Chris Gallizzi and Jesse Aragon from Hyperkin have published a new video over on YouTube that details how to modify an N64 controller to work with Microsoft’s next-generation Xbox One console.
The two hackers gave themselves just one day to complete the hack transforming the N64 controller into an Xbox controller in preparation for the launch of the Rare Replay Collection that will soon be launching on the Xbox One.
The Rare Replay Collection is expected to launch for Xbox One on August 4th 2015 and features 30 classic games from Rare including :
Jetpac (1983)
Atic Atac (1983)
Lunar Jetman (1983)
Sabre Wulf (1984)
Underwurlde (1984)
Knight Lore (1984)
Gunfright (1986)
Slalom (1987)
R.C. Pro-Am (1988)
Cobra Triangle (1989)
Snake Rattle N Roll (1990)

Although the modification is not perfect at the moment it does show what is capable of being hacked to work with Microsoft’s Xbox One console, and given more than one day to complete the project I am sure the duo will have the small kinks ironed out.
