TUTUO CONTROLLER

Product Information

Hyperkin were originally well known in the retro gaming scene for their RetroN gaming consoles, but have since continued to put out competitively priced gaming accessories. The Hyperkin Admiral is a wireless N64 controller that aesthetically is very similar to the classic GameCube Wavebird wireless controller design. This really depends on personal preference and what you like to use when playing. If you find that you’re already comfortable playing Smash Bros. while using the original Nintendo 64 controller, then by all means, it makes sense to continue using what you know and like. However, you might find that you get better performance in the game by switching to a new and improved N64 controller option like the Brawler64 or Tribute 64 controllers.

Now the controller should be detected as an xinput Xbox controller. Thats it. Now you can use the controller on PC like an Xbox controller, even rumble works now! Rumble Functionality – Rumble support in compatible games, such as Star Fox™ 64 – no Rumble Pak™ required! As another great option, the Retro Fighters Brawler64 is a relatively new wireless N64 controller. Although the wired version has been around for several years, this 2.4 GHz wireless USB version was recently released. It combines a USB receiver with a fully rechargeable controller, heavily inspired by N64. In fact, it carries the same classic gray N64 color with more of a Gamecube-esque layout. As the above-quoted interview states, the original Nintendo 64 controller’s design was mainly modelled for the Mario 64 game mechanics. It wasn’t, of course, made for just one game, but while designing it, the developers had Mario 64 in mind. Figured it out today, it supports xinput and even rumble works and I want to share it since it looks like there isn't really a guide for this yet:IGN Staff(January 29, 1998).

The length of the cable comes in at just 10 feet in length and while that’s not the longest by any means, it definitely will get the job done so long as your N64 setup isn’t too far from your chair to the console. 2. The Brawler64 Wired Version The Brawler64 wired controller. Rather than your standard N64 input, it’s been replaced with a 6 foot USB cable. This makes it compatible with virtually every platform; PC, Mac, Linux, even Android smartphones with the right cable adapter. In addition, virtually all operating systems are compatible; Raspberry Pi 1 Model B, Model A, Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+, Raspberry Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi 2, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, Raspberry Pi 3, Retro Pie. As you can see, it’s widely supported with a plug n’ play connection. However, do note that Android TV boxes will not work with it. In addition, it does not work with online play; it’s ideal for emulation.

But aren't those games going to be designed for more modern pads," I pretend I can hear you say. Sure, but this new N64 controller being an official Nintendo release all but guarantees it'll be adequately supported one way or another. Project64 is a popular Nintendo 64 emulator that allows you to play N64 games on your computer. To set up a controller with Project64, you will need to configure the controller’s buttons and axes in the emulator’s controller plugin settings. This controller is great in both its wireless and wired versions and is by far the best you can get in terms of comfortability and sheer quality. Summary Form Factor – Play enhanced Nintendo 64™ games the way they're meant to be played— using a full-size Nintendo 64 style controller!Thing is, you can technically already use an N64 controller on PC. You could either buy a Hyperkin adapter and use the original pad, or you could buy one of several questionable appropriations. But it's going to be an exercise in frustration to actually use any of these in any modern game.
