ADAPTOIDS!!!!

hypernova:

While doing my usual periodic check of adaptoid availability on ebay, I figured I'd check the web to see if wishtech or ztnet was offering them again.

Our prayers may have been answered.  ZTNet is offering preorders right now on adaptoids!  Now I'm not too certain on their respectability as a vendor, but if this is the real deal, you've got to get in on it NOW!  According to them, they have already filled out the required preorders, and they are already in the process of producing them!

Adaptoids!

There is also a thread revealing the progress of the manufacturing.

Progress thread

I'd submit as news, but I've never submitted news before, so I'm somewhat confused of the "regulations" on that submission page.

Good spot.  I will be real curious to see how this new ruin performs.

Too damn expensive -_-
Isn't it possible to make one your self?

I did the same with my xbox controller, I just cut the wire, solder an extra USB cable to it, heat-shrink tube around it and now it plays both on my pc and xbox.

XBOX controllers ARE USB...  They just have a proprietary plug.  N64 controllers on the other hand are not and therefor need conversion.
