To be honest I never liked N64 controller. I always had problems with the joystick because it was easy to break and I am used to NES and SNES controllers

Bad. I mean, that whole thing coulda been streamlined if they cut out the c buttons. You never used 'em anyways.

i liked the n64 controller. it had way too many buttans on it, although the controll stick always messed up for me, the games were awsome, and the system kicked butt.

The n64 controller has its good points and bad. If it was something like the gamecube controller it would be one of the best ones ever made

I'm not going to lie; getting used to the overly complex N64 controller was a real pain in my ***. And I don't know how many times the joystick would come off, because the gaming would get really intense. I always preferred the PS controllers a whole lot better.

I think they are the most inventive and comfortable controllers. Suitable for all kinds of game.

It is a very good controller, it just looks overwhelming. If you think about it, most popular games don't require use of the D-pad.

The N64 controller did have a nice contour for the hand, sure. But it made it awkard when you had to hit the trigger button or shoulder buttons at the same time as the control stick, at least for me. I never fully mastered that...

the n64 controller has its good points and its bad points. It's a good fit for the hand and easy to use. however if you use a different games console then the transfer of different styles of controllers is a bit weird at first

The only downside I saw with the N64 controller was the joystick, it broke after only 60 straight hours of play. later they put a stick similar to the gamecube joystick in the center that made up for all of the shortcomings.

When i started used a n64 it was really odd, but once i got used to it, i found the control really confortable, the only thing i didnt like was the stick, it was too fragile. I broke at least 3 controls :(

I disliked the controllers because there were 3 handles. I didn't always know which handles to hold when playing different games. I know now though that it's usually the middle and right.
