While the result of the emulated Nintendo 64 games on the Switch might have left fans wanting for more, others were eager to get their hands on a modernized N64 controller. However, if you didn't already get yours ordered, you likely won't be able to get your hands on one until next year, at the earliest. The $49.99 controller is sold out on both the Nintendo US and UK storefronts, with the former noting that while you can't order any for now, more controllers are on the way, and will be available sometime in 2022.

Mine should be arriving today. Should have just taken the plunge and got two.

Glad I got one. Might get a spare when they eventually come back in stock since they are really nice. No rush though.

While I didn't get that, I got the Mega Drive controller, should be here this week Not a fan of the OG N64 controller to be honest.

I don't even know yet if they made a stronger analogue stick. That's will be my main decision factor.

That's not too bad actually. But still, eBay prices for these will skyrocket over Christmas

The usually marketing crap from Nintendo, make it so it's sold out everywhere, create hype, flood the news feeds, blah blah blah and everyone will rush out and buy them!! I don't blame them really ...as if they had 4 controllers per person no one would actually want or buy any.

The one I got feels very similar to the old n64 sticks. It even had a bit of wobble right out of the box.

mine will arrive tomorrow (bought 2). I got the tracking number on Monday or yesterday iirc, and it shows Thursday. sucks that they won't be available for a while though for anyone else who wants them. I plan to use one with the pc and one with the switch.

You can hold it in 3 different positions, depending on the game!

I got one. It's a high quality controller, probably the best of the NSO repros. Worth the $50.

Now the Genesis controller I don't know how they're justifying that price point

 

[antiNT]

???
I thought it was considered the least comfortable Nintendo controller of all time?

I can see that. The Genesis controller feels a bit cheap, so light too.
