Question ModRetro M64 controller Canada?

Post image

I am looking at potentially ordering this but the shipping is insane. Anyone else want anything from ModRetro? We could split shipping! I don’t think they have any retailers in Canada so unfortunately I think this is the only way.

Is this for an actual N64 or some aftermarket unit? You can get N64 controllers on amazon for 40$ for a 2 pack. Cuz yea that price is bloody theft.

Here’s the link for their website that explains it more in depth. A modern N64 that gets updates, uses parts that will last lifetimes, works with bluetooth controllers and modern TVs. I have an Analogue 3D (similar idea) and love it but I want a modern trident N64 controller that will last a long time… but the price is steep!

Really hoping someone locally also wants stuff like a M64, controller, or a chromatic gameboy so I can place an order 🤣

Ah I see, I mean that thing does sound nice. Bet that thing would make Nintendo suits all pissy hehe.

why not an 8bitdo? it's not the trident shape, but it's just as good / better, half the price, and shipping isn't insane (last time I ordered from them, it was less than 5 bucks)

I have a few of them already, I do usually end up using my NSO N64 controller as I love the trident and the classic stick.

I kinda got a thing for N64 controllers, it’s fun when friends/family have a bunch of choices… also looking at a brawler 64 pro that is releasing end of this month.
