@gibson_moo4517 Hi, thanks for your interest! Project is in standby for now. Unfortunately I have very little spare time now. I have some further plans for this project but unfortunately I cannot forecast when I'll be able to invest the time needed.

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

After more than 18 months since I started this project I'm finally ready to ship the first 9 prototypes! (I built 10 units but one is for myself 🙃) I will send an email to the 9 people that will receive one of these and hopefully they will soon share their opinions! Stay tuned!

@WTFParts_ The project is in idle state at the moment. Unfortunately I'm extremely busy and can't proceed any further. I hope to have enough time to improve the stick in autumn and winter

@cheese051 Congrats!

@MissingNoSSB @ThatsADarkHorse @JpxSsb The case is outsourced because it required a much higher precision than what my FDM printer could offer. The thumbstick is printed by a friend of mine on a resin printer

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@MissingNoSSB @ThatsADarkHorse @JpxSsb Moreover one of the two prototypes broke after the controller fell to the ground. That's something that could break an OEM controller aswell. Breaking by playing hard however IS something that has to be addressed. Thanks for the kind words by the way, I'm trying my best :)

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@ThatsADarkHorse @MissingNoSSB @JpxSsb Simple in theory, not in practice otherwise I would have already done that. For now the only solution viable is using metal instead of plastic, and that is not compatible with larger scale production. I'm trying to think of other solutions

@sanglish18 @cheese051 @karljobstgaming A stick is on its way to both of em. We'll see what that have to say about it! (Hopefully something good 🙂)

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

Little spoiler: we should soon hear something from @cheese051 and @karljobstgaming. Very excited about it! 😍

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@ShihmanSSB Not yet, depending on the feedbacks I get from the first prototypes I will proceed to manufacture another 100 handmade prototypes. I will surely put up a pre-order when I'm ready but I still need to collect feedbacks and work on improvements

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@Anotheriish @ThatsADarkHorse @icactusdog @Olikus64 @PoppinJam @Kaki_64 @SSB64_EU Yes, that would be enough I think. You can write me at "[email protected]". Thank you very much!

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@ThatsADarkHorse @icactusdog @Olikus64 @PoppinJam @Kaki_64 @SSB64_EU That would be amazing. Yes, probably if someone in EU has one it would be more practical. Thanks for helping!

@ThatsADarkHorse @icactusdog The steelstick64 cap compatibility shouldn't be hard honestly. The real issue is that I don't have any steelstick cap and my attempts at contacting Linus were all unsuccessful

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@ThatsADarkHorse @icactusdog Of course, every feedback is vital at this stage in order to improve the stick even further. The fact that both your and minioh first impression are good makes me very happy tho :)

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@ThatsADarkHorse @icactusdog I hope that with some use the stick will start to make proper contact

Hell yea it's time! @ProStick64

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

@JpxSsb @Dogs_Johnson 4 prototypes were sent the same day, other 4 are on their way this saturday. Unfortunately I still don't have a waiting list up. I'm still waiting feedbacks on the very first batch, and I can't wait to see how they perform. If everything goes well I'll surely set up a preorder

[ProStick64 @ProStick64]

As promised I just made the GitHub repository of my project public. Feel free to use anything you want from here, this is and will always be an open source project.

@JpxSsb If the overall feedback is good I will surely put another 100 units or so on my to-do list. Let's hope my work will be appreciated!
