    I know this is screaming into the void on a 4chan community, but if you’re smashing electronics in fits of rage you should probably go to therapy.

      …unless it’s an N64 controller, and you just got blueshell’d in Mario Kart/Oddjob’d in GoldenEye, in which case that’s perfectly normal behavior

        unless it’s an N64 controller

        is sufficient (I always hated that thing and still don’t know how to hold it – I didn’t have an N64 and only played it a few times).

          The answer is that you needed a different controller layout for different games so you would grab the handles that were needed essentially allowing for about 4 different options.

          The problem was definitely when everyone started realizing if you had the buttons they wanted to program them to do something and you had to get weird with reaching between.

        Xbox controller is also fine, as long as you intend on ordering a new one only to get a bong in the mail

        If you’re still losing to blue shell in Mario kart after all this time please delete the game and stop wasting your time
