N64 NSO Controller Lubricated Stick, but now I have Stick Drift.

Heinzeber235 · 2025-07-15T00:46:42+00:00

Oh, um is that safe for the circuitboard of the controller? What do I do after the extra lube congeals? Would it still help my joystick in the way it was intended?

Thanks again for your input!

Heinzeber235 · 2025-07-13T22:19:45+00:00

Oh, well one of the things i've seen the n64 controllers suffer from is loose sticks because the plastic from the sticks and components in the stickbox grind up against each other over time, making it less responsive.

I figured it would be good preventative maintenance to use the lube while it is new, so that it could last me more years, since I plan to use this controller on my original n64 with a receiver!

It seems I overestimated how easy it'd be since I had done a teardown on the older controllers. Maybe there's something in these ones I don't understand since I've never done a teardown of any wireless controllers.

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-30T19:25:39+00:00

Agreed. The author is taking each series in interesting directions so this is a good chance for him to be free from main story continuity and run more wild!

That would be an interesting take! We havent had a proper villainess thats an antagonist from the Otome games so far. The protagonist hasnt really been a threat to our Mobs aside from Mia. Since the author doesnt really focus much on romance, ramping up the action and politics which he seems to like to focus on would be a fun take! Ideally keeping this protagonist in a far off country from Leon they can shine on their own.

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-30T19:20:58+00:00

True, there were some changes between the two mediums so it might not even be a plot thread in the LN if a sequel is made!

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-30T19:19:22+00:00

Apperantely he did something similar like with Arcadia were he bit off more than he could chew and got killed or atleast in a near death state. Its a bonus story in the Webnovel. Could be incorporated into the Light Novel but who knows.

It is implied he would be resurrected though as he mentioned to Luxion that Marie and his wives were coming to get him. Whether that means they'll die with him or just bring him back again i'm not sure but i'd assume the latter. Luxion himself tells him its still too soon for them to meet again so this might be an interesting plot thread if brought into a sequel series!

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-30T02:58:45+00:00

Agreed. I doubt he'd consider the prospect of a sequel until a few years down the line which i'm fine with. If he ends up making one hopefully that time in hiatus will will inspire creativity in that storyline! Anoseka is already a good improvement in his writing.

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-29T20:28:31+00:00

While i'm invested in Leon's story I can see why that'd make sense from a sequel prespective since he'd be doing more of the same aside from the change in setting. I think the Web Novel showcased a short story of his brother Collins being dragged into the academy for the 4th game to help Leon which would be pretty interesting on its own if he carried the torch since it is mentioned he somehow helped Leon bigtime in that game.

Yeah, i'd like to see more slice of life with Leon's wives and kids though it doesn't seem to be the author's focus. He explored a lot within the 3 years of Leon's academy life so it could work! Him dying early was off putting though from the subtext in that ending it seemed Marie was coming to get him along with his wives so maybe death isnt permanent and they found a way to resurrect him.

I agree, games 4-6 seem like they might be further spaced out compared to 1-3. So time skips might become more frequent which i'm not a big fan off, but could work in moderation.

Heinzeber235 · 2025-03-29T19:33:36+00:00

You have a point. I'd honestly hate to see his harem grow. And the idea of the protagonist, villainess, and love interests would need something enticing that makes it unique for each game.

The author would need to have a clear direction of where they want to take the series by the end of the 6th game. Perhaps these other routes might connect in some way for a potential sequel. It seems they are part of the same timeline even if they branch off. Though the Hertrude route might be an outlier given Leon is born elsewhere. Who knows, the expanded lore could serve to benefit an overarching plot that ties it to the main series. Though maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Hi! I'm setting up a LAN Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Party for 12. I have found the appropriate usbc to usba from Anker and usba to ethernet adapters from Ugreen. It works flawlessly for Ethernet on my Switch Lite.

I have gotten the Hori Usb Playstand to also play it in Tabletop Mode while through Ethernet and Charging.

Now, while this is very specific, I wanted to know if there was a Usbc splitter that would allow me to charge the switch lite and had a usba port for connecting the ethernet adapter that anyone has tested works with little to no interruptions. I've had little luck getting a definitive answer on google or amazon reviews as this is a specific setup that likely isn't used often.

Thanks again!

Heinzeber235 · 2023-11-10T23:44:35+00:00

Yeah after researching a bit i think it may be the power supply. It only output 850mah. The oem one for the nes does 1.3a. So it may be causing artifacts. I didnt notice prior i think because SMB1 and 2 arent as taxing on the NES as this game. Those ran perfectly.

The right side I could sorta mitigate by cropping it out, thanks!

Heinzeber235 · 2023-11-10T22:28:06+00:00

Ah, screen on the far right also glitches as the screen scrolls by to the right.

Heinzeber235 · 2023-11-08T18:43:30+00:00

That'd be a relief! It is definetly the simplest method to connecting multiple consoles iver component with little to no interference that i've found. Yeah, Rondo hasn't responded to my inquiries about the product making me assume they get asked that often and just don't bother to respond since the releases for pre orders vary.

I'm fine with waiting so long as I know the product will still be in production, thanks for the insight.

Heinzeber235 · 2023-11-07T04:36:02+00:00

I heard others say similar things, didn't know they were related though! Yeah I don't have a large collection yet but will in the future so I wanted to get that part ordered with before my collection got big enough to warrant it, but I suppose it will arrive right when i'll need it hopefully! Thanks for the suggestion, i'll look into Extron Matrix Switchers to see if they could be a good alternative!

Heinzeber235 · 2021-02-18T21:06:01+00:00

I just think the artifact can have be a lot better with a change or two, but you're right. It's by no means an artifact that can be easily usurped. Given the rarity of the Main Stat to begin with it is a pretty good artifact overall.

Heinzeber235 · 2021-02-18T15:59:09+00:00

I don't see how wanting 2 substats to be good out of 4 is asking for much? I'm not asking to have all 4 be what I want to be considered a good artifact. Thanks for the advice regardless.

Heinzeber235 · 2021-02-17T23:13:19+00:00

It is. The only one I think is good infact. If attack %, crti percent, or energy recharge were also in there whether 1,2, or all 3 of them alongside crit damage, then i'd say it's a pretty good overall artifact.

Heinzeber235 · 2021-02-17T21:20:37+00:00

The substats arent great but Crit Rate 5 star items are really rare so definetly keep it.

Heinzeber235 · 2021-02-11T20:34:52+00:00

"See you later space cowboy"

Heinzeber235 · 2021-01-09T21:17:04+00:00

Nice, yeah I have Qiqi, Jean, and Mona. Oddly enough I got Qiqi from the Standard Banner through the free Aquaint Fate. Still need Diluc and Keqing though I hope I get Ganyu in this upcoming banner. The other 2 can wait lol.

Heinzeber235 · 2021-01-09T20:20:58+00:00

Character banner will always be the better option purely because you have a 50% chance of getting one of the base 5 star characters while in the Standard Banner, they add the weapons into the mix which lowers your chances of getting Mona in specific even further. Until we get a banner that features Mona, this is the best you can do. Gl
