Retro Fighters is working on another controller, this time for the Dreamcast.  I'm not going to get into what did and didn't go well with their N64 controller, but at the end of the day, I was happy with the controller I got.  My biggest issue with this new controller is the price.  Even though the KS price is a at a discount compared to the retail price that they plan, it's still more than double what I paid for the N64 controller.  I don't play my Dreamcast often enough to justify that, and for that reason, I'm probably going to pass on this one.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

I don't really understand this one.  The original Dreamcast controller is fine and pretty durable compared to the N64 controller (mostly the sticks that crap out).

Durability wise, I see no problem with the Dreamcast controller (I've never seen a broken one).  For me, the issue would be the comfort level.  The DC controller is pretty uncomfortable, especially the d-pad and shoulder buttons.  But while I would love to see a more comfortable controller, I don't think I'm going to pay $43 for it.

Many folks, myself included, cannot stand the DC controller.  It’s an ergonomics thing, not a durability issue.

Another Kickstarter update.  Bloodstained has a Summer 2019 release date (of sorts) finally set.  Only two years later than the original estimate.

Better late and GOOD, as opposed to, well Mighty No 9.

...assuming this is actually good.  *fingers crossed*

I definitely agree.  I would rather wait for a good game, than get a crappy game soon.  But between this game and Justice Beaver (the only two games I've ever funded), I don't plan to Kickstart any other games.
