Dual Analog Controller N64 Games | Punching Weight | SSFF 

"Its bad and weird, but that's why its beautiful" You could use this statement to describe like 99% of whats discussed on this channel lol

I can only imagine the shenanigans Derek would get up to if he learned how to solder lol

In 2 years: "hey I'm dereck it's me dereck from dereck" -dereck from stop dereck from fighting

"Its bad and weird, but that's why its beautiful" Honestly, Uncle Derek has taught me to appreciate such things. I used to hate things that could objectively be described as bad or unpolished. Now I appreciate the hell out of them and love them for what they are.

“Ever notice how it looks like his jaw is huge?” Well, no Derek, but now I can’t unsee it, so, um, thanks?

God, hearing somebody actually interested in WHY the N64 controller was designed that way, instead of parroting the "how do I even HOLD this???" joke for the trillionth time is exactly what I've needed to hear all my life hahahaa

My favorite thing about the N64 controller is that in "snes mode" it actually is ... a default controller with 6 button. And what capcom did? NOTHING. Capcom was like "we will port street fighter for the genesis that has 3 buttons but not the n64 that has 6 buttons as default". In another dimension Street Fighter Ex 64 exists and it is awesome

"It's a dumb way to play Pod Racer" Not really though, that's how it was set up in the arcade machines. You had a throttle on the left side and right side to control the engines separately. Odds are, they left it in for the folks that were familiar with the arcade controls.

“Knowledge is know Frankenstein was the scientist, wisdom is know he was the monster” -someone

"you aren't drunk" you think you know me

Derek: “There are some people watching this video, I am old enough to be your father...I’m fine with that.” Arrested Development Narrator: “Derek was not at all okay with that.”

The off camera comments from Producer Grace are probably my favorite part

As a man who had a Panasonic 3DO as a young boy, I appreciate the reference. You're a gift to us all, Derek.

Looks like that one controller AVGN made to play Gyromite by himself.

"It's the Tommy Wiseau of gaming controllers" - Civvie11

"...where we celebrate the weird, ambitious, and unnecessary" he says, while sitting between a Tony Hawk Ride skateboard and a Resident Evil chainsaw controller. This is why I love this channel.

I got the biggest grin at the end: "This is SSFF I told you we go dumb!"

...are all the Goldeneye controller styles named after the most outrageously named Bond Girls? Well... I learned something today

In a world where the Brawler 64 controller exists, someone needs to actually design and produce a dual-stick N64 controller that uses up two ports.

0:10 "That's right, you are not drunk" Me: "Why does it- does... does it have four bananana... uh... thingies? Iss got- isssss... got so many."

Uncle Derek: finding wonderful new toys for us to marvel at.

I appreciate the pause when Derek realized half the audience are young enough to call him Dad. It's always humbling to accept when you're getting old. Don't worry man, you'll be our favorite internet uncle no matter how old you get : D

The Atari joystick was 100% a digital controller. It was basically a d-pad with a stick.

Something about that Dual Analog Controller legitimately reminds me of the "Gyromite Controller", but also makes me think of the Virtual Boy controller as well lol

plugs in 2nd controller "Now this is pod racing!"

Minor nit: Atari joysticks were digital joysticks not analogue, actually the standard for many 8 bit computers and arcade machines.

Indy: It belongs to a museum! Controller: Kill me...

>I'm old enough to be some of your fathers DEREK CONFIRMED FOR DADDY 😍

“You are not drunk.” He says, to a very drunk me. Lmao

"There are no friends in Robotron 64" Hey! It's like my life!

"That's right, you are not drunk!" Actually I'm pretty sure I'm currently drunk, I had a bottle of cheap wine

I'm seeing double! Four analog sticks!

The world could use more Grace.

I like it when he smiles. He looks so happy when he talks about what he loves

the title sequence joke and the tomba music made this a perfect video, glad you're starting the year off with a bang

On a day where I learned that a friend overdosed in a supermarket bathroom last week, its channels like these that can make a few moments better. I hope you value that derek. We all go through shit and need things to stay occupied.dual 64 for life

You can recreate the pottery scene from Ghost with a N64 controller now!

I thought it couldn't get much crazier, then Uncle Derek busted out the N64 mice he mentioned on yesterday's update. Looking forward to that video.

Loved the vid! Thanks for making one during such a hard time. 2021 IS GONNA BE A YEAR, DAMMIT!! Keep up the great work, gang!

Now you just have to contact James Rolfe and ask him for his Gyromite NES controller.

"If you don't know how to hold this thing, your parents do" Nah noone had a nintendo here in the 80s-90s

Loved the honest chat at the end! You all are a treasure to the Retro gaming world

No worries Derek - I tell people about your channel all the time. Thanks for continuing to entertain us throughout the crazy last year and going into the more optimistic new one!

"My dumb ass wasn't readin' no instruction books back then" Bruh. That was like... half the joy of going out and getting games! You had something to read on the way home to get hyped up for what you were about to play! It was one of my favourite things about gaming and I'm so sad that a lot of games don't come with manuals anymore T_T

Speedrunners: This development excites, and yet enrages, us.

You popped in my feed with a 4 hour vid. I just wanted to see this, thanks for having it seperate. Leaving a like. Also LOVE YOUR CACODEMON PLUSHY!!!

The Dual Analog sticks for Star Wars racers actually mirrors the arcade version, where you controlled with 2 accelerator levers instead of a steering wheel or flightstick.

At the time, the N64 controller wasn't considered bad. It just became outdated very quickly.

Me: *saw dual analog stick Also Me: ItSa DuAlShOcK!

This video is a GODSEND!!! I had no idea this was possible! Now I can finally play through Goldeneye again! Thank you!!!

This is a nice surprise on my 30th birthday, and it’s making me less sad that my 20s are dead. Thanks Derek and Grace!

If my vague memories of playing it in the bowling alley are correct, that means you can play the N64 version similarly to the arcade version! With the per-engine control. Obviously it feels different on sticks than two levers but... that’s sweet.

Because Frankenstein created the monster, you could technically say that the monster shares Frankenstein's name.

Thank you for making 2020 a great year, if only for a short time! Love you guys!

Hard to believe I've been watching you for over ten years now, Derek; keep making great content!

There is nothing bad or weird about the Nintendo 64 controller. It’s perfectly ergonomic and the controls were great.

I can't look at James Bond's face the same way ever again

Looking forward to another great year, with SSFF. And what a great way to start the year off, love when you cover weird peripherals!

Did they literally use Bondo and paint to join the two halves? Honestly, that's an impressive amount of dedication to do it that way instead of just 3D printing a new shell or something.

10:44 Ah yes, my favorite Rare developed shooter...

6:23 Now I can't unsee it 🤣

I love how the Tomba Music is playing in the background, one of my favorite Playstation 1 games of all time

Love you guys!! You're incredible! ❤️

Uncle Derek potentially being my father creates all kinds of confusion.

It's alright Derek, I'm sure a lot of people would want you as their daddy

WHAT a triumphant return!! Welcome back, guys!! Very much anticipating the Mario Artist video!!

Glad you finally learned about this Derek, seemed right up your alley!

The N64 has a perfect controller. Comfortable as hell, great feeling stick. You can't chnage my mind.

Well, certainly an...interesting little device, I'll give ya that.

Thank you Uncle Derek! Punching Weight is one of my favorites on RU-vid. Keep sharing the weird, ambitious, and unnecessary with us! :)

Every time you make a video about anything N64 related it makes me so happy.

The Atari stick was digital though.

When a bunch of comments are two weeks older than the actual video.

I remember when Alien Resurrection on the PS1 set the template for how console FPS controls would be. GameSpot's review trashed the game because of the controls, which are now standard. The review is worth a read, if you are looking for a good laugh. The reviewer even recommends waiting for Aliens: colonial marines to be released on PS2

Yay!! Thank you for being recognition to Sin and Punishment!

My ex-gf has something like that...

Aliens are really gonna get confused when they glass us and find this relic🤣

I know a few Goldeneye speedrunners who would love to get one of these, Karl Jobst especially. What a fantastic idea someone had and I kind of want to make one out of broken controllers.

"It can't get worse." Great job, Derek...you jinxed us.

I know it's in bad taste to comment on a video before you even watch it in full but man the plug for your Patreon was 🤌🤌 just perfect and I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us Uncle Derek and Producer Grace, you guys are something special! ❤

I love the ridiculous depths of video game periphery. Always look forward to these vids. The deepest I ever down that rabbit hole was picking up 4 NES Advantages to play Smash TV with 2 players dual analog for that genuine "home arcade" experience.

1:18 was *GREAT* X'D Grace, you won the internet today. Thank you for the lulz :)

3:39 - “It IS kinda bad and weird, but that's why it's beautiful.” I think this one sentence neatly sums up this channel in its entirety. 👍🏻

"that's right you are not drunk" Yeah I'm not That's the latest n64 controller for the chernobyl design

Your videos are appreciated. Thanks for making them.

Grace's inputs are always so nice haha.

This channel is amazing. I love it!

Hey! Just found your channel! Great stuff man! Also, it is a great joy to hear Tomba and Mischief Maker's OST throughout your videos =D Keep it up!

Can I just say how happy it makes me whenever you use the Tombi (/a) music in these videos?

I'm over 40 and lived and breathed the n64 in college. Never knew these control options existed till this video.

"Hopefully this next one... It can only go uphill from here. It can't get worse!" Derek's accidental juju curse starts off 2021 with a bang! 😂

Thank you for making quality, delightful content

nothing like starting my day with a new video from my favorite uncle 🙏

Yeah great to see you man. Watched your update video. Happy to hear about your mom.

Love your content, keep it up my guy.

im so glad there is someone who is shining light about the two controllers feature of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.... i knew i couldn’t be the only person having this much fun playing analog style!!

The "stealth" dual analogs in Sin & Punishment reminds me of something weird I encountered back in 2013 during the Xbox One launch. A friend came over and we were trying to play local 2-player in Forza Motorsport 5. If you remember back in the 360 days, signing into your Xbox Live account on another console was actually a somewhat lengthy process, so we were trying to avoid that and instead of logging in on his own account, he logged in as a guest user on my account. This somehow ended up with both of us controlling the same car. Both controllers had full control, and we managed to win a race with one of us handling the steering and the other working the pedals. I don't know if it's been patched or if it's still possible to do that, but it was a pretty weird way to play!

"It's a pretty dumb way to play podracing-but it is not the DUMBEST way." Actually laughed out loud when you did this. Expert comedic timing. Man, I love this channel!

That's a very satisfying thumbnail preview i have to say.
