The controller looks awesome, color scheme better than final but it's the Indy that really got me intrigued, tho! PS I don't believe your baby's so ugly you had to paste an Ultra64 logo on it's face in shame but that's the weirdest thing I ever saw censored :) (don't they all look alike? anyway congrats on being a dad!!)

@@teamplays2252 Haha! Naw, she's adorable - a total Gerber baby. My wife and I tend to not post pictures of the kids on Facebook, etc. Sometimes I gotta hold a kid while shooting which is fine, so I generally just cover them with something silly and dumb.

The button layout reminds me of a fighting "stick" controller for like Street Fighter.

Without the name plate on this controller it looks like a replica not trying to be mean but it just looks off not saying fake because it does look real like plate fell off or broken off

Please get the "jewel" on the Ultra 64 controller! It would be SO cool ;)

My first thought when I looked that the controller

literally can easily agree. the retail one is horrible!

@Zoe Kin well he said it was kinda slippery since its smooth plastic without much grip. Imo it looks kinda overly big and clumsy too.. so I can see why Nintendo changed it.

Someone should try recreating and implementing that analog stick in an N64 controller.

@@Lightblue2222 i feel like if you just add a grip to that? It could work for the ones that likes the original Xbox controller thumbsticks

Name was censored by request of the person who sent over the controller in the first place so that’s why you hear music instead of the person’s name

i noticed this too i was gonna comment 😭

But it makes it the normal 64 control look like a fisher price toy.

Ah...huh... ..looks great....would be ashame if it wusnt the real deal...just a 3d printed one.... What does the inside looks like.. . Official pcb.???

That rubber would have been a lot worse on skin than plastic since it would literally rub your skin off with the extra friction.

It also appears to be a lot bigger too. Maybe it was changed to be easier for little kids to use.

@ Op is a goof

@ Meh. Even before I watched the full video I was thinking the same thing about that joystick and Mario Party. Pretty sure anyone who's played knows that pain and thought the same lol

Yup... I was thinking the same thing 😂

The virtual boy was the last console I ever bought day 1.

Look up the Sega VR, looked like the oculous but was meant to come out and bring true VR to the sega genesis, was even tested publicly and featured in a movie but alas, never released. Sega was afraid of people running into walls. LoL. There's a video on youtube of a testing booth with Genesis VR gameplay.

Haha I watched the virtual boy video on avgn. Good thing it wasnt the popular thing 😌

@@BigMacOrange Oh.

Nintendo never intended for the public to think that. The Virtual Boy was just supposed to be a premium product with a handful of games, while the N64 was their main home console. Sadly, fans and the media expected the most out of it because it had the word Nintendo on it.

also it's a cool progression from super nintendo

@@blazingtrs6348 i completely forgot i commented this

The Indy itself isn't that hard to get a hold of. The Ultra 64 board within it is much rarer.

devkit isnt hard to get at all but ok

He gets all the pussy

No floppy diskettes here. We taking hard drive.

They get an erection for games :) Erection for games should be the name for their side channel

Maybe for bubble bath babes. Or that peek a boo poker.... and I'd give you Laura Croft if you were 13-16 yrs old.

I wish I understand what you say

what if the baby actually is the ultra 64

Dinosaur Planet 🤞

@@GLI00M Yes... YES.

I'm still hoping for Dinosaur Planet. If you don't know what that is: It's what Star Fox Adventures originally was suppose to be.

Someone has a beta cart of F-Zero for snes but they have yet to show off anything... for a while

The original Conker game?

@@strra woah didnt know they made them

well early N64 developers later SDKs were Windows-based (especially since the Indy got discontinued in 1997)

@@TorutheRedFox Even cooler then :D

well it's similar to how N64 homebrew and ROM hack developers work today, at a computer with a controller connected to it, just replace the Indy with a regular PC, and the N64 card with an emulator lol

@@TorutheRedFox I can't say I've ever done any kind of game development, so I don't know too much about it. I'm more into console repair and hardware than I am into software and knowing how it works.

Reminds me of the Snatcher ost lol

Mandella effect

I think it's because the indent in the controller was the same shape as the indent on the console and we just filled in the blank.

Me too, weird! I was expecting him to say someone peeled it off.

It’s pretty clear from the shape that it was their original intention. At some point, they decided to change the name of the console. Not sure why. I clearly remember “Ultra 64” commercials in one of the Killer Instinct arcade games so it wasn’t just a code name.

@@MoneyManHolmes Wikipedia says, "Previously, the plan had been to release the console with the name "Ultra Famicom" in Japan and "Nintendo Ultra 64" in other markets. Rumors circulated attributing the name change to the possibility of legal action by Konami's ownership of the Ultra Games trademark. Nintendo said that trademark issues were not a factor, and the sole reason for any name change was to establish a single worldwide brand and logo for the console." Interesting! What with Famicon/SNES and Mega Drive/Genesis back then names were a bit ropey. Not sure what the Famicon/SNES thing was about but I know Sega had to rename the Mega Drive because of an existing trademark in North America. Anyway, seems Nintendo were on the case here and it makes sense to keep the name consistent. Why we couldn't all have the 'Nintendo Ultra 64' I don't know. I prefer the final name, anyway.

Agree consumers direct catalogue or toys r us catalogue I think. I also wonder if nintendo power ever ran a image.

@TubularBow HD less invasive, less risk of breaking it.

Random Comment That was definitely the wrong word.

@The SNES Man Shoulda bought the rights!

Damn you, Konami! Haven't you done enough damage?!

Try double tap diving with it lol

This. I really would love a ultra 64 3rd party controller. And you could make your own jewel to add on the top of the controller.

Not only that, but the six button layout suddenly makes sense to me now. Your thumb will always go in that diagonal direction. So to lay it out any other way is less ergonomic! Man, Nintendo really thought of everything. D-pad for digital inputs, Analog stick for analog, and perfectly positioned buttons for fast distinct inputs. I actually think this is maybe better than any modern controller design?...! Really the only thing missing are some pads on the back for 2-4 more buttons. Do any places sell USB N64 controllers with good analog sticks and 4 shoulder buttons?

I enjoyed it quite a bit as a kid!
