Overview
The Hudson Joycard 64 has four turbo switches for the A, B, Z and Start buttons. Similar to the Hori Commander, Hori Mini Pad and ASCII Pad 64, the Hudson Joycard 64 was licensed by Nintendo. These Japanese-produced licensed controllers can share the same buttons as Nintendo-produced Nintendo 64 controllers, but due to differing form factors or functionality, some of these parts are unique to these licensed controllers. For the Joycard 64, the A, B, C, L, R and Start buttons, as well as the D-Pad are the same, as are the button membranes. The Z button is not easily removable due to a notch and is not entirely compatible with original Nintendo 64 controllers. The joystick module is not the same due to the Joycard's sensitivity adjustment feature, but the internal components are. The controller was likely produced by Nintendo in one of their Japanese factories because it was made in Japan like earlier Nintendo 64 controllers and features the same quality of plastic, coloration and part number location as official Nintendo-produced controllers. However, the Joycard 64 features the unique ability to adjust the joystick sensitivity by pulling the joystick module vertically and rotating it counterclockwise or clocking to make it less or more sensitive, respectively. |
Trivia
The Blue Skeleton controller was limited to 1000 copies. To win the controller, buyers of Power League 64 had to send away a registration card to Hudson to be entered into a lottery to win the controller.
