moorek Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Hi All, Back in the days of the N64 there was a set of, i think, 4 special design official controllers released. I managed to get one back then called Sandstorm, it is yellow with black markings. I never managed to find any of the other designs, one i think was called Purple Rain which was purple with black spots. I think there was also a green one, i originally saw them in N64 Magazine back in the day. I have never spotted one on ebay or even through a Google search, bit of a long shot but I thought I would ask on here. I will try and upload a pic for those that are interested. If i dont manage to complete the set or add to it then i may ebay/sell on mine. Cheers k
coys Posted April 11, 2010 Posted April 11, 2010 Hello there, I think I may have one of them! I was recently clearing out my room and found all my N64 stuff and one of my controllers is sort of a mottled purple and black - I remember it being called 'Purple forest' I think. I have been looking for something on these controllers on the internet and had never found anything until I randomly just saw this post. If you were still interested I would be willing to part with it. I will post a photo of it once I get my camera back from friend
ddr2nite Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Coys, I'm going to send you a private message. If you still have the Purple Forest controller for sale, I'm very interested. Hope you can respond to me, thanks!
jayseven Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Good luck :P That was his only post on the forums and it was nearly a year and a half ago!
ddr2nite Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 He actually messaged me back and he still has it! Just has to wait 1 or 2 weeks for him to find the controller at his mum's house. It is very difficult to find a picture of this controller - but I do have some that I can share (annoying how I can't post a picture or URL until after I've made 15 posts or more)
Dyson Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 I'd love to see them! PM me the links and I'll whack them up here Edit: Here are is a link to the ad for all 4 controllers: I personally have the two on the right (Desert Storm and Red Rain). Awesome
ddr2nite Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 C'mon Coys... where are you? Hopefully you'll PM me back soon, haven't heard from him for about 12 days. Keeping my hopes up that he'll be able to find the controller :/
ddr2nite Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I have like... all of those! Private message coming your way my friend...
ddr2nite Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Sorry, I would never part with my babies. no amount of money would be enough? Well... at the very least, do you think you could take some high quality photos of each controller to share with us?
moorek Posted September 20, 2011 Author Posted September 20, 2011 I second that. Some decent pics would be awesome! Glad some of these finally popped up. Thought I was going mad!
Wesley Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I don't have easy access to these I'm afraid.
Shorty Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 You have them, you wouldn't part from them, you can't even take pictures of them. Riddle or what?
ddr2nite Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 You have them, you wouldn't part from them, you can't even take pictures of them. Riddle or what? Really well put! Agree 100%
ddr2nite Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Coys.... where are you? Hopefully you picked up the controller from your mum's... waiting to hear back from you.
ddr2nite Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Our little friend Coys is still missing... anyone see him?
Rummy Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 I think you're gonna have to give up on him mate!
Magnus Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 No, keep the dream alive. I like your optimism.
ddr2nite Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 This optimism is starting to dwindle... I have no idea where this guy is anymore. Hopefully he comes back. I still check in nearly every day, hoping for a new PM.
ddr2nite Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 It's back! Rather, HE'S back! I got a PM from him... AND pictures of the controller! (does a happy dance) Now just need to work out a price and get it shipped!
ddr2nite Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Thanks, I really gotta get this guy's e-mail. I think one of the reasons why it's taking literally almost 3 months is because he's busy and forgets to check this forum. Hopefully within the next 1-2 months we could wrap up this deal...
