With exception of the Mister, all consoles have either been modded or repaired. Bonus, everything is automated through Home Assistant so it will turn on the TV, switch inputs, and turn on the console, all via voiced controlled.

I use the 8bitdo kit paired with a BlueRetro adapter. I'd skip the hall effect joystick unless yours is in bad shape, it's better than generic Amazon replacements but not as good as OEM.

That's awesome! I have 3 N64 controllers in great shape. Not sure I'm looking to invest $70 into an N64 controller, but it does sound amazing. I'm going to save your comment in case I change my mind.

You can save a little money getting the adapter on alliexpress and the kit is $30 which puts the cost at a much more reasonable $47 per controller. The adapter also works with the NSO controller if they ever stay in stock.
