adaptoid for sale on ebay
« on: February 23, 2005, 11:32:42 pm »
i've heard that the adaptoids are the best thing going for the n64 controller and that they have been discontinued....again (or always outta stock cause i can't get one).

people seem to be going crazy for the price of this one adaptoid. included is the n64 controller and mem card.......so far it's $46.00 with $6.50 shipping. Three days left too. i'm curious to see the final price. if you got a few of these things lying around collecting dust, and want to make some extra cash, now's a good time. By the way, i remember these things selling for $30

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=74943&item=5168193234&rd=1

The bid is still rising!! maybe i should send this to Wish Tech. Inc and influence them to start production of these adaptiods again?

The adaptoid is the absolute best N64 -> PC adapter, hands down.

I have 2 (I bought them when they were still being produced) and they were worth every penny.

You can get these now...

http://www.lik-sang.com/info.php?category=177&products_id=93&

actually, i did. i bought three from www.electricquarter.com (i think the owner of this site is a member here?). I gave up trying to find adaptoids. I've heard some issues and problems with these as well and they're not able to do ALL the signal transfers from the N64 controller, but i'm willing to sacrifice since i had already bought three V3 N64 racing wheels for a great price. Now i wonder if it would've been better to have just bought 3 USB steering wheels instead.  :-\

you have to unplug the adapter and plug it back in everytime you restart the computer...i had a good run of having it work without doing this, about 5 times in a row.
