I feel like this person would do it for free, and that makes me uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

I mean how is he making money? The $5 barely will cover gas. The shareholders must know! Are there ads?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago

In the early '90s, my dad made a universal remote by hot gluing 3 regular remotes together in a Π shape.

Damn you still have a SuperScope. Extremely jealous of your collection. I use an 8bit snes controller as my main PC one. Feels perfect for me. Even more than ps5/xbox. Too bulky!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh no, I just linked the photo for a joke. I’m just as envious of their massive collection as you are. The only interesting controller I own is a fighting stick.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Oh good then I can say that it bothers the hell out of me that this person didn’t group the same controllers together. Also don’t know why he has 5 NES controllers

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I got the vague impression that their collection occupied more space than intended. Between reorganizing shelves upon the ground and limited space, the “this is taking longer than expected” factor kicked in and decided the end.

My god, it's beautiful.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

It's so hard to get controller tapers these days. It's a dying art.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

You won't find anybody else who does it for $5.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

It smells wrong. I mean, the megatron doesn't say "Urban free-wheelers", it says "Sofa masturbaters", you know?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Aww! Green is big spoon and white is little spoon 🤗

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

They look so cute, hugging controllers.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Reminds me of the old days of wired controllers

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

Why I was just sayin' to the wife the other day, "Honeybuns, who can we get to come over and duct tape our controllers together real cheap!?" Which is weird because I'm not even married.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Does that $5 cover finding the remotes first?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Shop around, you can't beat that price. It's really a good bargain.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

At last, I can play Armoured Core the way it was intended

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

what a steal

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Do I have to supply the tape or does he bring his own?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

See, that's how they get'cha. He brings his own but he charges by the inch.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like my last trip to Reno…

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

what did you do with all that change back from the quarter?

[–] [email protected] 61 points 9 months ago (3 children)

This could actually be very useful. For example if your controller is completely covered in some sort of industrial lubricant that tape won't stick to, then you can pay this guy and he'll have to clean it so he can tape it. Now you have a clean controllet

[–] [email protected] 33 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Could also be useful because he claims to tape all your controllers. So if you've lost some, call up this guy and he'll locate every controller in your house to bring them all together in a taped mass.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Or if they're distributed around the continent and you want them all together. Cheap multi-origin shipping, hell yeah.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Glue a controller to each dragonball and call this guy when you need a new wish.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

We'll bring down Amazon! The hero we all need

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

he uses dollar store electrical tape that leaves even more gunk behind than what you started with.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 9 months ago (1 children)

what did you do to the controllers
