Here's a look at the awesome adapter that lets you use a GameCube controller on the N64. This thing is pretty damn cool.

Pretty neat, but I much prefer my replacement "GameCube" style control stick for my beloved original N64 controller.

There's a guy who sells replacement sticks like that. I forget exactly where you can buy them from.

Just to help you a bit Arseen, you told me once about this site:

http://shop.bresoftware.com/Nintendo-64-Thumbstick-Replacement-Repair-Part-Aftermarket-New_p_437.html

which sells (or sold) replacement sticks for the N64 that are as good as the GameCube ones, the problem is that the product is not available.
As I'm not American I searched for this sticks on eBay, and found this:

http://cgi.ebay.es/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130530129272&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_3331wt_1053

but I wasn't 100% sure if they were the same you showed me.
Hope this have helped.

About the item satoshi_matrix posted, the adapter is great (all these kind of things really are) but it's a bit expensive in comparison with the replacement sticks. Anyway, thanks for sharing it, I didn't know about it.

Regards.

Yep, looks to be the same. Thank you. :D
