I agree, That Bluetooth dongle is amazing! I also got two. I wanted to get 4 but I read that the N64 may or may not have a hard time pushing that much power to all 4 receivers. I think it depends on the state of your power supply. Great video!
I love the n64 I use my wii for the games cheaper that way plus I can use gamecube controller for the n64 games
link for everdrive pre loaded with nes snes games n64 games sd card and the cartridge to buy ?
Hey madlilpixel have u had any issues with the blueretro receiver interfering with your pixel fx hdmi mod. I was wondering cause I'm seeing pepole having issues
I love the N64 controller It’s so good
The N64 was and controller was something you had to be alive at the time for to appreciate. Just walking around in Mario 64 with the analog stick was mind blowing. Never did you think you could have that much control in a video game. It single handedly launched the modern way of how a 3D game should feel.
Yup, Mario and wave race blew my mind as a kid
To me it is the complete opposite. I absolutely loved the SNES, but the N64 had no soul to me. Nothing about it felt right, from the library of games (especially the lack of RPGs) to the controller I could never get used to. While I appreciated the Gamecube and Wii U, for me it took until the Switch to experience that same completeness that the SNES offered.
@@gvanderlee2703 agree. But Bond and Starfox were only good games. Other than that SNES
Yeah but I still prefer the Gamecube controller.
A real talk
It's so wonderful to be able to mix new and old tech like this!
All functionality preserved with this dongle when using the N64 controller for Switch, AND it has its own internal save? Beautiful.
N64 had a ton of bangers. I played Ocarina of Time and Goldeneye to death. All my friends in my neighborhood in high school would come over just to play Goldeneye multiplayer and eventually Perfect Dark when that came out lol
For me, who loves wireless controls, blurretro is the best thing that has happened to retrogaming lately. I made an internal blurretro mod for my N64 with an ESP32 chip and I also use an N64 controller from NSO. I also made the Bluretro bluetooth mod to my Gamecube, NES Retrousb AVS, 3DO, Atari Jaguar, PC Engine DUO and PS1.
It's nice to see you do a review on a product you like! The last few have been doozies.
You know, I agree with you about the controller. NO ONE complained about it in the late 90s. The internet changed that perspective.
The internet certainly played a part, but a few other things occurred or showed up that contributed to its decayed reputation.
The arrival of the Dualshock version of the Playstation controller showed that adding padding is honestly a good idea. Especially after what happened with Mario Party 1, which accidentally made people begin to slowly turn against that controller. The arrival of the significantly more comfortable GCN controller did a number on the perception once had with Nintendo's official N64 controller design. Oh, and there's the fact that the analog stick was made of plastic that wasn't study enough.
For 3d games its great, for 2d it sucks especially fighting games. I certainly did complain about it back in 1997
@@guyverjay1289 but it has a d pad for those
@@DragonMasterSubo - i AM talking about the D-Pad...its woeful
It's a Wavebird for the N64 now
That combination of translucent orange and solid black looks amazing. Makes me want to get an N64 and give it the same treatment.
The lead up to N64 launch was the most hype. I remember begging my parents to bring me o Blockbuster Video because they were the first place to have demo units with Mario 64. I still haven't been able to get the N64 Switch controller but I'll keep trying. Then this adapter will be bought immediately.
I love the retro gaming aftermarket which includes new homebrew games, clone systems, controllers, and cart adapters. I often watch this channel to keep up with new aftermarket products. I click on your videos when they come up in the recommendations.
I always loved the 64 controller also. Most people would think you’d have to move your grips around during gameplay to play anything. Nintendo had you covered for whatever game you choose, they had a control configuration for that.
Exactly! I don't recall a single game where you had to switch grips mid-game
I’m looking forward to this! I have a N64 with a PixelFX N64Digital HDMI chip, Everdrive X7 and I currently use wireless Brawler controllers. I have 2 of the official NSO N64 Bluetooth controllers, so I just picked a few of these up!
Fantastic! I LOVE it! Thank you!
This is awesome! Didn’t know this exist! Love the switch n64 controller and to be able to play on the original n64 now, well that’s just awesome!
My N64 setup: HDMI N64Digital, Bluetooth receiver as shown with official NSO controller, Everdrive, Expansion Pak = pure bliss. The N64 was the first console I was truly hyped about on release. I still remember the day when my father came home for my bday with a huge Toys R Us bag. I played Super Mario 64 for the whole evening it was great. I never found the controller to be strange or uncomfortable (except when it chewed the palm of my hand playing Mario Party). I wore fingerless gloves after that for future sessions.
The memory pak and rumble features seem to have problems on this Bluetooth adapter when used with an N64 modded with HDMI out.
It got the RGB mod on mine,wish I had the HDMI mod. I use the RGB mod with the HD retrovision Super Nintendo component cables and they work on the Nintendo 64 if you have the RGB mod so I still play on a 480p TV. You definitely right though that ever drive is a must have even though I had a lot of the games all ready for my 64 around 80. That ever drive the oh my God so many games that I never got to play. It's definitely worth it. I got the jungle green one and a jungle green controller to match it, I have the regular N64 one and I have the retrovision Xbox one style remake of the 64 controller. Fit's in your hand like an Xbox s type controller. Love it,great setup.
Hey, I just got the N64 Digital installed in my N64. It's awesome, but I have a question, does your setup flicker every now and again?
It happens when I turn on the console, reset, and when I'm playing Resident Evil 2.
I'm thinking that the flickering is the resolution change, but I want to be sure before I email Stone Age Gamer.
Is this confirmed? I have N64Digital and want to buy blurerto and the NSO.
N64 forever, the best retro console of all time!
Amen to that! All hail the N64!
N64 was revolutionary at the time, it doesn't matter what the haters say. The problem is, you had to have been there to understand it. It was kind of like when online play for consoles first started.
Revolutionary how? Low rez games, cartridge base, couldn't even hold that much data making games like Re2 look an sound like crap but do go on
@mdkgod43 the PS1 didn't have analog sticks at launch. The N64 DID... and demonstrated its usefulness quite well
My Girlfriends cousins had an N64 back in the late 90's. It was a great Console.
I still have my N64 from 1996. My son and I have been playing thru Super Mario 64 this weekend, and I'm surprised how much fun it still is. But it's more fun with a BlueRetro adapter and modern wireless controller.
@1:30 shots fired at RGT85 lol .. naw I kid I kid .. all in good fun ..
Seriously though! I died laughing when I realized RGT genuinely held it like that. I thought he was gonna correct himself eventually but nope! Glad his editor called him out lmao
That's pretty much an instant buy for me! Great video.
That N64 is Awesome!!!!
It was awesome and so wasn't the PS1.
@@sheenaQuarto83 I’m just commenting on the color. I prefer the Ps1 any day
@Lord Hades neither system was good imo, 5th gen was pretty garbage imo outside of a few titles. PS1 had some great 2D games though, but overall it was very early 3d gaming and most of the games don't hold up today. Imo SNES and GameCube are WAY better than the N64
@@lordhades9945 Same here, the PS1 and PS2 were the kings of the 5th and 6th Generations of Gaming.
@@Pridetoons Agreed!
I’ve been doing my own upgrade this month. So far I’ve got 3x retrobit tribute 64 wireless, expansion pak, everdrive 64 x7 and I am waiting for the retrotink x5 pro to be delivered.
I love N64 I remember getting it for Christmas and my brother and I got the atomic purple controller as well. The games were great and we were big wrestling fans so the WCW and WWF games were ahead of their time!!!
Great video always good stuff to bad some of the accessories are sold out. Like the Bluetooth receiver for the controller.
I totally forgot I ordered these. As I was watching your video, I got an alert that they arrived in the mail, and it wasn't until I opened the package that I realized that this is what I ordered. I blame old age. At least yours arrived not crushed, unlike mine...
Looks cool ❤
love the controller too!
One of my favorite systems back in the day got it on day one
Like yourself, I paired an NSO N64 controller with the Retrotime BT adapter and I love it! For some games I still prefer using my original Hori N64 controller but I’m getting used to this.
this is similar to something i recently did, i bought nintendo's SNES switch controller and i bought 8bitdo's retro receiver and i started using that to play on my original snes because the dpads on my original are no good; one is ripped the other was no longer springing back and i replaced them with new pads but the diagonals were terrible SO i figured i'd try out the wireless option and its so good i dont notice any input lag diagonals are great controller feels like a snes controller should.
the perfect combo
Damn! Sold out on Castlemania and Stone Age.
I just got shipping notification for mine! FYI, it’s my favourite console ❤I love the controller too!
Great ! Now I need to finally get me a n64….or wait for the MiSter version
Have all these 😎
I went with Retrobit's Tribute64 Wireless controllers. Feels less cheap and more comfortable.
I also prefer 2.4ghz over Bluetooth.
This is my preference as well. I love the N64, but not the official controller. The Tribute64 Wireless improves on it.
I swear some of you ppl are so determined to indirectly say "meh, I don't like the original n64 controller look and feel"....this video is for ppl who want the AUTHENTIC experience as close as possible so 3rd party controllers seem silly when you can play with "intended" controller
I loved it now I’m an adult my hands are two big to be comfortable on that… weirdly I have to keep one my hdmi n64’s mod menu thing won’t open without it.
I've been doing this a while with the Intec Gaming adapter you showed off in a previous vid. 👀
I like these modern controllers that are replicas of the original that can play wireless, I've got one for my Sega Saturn
Picked up a couple Brawler64s a couple years back and haven't missed the original N64 controller at all since, but the combo of the Blueretro dongle/NSO 64 controller is mighty tempting.
Ive seen and heard people more than praise the brawler64 but litterly on my first day of getting one ,(the smoke gray one to be exact) and immediately had connection problems constantly. So i left it alone for a year and used it just barley recently and same issues and stick drift when yet i didnt even use the thing unlike my real n64 controller. Just sucks cus idk if either my controller was faulty or if there all this crap and no one admits it lol
i think that the original controller is the very best too, having 3 grips is what makes it unique and special and represents a whole era
Might have to pick this up down the line if I ever want an official wireless N64 controller. I do have a bunch of oem N64 controllers with great sticks. And I also have a bunch of kitsch replacement parts, prob to last me more than several years lol
I used to be good at Goldeneye but since getting an n64 recently, the controller is difficult to get used to, especially when using the dpad in conjunction with the analog stick.
I personally loved the N64 controller design. It was great for me.
Somehow , unbeknownst to me I never heard of the forever pak that was actually the main show for me here today! I bought one after watching!
I literally just played Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage last night. That’s a N64 RPG
Goldeneye and 1080 were two of the big ones I remember playing in the house at college.
Saw the N64 Bluetooth dongle and I may have to buy a few myself. If the 8bitdo NES30 controller can be paired to it I could put mine to use again.
I'm not really a fan of the N64, but having a wireless controller might change all that.
I also love the N64 controller. It's like putting on a glove.
My N64 and gamecube are my top played consoles, my N64 is special because Tom Green signed it 😝 the everdrive is a MUST!
Playing mods or games that have been heavily optimized (SM64 playing at 60fps on console) easily makes this one of the most replay-able consoles!
Are you going to do the stick test like you did for third party pads? That really tells the story. I just got one today.
The built in Memory Pak alone is a huge selling point.
I love that controller too
Bro! We got Majoras Mask. And the Controller can look complicated but it worked perfectly.
This is dope! I was hoping for something like thus. I got 2 n64 wireless controllers. Did they make something like this for snes for the wireless snes controllers?
you can grab the 8bitdo retro receiver for snes, it is basically the same thing for snes and supports nso controllers...
I need that!
Can you do a review on the new 8bitdo modkit that can be used with original stick or with their new hall effect joystick when it comes out please?
Okay I am just halfway through with this video of yours and I actually never really enjoyed the N64 controller because initially I had no clue how to handle 3D games and returned to SNES and MegaDrive and later on we played so much Mario Party our controllers always ended up having floppy sticks.
That "BT dongle" for the NSO controller however, the stick mods and Everdrive? Pair it up with a HDMI mod and I could easily see myself playing this all day long.
Well not all day long but I know I played the damn out of Snowboard Kids, Pokémon Stadium 1+2 and Mario Tennis.
Where would I get ahold of the wireless 64 controllers? they look awesome - I love N64 controllers like you.
Absolutely awesome Bluetooth adapter. 😇
I was pretty excited about the NSO controllers until I saw the input lag results, 16ms is way too much for retro games. Would love to see this one tested.
Ew that's not good
I'm with you on the controller. N64 and SNES are my favorites.
SNES controller is pretty terrific. First party N64 controller on the other hand is one of Nintendo's worst.
Along with the SNES controller; my current favorites are the Saturn Japanese gamepad, Saturn 3D gamepad, XBox 360, GCN (though that d-pad is bad), WiiU pro, Switch pro, and Xbox Series X.
It’s been so long since I’ve used a new N64 controller (1999?) that I really can’t tell if the analog stick is authentic or not, lol. Most of my memory with the controller is after it had long since had a lot of wear and tear.
We loved the N64 growing up. Fond memories of trying to figure out majoras mask and ocarina of time before you could look it up online. And I love and can't suggest Kitsch-Bent replacement parts enough. I've rebuilt so many joysticks with their parts it's great they have been out of stock a few times too
I love the Nintendo 64 controller. One of my favorite controller. The joystick is great and responsive but not durable.
Just got the dongle in the mail... Are you having any success with rumble when selecting "both" memory and rumble from the OTA interface?
I just got the grey adapter last week but now I need that N64 switch controller but idk if I’ll ever get one in retail price. Should I keep waiting for restock or whats a good resell price?
Are you using a stock N64 console? Also how's the emulation on the Everdrive cart? I've always wanted to try that, but haven't yet.
I would say i dislike the n64 on day one, but i would say i like a few games a decade later.
Some of that stuff improves the 64.
I remember the Rumble was strong on Starfox 64. Does the NSO controller feel like it has less rumble to it, or is it about the same?
I have the blueretro N64 adapter..and it feels laggy with the NSO N64 controller :(. It's random though. Most of the time it's perfect then out of nowhere I get like a .5 second delay on inputs for 10 or so seconds.
Also I don't have an everdrive or a way to do a controller test. Would you mind doing the controller test with the NSO controller and the new adapter?
Does the joystick of the NOS controller get loose like the original one?
Final Fantasy 7 for N64 would be nice. 😉
Where u get that orange and black shell for your n64?
2:23 ha ha ha floppy stick syndrome 🤣
I understand---- part of the experience is nostalgia --- and there's nothing wrong with that. I actually consider it part of the experience with retro games.
2:30 how are those stick replacements called so search then online?
store.kitsch-bent.com/ this is the maker of them and where I got mine. been using them for years. did a video specifically on them a long time ago.
@@Madlittlepixel thnx man!
The controller could’ve been better, it is part of the experience though, aside from that I love the N64 I love the experience of playing 3d games that are on a cartridge, from RE2 to Vigilante plus the other games that had ports on other consoles and the Nintendo exclusives were fun. I still enjoy the Cruisin series and the other staples of the Nintendo 64 Library such as Mario Kart, 007 etc
Paper Mario and Ogre Battle 64 were rpgs on the N64.
Never liked the controller but the game library is pretty good.
Lots of fun racing games, shooting games and platformers.
Come tax time I'm going bonkers on my N64. Recapping the system, ReN64 PSU replacement, RetroGem Shiny HDMI mod, BlueRetro adapter, modify my old MadKatz controller for Bluetooth (and restore the stick of course), and of course an EverDrive.
love me some 8bitdo stuff
I owned a couple 64's back in the day. I've never enjoyed emulating N64 because of all the points you made. Using a non N64 controller just ruins the experience somehow.
what display is that? do you use one of those fancy ultra HDMI thing?
This Orange N64 is soooo Beautiful i want to Sing the Peaches Song from Mario Bros xD
My favorite N64 color, orange and black. Its a Japanese exclusive.. Daiei N64. Sold only in Daiei stores as a limited edition in Japan. They estimate there was around 5-10,000 of them produced... no exact numbers... but its a little difficult to find them in perfect condition. I mostly see them faded or with weird sun damage. I paid probably too much for mine lol, but it was in fairly close to perfect condition so it was worth it to me.
@@Madlittlepixel do you would say its your Holy Grail of the Collection? ^^
I'm still waiting for 8bitdo to make a controller and adapter for the n64
I have a Brawler 64 which converts the madness to a symmetrical style. (LT snd RT are both Z)
i feel like the wii remote was an evolution of the n64's. hell, the nun chuck is literally the middle prong of the n64 with a better stick, and extra button. you turn the controller sideways or vertical for sports, aiming, motion, ect, and use the nunchuck for 3d games and other things that support analog movement. similar to switching your grip on the n64. thats how i see it atleast.I love the controller to death, but the sticks are super annoying to replace.
Where does he get those wonderful toys?
I still love the controller.
N64 still rocks 😊
My opinion of that controller began to sour after receiving a hand injury with the original Mario Party. Later on acquiring the significantly more comfortable GCN controller is what truly made me turn against the first party N64 controller. To this day, I'd rather use the Hori64 along with the Retro-Bit and 8bitdo offerings in this day and age. Especially as Nintendo was too lazy to add padding to the NSO version of the controller. One of the only rewasons I'd ever use the first party would be due to Goldeneye 007 and even then the controls there haven't aged in stellar fashion.
What is the monitor you are using @Madlittlepixel?
This is what I have been waiting for, if only Nintendo could supply a healthy stock of N64 wireless controllers.
N64 is so awesome. I just noticed the Wii nunchuck looks just like the middle stick portion of the N64. Just typical Nintendo if it's not broken don't fix it
I just got my adapter in today. Have some issues. No problem connecting controllers to it but it won’t “rumble”. Also, I can’t connect to the website for memory card formatting or controller mapping, etc. none of my computers will recognize the device. And yes, I followed the instructions. No controllers were connected. Frustrating. Anyone else have this problem? If so, is there a fix for it? Haven’t heard back from customer service yet.
As long as I want to play with an original N64 controller wireless, I just got so used to the RetroFighters Brawler controller that I can't justify the purchase of this. But I'm seriously considering getting one of these dongles with a NSO N64 controller to see if I end up liking it.
Just avoid using the NSO controller with Mario Party 1 and for good reason.
@@tidepoolclipper8657 I think that we all know why. 😅🫱🌪
There plenty of love for the n64.
