i hear people are using these as parts for controllers that have broken buttons, since apparently they're just the button configurations without the electronics?
Was just at the Nintendo store in Shibuya, Tokyo and these were available for all consoles from a giant vending machine 600 yen each ~$4. I bet the eBay seller got it there. Not sure if they are available anywhere else! Cool to see on here.
Those are indeed amazing. so lovely, and portable. I have one of these, it has MX Blue keyboard switches in it, so it sounds like I am typing fast on teams/zoom calls.
Gonna grab one of these for my brother for Christmas. Just wish the GameCube buttons wasn’t most expensive. We played a lot of that when we were younger
In series 2, there are SNES buttons (light purple, dark purple), Super Famicom buttons (red, yellow, blue,green), N64 control stick, N64 buttons, GameCube c-stick, and GameCube buttons. They're are no shoulder buttons.
You can buy them at any Nintendo store in Japan. 600 yen per, but it's a gachapon (random capsule) so no guarantee to get what you want. I got 5/6 in the first 10 pulls, but did another 10 to get the GameCube buttons.
Lol was just about to say that I just saw these when I was in Tokyo at the Nintendo store in shibuya. There was a couple buying dozens of them and was so confused why
There's a closet near the machines that has bags with more. Maybe they were in between refills? I saw them refill the machine about 6 times in about 20 minutes at Shibuya a couple days ago.
I’d kill for this. This and the GameCube buttons. I literally talk about how I’d carry around a non functioning n64 or GameCube controller at work just to fidget
Now, if only they'd make a joycon out of those buttons instead of trying to play the Switch ports with bastardized controls. It wouldn't be that hard, and it wouldn't even need the gyro motion controls. I just want the buttons the games require to be played correctly!
