The Retro Fighters Brawler64 Bluetooth NSO Edition is a next-Gen Wireless NSO N64 & Nintendo Switch Controller, that’s also compatible with PC and Raspberry Pi*! This is the whiteversion – other colour options are available in the store.

Why Brawler64? Why Bluetooth? Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) has brought classic N64 online gaming to the Nintendo Switch. What better way to play your favourite N64 games online than with the Brawler64?!

Shiny New Buttons? Here’s why. Weve added new Screenshot, Home and – buttons to the Brawler64 wireless controller to make it fully compatible with the Nintendo Switch. Most importantly, you wont need two different controllers to play your favourite N64 games on Nintendo Switch Online. You can easily go from NSO N64 button layout to the traditional Switch Pro controller button layout with a quick press of the new Swap button. Cool, right?

Technology Galore! All the tech you need is baked right in. Get into the game more than ever with the addition of a motion sensor and dual vibration feedback. Experience the RUMBLE in your favourite N64 games! The Brawler64 N64 NSO wireless edition features the latest in Bluetooth technology with very low latency, allowing easy connectivity to the Switch without the need for dongles or extra setup.

With a wireless range of 30+ feet and a battery life of 10+ hours per charge, youll be pulling all-nighters! Sorry.

*Raspberry Pi-compatible! We got in contact with the good folks at Retro Fighters, who have confirmed that this game pad will work with Raspberry Pi. Depending on the gaming software/OS you’re using, some manual button mapping may be required. Check out this discussion on the RetroPie forum.
