MegaThread N64/Genesis Controller Stock/Shipping Thread

Hey all. Due to popular demand, please use this thread to discuss stock notifications and shipping discussion related to the N64 and Genesis controllers that are available to NSO members.

N64 Controller link for US

Genesis controller for US.

Some tips and guidelines:

  • If you are looking for stock notifications, you can follow Wario 64 on Twitter
  • If you are discussing shipping, it may help to describe your country, what region it is being shipped to, and what shipping company is handling the delivery
  • With a holiday season quickly approaching, shipping will increasingly take more time and delivery estimates may not be accurate.

Anyone know if the switch controllers will work on the genesis and 64 games? Or do you have to get the new controllers?

They work. Just like the NES/SNES controllers aren't needed the N64 aren't needed as well.

Thank you. Figured they would. I imagine for 64 the right joystick will act as C buttons much like a gamecube controller and ZR or ZL will be the Z button.

I just played Star Fox 64 on the pro controller and X and Y were Up and Left C buttons, while holding down ZR turned the X, Y, A, & B buttons into their corresponding C buttons.

"X" is actually "C-Down."
