It's still a part of gaming history & its evolution, plus I think the display looks cool.Joints were TERRIBLE man.

The beautiful Southern California weather and golden sun was shinning on me today! I got all this for free. How? Well, a man was going to donate all his old electronics to Goodwill. Inside one of those boxes was this N64, five controllers and three games. I offered him money but he said I could have it for free since he just wanted it out of his garage. Dude was super cool for doing that and I hope he gets rewarded later for it.
Lol TURBO UNO you know the cat with the green controller coming in last in Mario Kart and the first to get pinned/eliminated in Royal Rumble on WM2000.
Back when I was a broke teenager I actually had 2 of those jump off controllers - we had a rule to pass those joints around so no one was stuck with a handicap. My cousins still clown me for buying them two decades later.
Yes.What are stacked slots? Like doing more moves with the same buttons?
Oh man, they’re THAT bad?
I’ll put that one somewhere else then. The guy had an OG one inside the box so 4 player games are still possible. Thanks for letting me know vood99
I remember a controversy from one of the early Mario Partys, you had to spin the analog stick in the palm of your hand and it was causing kids to bleed . I think Nintendo started sending out gloves if you requested them.Absolutely terrible. People want to hate on the OEM N64 controller but it was part of the overall experience and my brother and I found it easy to use and even now we can get back into it quite easily. Those jump offs were clunky and had terrible button feel.
I was quite lucky to get some OEM N64 controllers in 9/10 condition a few years back with their analog sticks intact.
Smash Bros, Mario Party and maybe some other games that had you use the analog stick exclusively or wiggle it violently were responsible for all the floppy/loose OEM controllers you see out there.

Speaking of controllers, did yall mess with 3rd party controllers?
Man, historically, I'm just not wasting time/money on non-licensed controllers.
I think the first "off-brand" controller I ever bought was 2 months ago.

Lots of fights, temper tantrums, crying spells, etc were caused by getting stuck with a 3rd party controller back in the day .
Nah bro, my pick up has nothing on yours. You’re always getting heat for the low-low.jelly TURBO UNO
Ahhh that makes sense. I’ve seen a few of them with the sticks loose and some totally missing.Smash Bros, Mario Party and maybe some other games that had you use the analog stick exclusively or wiggle it violently were responsible for all the floppy/loose OEM controllers you see out there.
