I've added a couple consoles since the last time I posted (the Saturn and Dreamcast, I also have a Genesis now, but it needs some cleaning and a place I can put it).





I'm looking for a shelf that can replace the table the Dreamcast is on. Nothing fancy, just a small version of the shelves I have all the Nintendo consoles on (sadly I haven't found something that fits in that area, might just make something myself in the summer when I have time). I also seem to be running out of room, so one thing I want to do is get separate shelves for my movies and reorganize a few things to add some more room for the games.

The only thing not in the pictures is the Wii which is in the "family room" next to my web server lol.

Actually a US citizen, but the US playstation id's look like crap :(

I can see you're an adept of the N64 / SNES vertical covers. Nice to see those getting more popular. Great collection you've got!

Don't play the first Mario Party.

Actually repairs aren't that hard, there's a guy on ebay who sells replacement sticks, they're pretty easy to install.

Really easy to install. A philips screwdriver and 2 minutes of your time.

Or just buy a brand new GameCube style thumbstick for your controller:

I have these on all four of my controllers, and let me tell you, they are really great.

I never had a Gamecube. What exactly would the difference be? Does it feel much different from the N64 thumbstick?

They are more like Dual Shock sticks than the kind the N64 uses.

Looks interesting, might have to order these as on one of my controllers have working thumpstick, and even that is beginning to go.

I smirked when I read this from the product description: We do not have any detailed information available about how to install this item in your Nintendo 64 control pad, but if you have a Phillips screw driver and a brain you should be able to handle it...

I'd say one comparison might be what the DC controller's stick would feel like if it had a rubber tip.

How is the accuracy and quality compared to the original N64 and NGC sticks?

These are starting to sound more and more tempting.  :)

Hey, these thumbsticks seems like something worth getting. Does someone knows another store I can get it? The one from the link does not ship to Brazil, where I live =/
