. My gamepad has a floaty ass Xbox 360 piece of stuff on it. It is unresponsive as hell and its an even bigger hell to play N64 games on it since i have to map the C buttons to another thumbstick making the ocarina in Loz:oot the hardest part of the game.

EDIT: Oh an also, try to loving play Goldeneye with a 360 controller. It is hell.

Know what else does all these things? The classic controller.

Does it plug into a PC? No.

[BlockoCrafter]

Does it plug into a PC? No.

Nor does the original N64 controller, but at least you can get a free driver to connect your Wii Remote to your PC.
