Better than the Horipad? I doubt that. Personally I'll never buy one of these, or any "new" 3rd party controller for an older system. If I get another N64 controller (which I probably will, eventually) it'll be either another Horipad or another official controller.
The reason I say it’s better than the horipad it because if you have big hands, then horipad can become uncomfortable. I’m about average height (6 foot).
Haven't received my controllers yet, but right from the beginning I wondered why their NES controllers had two analogue sticks, but not this one. It'd be ace if they had two on this one aswell, with the right being the four C-buttons.
The NES one is for PC too, this is N64 only, plus there wasn't enough extra space (IMHO) for another one. I got mine earlier this week, I like it quite a bit, I don't have a Horipad to compare it to, but I like it more than my Superpad 64
I’ve never owned an n64. I’ve played it quite a few times, and that controller feels so wacky... not bad, but not what I’d prefer. So this is a welcome addition to the world of n64 in my opinion. Yeah, looks very similar to a GameCube controller except the a and b buttons basically. But hey, gc was a great controller.
