The Hori Pad Mini for the N64 is being re-released through Retro-Bit
When it comes to N64 controllers the Hori Pad Mini has been the gold standard. It has a much better button and stick configuration compared to the original trident controller, it's overall form-factor feels more comfortable and the analog stick is vastly superior. The downside of the Hori Pad Mini is that, since it was a Japan-only release they get to be ridiculously expensive nowadays for retro collectors. But Retro-Bit, known for making clone consoles and retro accessories, recently teased a new controller from their skunkworks lab, but it looks awfully familiar. That's because Retro-Bit has licensed the molds from Hori to bring the Hori Pad Mini back into production, and it is being released here in the USA.
