The first truly wireless N64 controller, but lacks the "premium" title that was listed.

The first truly wireless N64 controller, but lacks the "premium" title that was listed.
When looking for a wireless N64 controller the pickings are slim and poor. Until the Hyperkin "Admiral" showed up. This design is based of the Japanese Hori N64 controller, and a little Sega Saturn 3D Analog Pad. Nothing wrong there, until you hold it.There is no real shape to this controller. The few videos online do show how "Flat" the controller is. The buttons are flat, the surface if flat and even the analog stick is flat. No curvature to design becomes more apparent when you hold it. If you play any modern console the shape should just sit in your hand. This just feels off.Weight, or lack of weight. This thing is light, featherweight to be exact. It comes across hollow, and it shows when you start pressing buttons and you feel like you can break this thing.There isn't creaking, but holding it to a Hori pad or original N64 controller you know the differenceButtons. Yes they too are flat, but they at least respond extremely well. The only real down side is how close the L/R buttons are to the Z buttons. You can easily click both, and there is no way around it. There is also a lack of buttons. This is a true N64 controller, and it worked great with my N64. Not so great with my Nvidia Shield or PC using Mupen. Using an emulator there aren't enough buttons for mapping extra functions like a menu.N64 receiver/ memory card adapter. It works. It loaded my memory card just fine. Too bad the memory card slot is on the unit so you can't use a rumble pack. That would have given the device the weight is was sorely missing.Battery. I played about 4 hours across three devices, and it worked great. It is listed at 6 hours, and I believe it.There are more wireless options on the way. Retro-Bit has a wireless Tribute64 coming soon. 8BitDo hasn't announced anything yet, but they have done almost all of the consoles so they are probably working on something. I feel Hyperkin jumped the gun a little calling this Premium. At the time of this writing I paid $39.99, but it doesn't feel like the price matched the quality. Wait for a price drop or the competition to arrive before purchasing this controller.
