I still have my childhood N64. Runs like the day I got it. Damned things are built like trucks

How is the joystick not loose to the point of unplayability?

Hell I still have my original NES and controllers and it works perfectly. Other than it looking like utter shite on my 65” TVs, the experience is perfection

When I fired mine up recently, the cords weren’t working too well, so I had to do an old school trick with some chapstick on the plugs and then it worked like a charm.

Same, including the original gold controller that came with the Goldeneye bundle

Haha nope. And I’ve never been particularly rough on my controllers. Joysticks have some play, but they aren’t bad.

I always wondered why I didn't have the joystick problem with most of my N64 controllers. I guess this is why.

Tug of war on Mario party could easily frick up your joystick in one sitting.

Wish I still had my old NES, Genesis, and SNES. I didn't take those with me when I went off to undergrad, so I assume they didn't survive a purge at some point.

Replacing that 80 pin connector is the key

Same. Still use the original controllers too. It’s really the only console I still play. The replay value of games like Ocarina of Time and Super Mario 64 are unmatched.

Agreed. I haven't played star fox 64 in years. My buddy had the switch with that n64 controller and I played that game. I beat the game like I had played it for years. Could not believe how much I remembered. Amazing. Made me realize I should really think about buying a switch.
