Sorry if this is old news, i haven't been around enough to know, and it was over a month ago now.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1946798216%20

holllyyyy shiiiiiit. "last adaptoid" sold for £84 (count 'em, eighty-four, quid).

and i got two for free eheh.

Shall i stick or shall i twist? ;) the ebay twist that is ;). maybe a "signed by Smiff" (but sadly also used by Smiff :( ) adaptoid would be worth even more ;) :D

If everyone knows this, trash the tread.

i probably indirectly gave them hundreds of sales, via my site and later i organised the plugin inclusion with Project64.. i feel a bit used but i liked the guy at the company and he did a good job so i'm happy. slightly worried about long term driver support, but at least the MS HID drivers should keep the buttons working almost forever...

Hey, how much will my Boom adapters be worth in the future?

I'm guessing a nickel a piece :unsure:

I'm proudly own an adaptoid :happy: but now I need a new original N64 controller (mine is getting bad) and they are very expensive now (you can only get them at the Nintendo Store)
