Amazing Product!!

I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Awesome quality and workmanship!! I bought 2 complete NES64 controllers to use on my Atari STs and they work amazing! Using them to play STario Land, it's honestly just like playing Mario on the NES (all buttons and physics are identical).. playing other games like Xenon, Turrican II, etc is so awesome... These are the real deal holyfield of gamepads for Atari ST if you're like me and never grew up with joysticks.

Amazing way to re-use broken NES controllers

I have a few genuine NES controller lying around and until I saw Adrians Digital Basement video about this product, I did not know what to do with them. So out of curiosity I immediately ordered my first kit. Assembled it, tried it out with my c64 and a500 and fell in love with it. No more soaring fingers. I LOVE it and I will order more!

NES64 is great!

NES64 is great! Nothing else to say! ;-) Personally, I set the up move for both up arrow and B buttons all the time. The A button is enough for fire on the Commodore 64. I don't need switch between one or the other.

Nice controllers

The NES64 controllers look good and work great. Especially platformers are much more comfortable to play with these than using a joystick.

Size and layout match my original NES controllers precisely. The feel of the buttons is not exactly the same but I like the thought that no original controllers had to be harmed to create these.

The PCB inside is nicely done with good silkscreen. There are pads for the START and SELECT buttons, too, which are made electrically available at solder pads on the PCB for custom wiring. (These buttons are not connected to the cable in the default configuration of the NES64 as they are not directly supported by the target platforms.)

I noticed only one minor point that could be improved:
The molded connectors are an *extremely* tight fit for my C64C. So much so that I fear a bit for the solder joints on the C64C's motherboard when I pull or wiggle them out. I hope they will become a bit looser with use.

Great little controller

If you're like me and you've been using Atari-style joysticks for your retro-console, this is for you. This controller has a 9-pin plug, like the Atari joysticks, but is much more comfortable.
Shipping was fine, considering it comes for halfway around the world! It's kind of cool to receive a package from Norway ;-)

Great Quality, super easy to install. What's not to like.

The pcbs are top quality. Cable supplied was with moulded c64 connector, just like the original. There are even instructions on the boards. Documentation is thorough and easy to follow. Super easy to assemble (I had the kit without case). Works like a charm.
A convenient, reversable, top quality and easy conversion. Well worth the money.
