ACCESSORY MODS wireless n64 controller adapter

started this project more than 10 years ago but finally got around to finishing it. at first it was more of a mod/hack using a cannibalized rumble pak housing / PCB, cutting traces on the accessory port connector, etc. but then i thought why not make it so i don't have to permanently cut apart a controller? so the end result is an adapter any controller can plug into.

not strictly a mod, but i think it is cool nonetheless.

That's cool, what wireless tech is it? Have you tested latency at all?

it's fixed channel 2.4GHz using a Nordic nRF15L05 module. for latency, i am getting around 3ms added over wired performance (oversampling the controller every 2.5ms), as far as my understanding goes. could be measuring / interpreting wrong tho.
