In the event that Banjo-Tooie gets added to NSO, the Joystick tilt may actually be an issue since multiple Jiggies require tiptoeing (if you’re playing casually at least).
@@joshuagrahambrown Absolutely! It feels very, very close to the original in the NSO N64 service, and it calibrates just like the original on emulators. This should be easy for them to fix, at least if they've recognized the issue.
To answer the question at the end: Yes, I think they will. It's actually more likely that they make a bluetooth Gamecube Controller than a Gamecube Online app, since they still manufacture wired Gamecube Controllers, so most of the manufacturing can be reused from those. They just have to lightly redesign the circuit board to accommodate a battery, as well as add the missing ZL, Home, Minus and Capture buttons. A Gamecube Online app is unlikely because even just 10 games would probably be about 15GB, which almost fills the Switch's built-in storage. Unless they do some compression, but that would likely add decompression loading times that would oppose the "instant access" philosophy of NSO.
@@Iristallite Yeah, that's what I was going to suggest, but at that point they might as well just charge money for them as rereleases, rather than as an NSO service.
Thanks for checking out this combo. This is 90% the reason why I want a couple of these NSO controllers. A shame they are way off calibration and seem a bit laggy. Hopefully that’s mostly the adapters fault. Hoping for an adapter which takes care of memory paks as well. Micro SD slot and button combos to cycle through slots of packs or something like that. And button combo to switch between mem pak. and rumble. Heck why not have a transfer pak mode while we’re at it😂
you should try the blueretro adapter. its aDIY thing but pretty simple, and the stick works very close to an original N64 controller. and you dont need an actual rumble pack for the rumble to work
It’d be sick if Nintendo themselves made adapters like this one that were more accurate but I would assume they would be pricey compared to some third party adapter
Wait a minute. Does the IntecGaming adapter also work with the Hyperkin Admiral or the recent Retro Fighters Bluetooth Brawler 64 (designed for Nintendo Switch and its N64 for NSO app)? I have a Hyperkin Admiral, but I broke the N64 receiver not too long ago, and my Admiral became useless outside of PC and Brook Wingman adapter use.
The rumble issue is really too bad. Hopefully they will update the adapter firmware to fix it, unless its a hardware limitation of the adapter. Also I wish there was no need for a rumble pak for it to work, maybe if they made a new version they could add a switch on the adapter to enable rumble. The analog stick sensitivity might also be an issue with going slowly or trying to go at a certain angle (between 2 of the 8 directions). Otherwise I guess its still a great way to play a real N64. Would be nice to see a comparison with those third party controllers especially wireless ones.
1:48 this is the only one I could find. Is there any other adapters out there? I kind of want to plug my titan 2 into an N64 so I can try using a flight stick, just for the fun of it. Or DK bongos. Things like that.
05:04 please someone, I have no idea what I'm looking at. How is there a horse in Hyrule Field?? And why does the map look like THAT? I don't remember these things at all.
@@monkeygameplay5455, they're not talking about Epona. They're talking about the other horse that's running about. And that's definitely Hyrule Field shown, not Lon Lon Ranch.
It looks like he's playing the SpaceWorld '97 Experience romhack that came out last year (highly recommend trying by the way). It's an extensive romhack that tries to recreate a beta version of the game, specifically a public demo that was shown off at the SpaceWorld event in 1997, hence the name. A ton of work went into it and you even get to play some completely unique dungeons that didn't make it into the final game!
Strange question, but is there any way to adjust the stick sensitivity on Wii U? I am using my NSO N64 controller for Wii U N64 games. It works great but the stick does seem too sensitive as you mentioned here, as in you reach a full tilt before the stick hits the gate.

hearting your own comment? 🤨

this is probably just a problem with the adapter
It isn't a problem with the controller, it's just the adapter. They obviously need to update the firmware.
@@DisneyTLK110 I hope you’re right, that would at least mean that it’s an issue that CAN be fixed.

Maybe they would have to be downloaded individually?

6:02 you don’t understand how relatable this is 😂
Honestly, your thoughts about Switch Online at the beginning are basically my thoughts as well.

Wow, that unnuanced rumble. Seems like the controller would be rumbling more often than not.
2:37 *_Very Nice!_* -Borat
TLDW: You need a 3rd party adapter that is made to support all kinds of bluetooth controllers. The controls also dont get bound properly.

Wake up, new Ak video
Can we use the connector part to add USEFUL pokemon to Stadium?
great video! loved it!

Maybe it's the spaceworld demo build that got leaked recently?
ranch lon lon don't you remember that good ol' horse named EPONA ?

The map and rupee counter are also different if you look closely.

Does the adapter work with the Transfer Pak as well? Thanks.
Murasame Castle is in copyright hell? I didn't know that
He said those AREN'T stuck in copyright hell, I think...
After all Murasame Castle was released on virtual consoles right?
Can you use more than one controller with each additional dongle?
Nintendo is getting grilled in live chat rn over Taiwan and I have no idea why
The software update BT_Writer_v17.04_v100172.exe seems to be down. Everytime I try to download, I only get the .pdf file NOT the .exe file... 🙁
i think ima wait for a better adaptor with better anolog mapping, because it would feel a bit weird for me with a square gate
Can you poach the stick and connect it to an original N64 controller?
Sorry if I'm rude but I need to know what is that model of CRT??
i really wanna use this for PC, hope someone can figure out how someday
very cool
