WO64 and the VC

[Dogg Thang]

Am I right in thinking there isn't a chance in hell that Wipeout64 will ever make it to Nintendo's Wii Virtual Console?

[JABBERJAW]

I hope not, that would be a complete garbage controller for wipeout, although high def(kinda) and full draw distance might make it look real nice.

[q_dmc12]

if it did make it then I might consider buying a Revolution (I know but Wii just sounds like a bodily function:p)

[Dogg Thang]

Jabberjaw, you use the classic controller or Gamecube controller for N64 games on Wi so that would work fine. I don't think the draw distance would be affected or improved but I have noticed some of the VC games are a little less blurry.

[JABBERJAW]

except i never use classic controllers for any wipeout :)

[Dogg Thang]

What do you use?

[JABBERJAW]

asciiwheel 64

[Dogg Thang]

Ah okay. Now I understand what your issue with the VC would be. That makes sense. Most people got on fine with the plain old N64 controller I'm sure.

[Medusa]

Al, do you mean the ASCII 360 controller, or an actual steering wheel type controller? Just wondering. As all I see is Madcatz wheels on Ebay generally - speaking of which has anyone tried them??

[Task]

No, he means the ASCII Wheel 64 (http://members.tripod.com/factor_x_williams/n64/wheel64.htm).
It's a fantastic design, I had a look at it while I was there. Reminded me a lot of the negcon in design philosophy.

[q_dmc12]

didn't he have 2? - I could swear I saw 2!

And neggies - yes! at least a half dozen neggies!:nod Anyway, back on topic - I use ...neggie:p and classic n64.

Woohoo - post #1,000

[Medusa]

Oh. Sigh. I don't think I have the time to search for yet another rare obsolete expensive video game controller. Loosey-goosey stick for me I guess.
Thanks for the info Task!

@dmc- you probably just saw his display collection, lol! How many in the basement?

[q_dmc12]

Goose egg - no basement:p

[locus2k]

Actually Al has conciderably less Negcons now after the tournament... they met their untimely demise by al's ultra super rage move.

[Asayyeah]

Isaac : just one Neggie has been ' crashed ' by Al ( negContender eliminated' ) and one black and white TV , Vic and I have survived ;)

[locus2k]

negContender eliminated lol

Hes broken others before though lol and mutilated some to make his "perfect" controller... its like frankincontrollers here...

[Asayyeah]

lol

Hope he hasn t modified yet my new ASCII controller he offered me , damn Frank-Al-stein :p

I got one of these ASCII wheels a while ago, but only tested it and haven`t used it "for real". With the lever thing on the left for pitch control, the airbrakes on the wheel, it all seems pretty good for wipeout and certainly better than an N64 stick. Like a Neg, you can steer and do pitch at the same time, without crashing into the wall! Qoron IV was loads better with it. Must try to get into 64 sometime - it`s insane. Maybe a few more times on the tables could kick off some competition.....

[q_dmc12]

I want to see this frankentroller:hyper

[Task]

8 D You probably saw it. It was on the left, beside the fishtank. On the outside, it looks normal. On the inside though, he's rewired two of the buttons so that he could get his preferred setup. And that's just the ASCIIwheel modification!

His PSP modifications were much more obvious on the outside, there just isn't much room inside that thing to hide custom modifications. 8 )

Frankentroller indeed!

[locus2k]

His psps have all the buttons removed.... so it can only be played on the psp2tv.

And yeah all his controllers look "normal" on the outside but have buttons rearranged so he can controll the game better. One of the controllers had the r1 and square button switched and when i used it was like wtf...

lol

[zargz]

His psps have all the buttons removed.... so it can only be played on the psp2tv.. :o!!! you have a pic of that?????!
