need NUKE nintendo 64 controller, for a good cause

[piscian18]

hey all,

I'm fairly new here but could use alittle help. A friend of mine bought me a nintendo 64 but, I have cerebral palsy. I know the joysticks aren't fun but they completely unuseable for me. below is some pictures showing why.

As you can see I'm incapable of extending my thumb in any direction.

anyway I managed to find out that some third party made a normal joystick for nintendo 64 called "nuke".

I've look all over but I can't find one I can afford theres an auction on ebay for a whole set (64,games, joysticks) but I won't win it. I was hoping someone could find an afordable one (like less than 20$) or trade/sell me one.

thank you for looking.

I'm not sure if they have it in stock, but I found it for $10 here: http://store.yahoo.com/neugames/n64superpadn64.html Use caution when using yahoo stores, give 'em an e-mail first and see if they even still have it in stock. Let me know if they have it in stock and ship it out to you.

I'll keep an eye out for you here. There are a ton of great used game stores.

 

[piscian18]

Thanks fellas I emailed the store, I forgot to mention I'm totally willing to pay advance and shipping if you find one locally.

I'll keep an eye out in the Gamestop I work at. We get them in used every once in a while, so if you find one before I do, let us know.

hey, I actually have on of those (but mine say Super Pad 64 Plus, dont know if it makes a difference). I will have to test it, but if it works, you can have it for $5 plus shipping

bump and good luck getting one

 

[piscian18]

gamergirl I'll take you up on that if it works ok for you. pm me if it works I don't wanna bump too many times today.

I used to have one of those till I stepped on it. A shame, because it's actually a really comfortable controller.

AHHH my cousin had one of these and I loved it, haven't seen one since.

 

[RedvsBlue]

I've got one of those too, if your deal with raregamergirl falls through or you decide you want a backup PM me.

ugh I just tired to look for like a psx to n64 converter but there aren't any *controller* to n64 converters (...

 

[piscian18]

thanks for looking for me, sad thing is I probably won't be able to play the revolution either I think nintendo has a hate on for people with disabilities.

 

[piscian18]

bump.

I checked most of the gamespots in louisville. anyone know if the local ebgames till carries 64 stuff ?

pm'd ya

 

[piscian18]

hey thanks, i pm'd back. funny thing is I managed to find one on ebay but the night I got it My wife (got married last wensday or tuesday i forgot) left it out and it got destroyed . So now im looking for atleast a couple more. ebays seems to have dried up but im going through it again.

BTW * not trying to be a jerk but I had to tell somebody

I'm passing on the DS. its just gonna be too hard for me to play. probably the revolution aswell do to my disability. I'm writing a letter to nintendo stating my complaints. I doubt they will listen. I just getting tired of nintendo not even bothering to test the weird shit they come up with. I gotta find pictures but there are third party one handed controllers out there for those of you in worse shape than me.
anyway heres couple of examples of nintendo coming up with reasons for kids to go outside and play.

"ITS NINTENDO! PEOPLE WILL JUST DEAL WITH IT"

remember the powerglove of lothing

P-P-P powerglove
