Triton: you can do the trash talking with your skills! Or posts, what ever's easier...

im siding with triton. i'll go with gforce next time.

FIGHT!

Post by **Triton** » Mon Feb 26, 2007 10:43 pm

me and G-force are both game for this, so we have laid out...

DA RULZ!

1. No vacuum forming, because i dont have plastic and G-force doesnt have a vac table

2. we will all start with the same base controler (possibly 1st party n64 but not 100% sure yet) most contain at least what is required for the controller to be usable

3.any other materials at hand (other plastics metal whatever) may be used along with the source controller and of course bondo

4. 2 weeks to complete from the starting date

will add anything that me G-force and TurboTax think should be added to keep it fair

I'd be quite interested in this myself, but I'm not sure, besides.. Who'd want me to participate? I don't have many bondo examples online besides my DS WIP.

One issue though, I don't have any N64 controllers.. But it's your choice if I participate or not, I don't want to intrude if it's a 2 or 3 man battle.

i started using a first party GC controller shell is that cool? all i did was see if the controller would fit inside and drememl a few holes. i dont have an N64 controller to gut

Has it started yet?

I'm up for GC shell, I've got one spare, but I need to know what you guys are thinking.

Ahh I thought it'd be cool for you guys to remake an NES controller, you know make it more ergonomic, or maybe an SNES. Something that's so two dimensional that you have to work to make it 3D or just comfortable.

Good luck to you all.

if i can get another one, i want to make a wireless one handed snes controller out of the messiah snes wireless controller. complete with rechargable batteries, charging jack, and a comfy grip lol. prolly end up looking like a remote more then a gaming device.

you still haven't answered whether or not I can join in.. Your decision mate.

Also, I don't have any spare NES or SNES controllers to destroy.. only a cube controller and PS2 controller..

I could stop by gamestation and see if they have N64, SNES or NES controllers.

make it an open competition for everyone to try and be the best. but you have to do something that everyone may have or can get cheap. an snes or nes controller is great because they are super cheap or most people will have an extra lying around.

I looked at the local game store, they didn't have any outside a console bundle.. So I either buy a SNES with one controller, or nothing.

The only spare shell I have, is for Gamecube..
