So I was replaying the game..

Does anyone notice how much moving the N64 controller hurts your thumbs?

Srsly, I was doing a shootout with a friend and my thumb HURT! :\


What am I doing wrong


(expects nobody to notice/care due to new screens)

[Articerile]

I'm sorry? What did you say? I was looking at some screens.


XD

I only ever found that swing Bowser about in SM64 hurt, anything else was fine, but I think I had developed a callous on my thumb so...

[wkw427]

Yep, I used to have one, too.

I guess I'm just used to useing the 360 controller as a mouse.. >.<

Works fine for me. I was just replaying Banjo-Tooie and I don't have a problem with the controller.

[nerdman67]

i dont have that problem. maby if you just play more you'll get used to the controller.

[jim]

You're just out of shape.

Yes. It also happens on the gamecube for me when playing SSBM.

I ignore it, of course, and have blisters after.

[BlueytheWalrus]

Pain!? You go play 4 hours of Mario Party and then you talk to me about pain!!

Seriously, that game'll cut your palm open. No joke.

i hate how the N64 controllers joy stick bit becomes loose, so you have to push it so hard for it to work

that sucks so much

and you cant get them fixed, or even buy new ones, as all N64 controllers are second hand, and usually worse of then the one you already have...

I remember whenever there was a part in a game which involved spinning the joystick round really fast, my little brother used his palm and proceeded to blister himself... the N64 joystick was evil.
