I'll get some pictures up and a count tomorrow so you know what you're getting. I *think* I have either 50 or 100 of each, and I still want some for myself for the future.

Also, since this is all free, I'm going to be a nazi about this. I ship to members I feel will use them on projects that won't be scrapped or forgotten about, and, most likely, I'll ship to members who didn't ask for three portables worth.

I mean, seriously.

That's 14. I think the N64 wins for feasible portable with the most buttons. Why does anyone need 25?
Yeah, thats kinda what I was thinking when I came to this thread yesterday. I was going to ask for some but after I saw all that craziness, I figured you were already going to be out. Crazy, isn't it? I did this with some LEDs quite a while back and yup, free stuff goes FAST.

By the way, I want 65 if that's okay. I need them for my new NES portable - It has extra A and B buttons so they are comfortably accessible in ANY position/orientation. :D I'm kidding of course..

I'm making an N64 portable, among my current projects. You can check the worklog to see the work I've done so far. That's why I wanted 15, 14 for the buttons and 1 in case I screw up. I'd be happy to pay. Do you accept Paypal?

I do! Are they the "soft" kind? The type that feel like the original controller?

Okay. I have two types and a count of each.

Type 1) Standard tact switch. Button is about 1-1.5mm tall.

Type 2) Surface-Mount tact switch. Total height is about 2-2.5mm, and the width/height is standard. 1/4 - 1/2 mm of depression when the button is pressed. ie. Not a lot, but will make for a slightly slimmer portable, and quicker repetitive presses.

Type 1 Quantity up for grabs: 75ish (Total 102)

Type 2 Quantity up for grabs: 33ish (Total 53)

As you can see, I ordered 100 and 50 of each, and never touched them. So they might as well be put to good use, minus a few for the future.


Since I don't care too much about the money, anyone insisting on paying me can do it through eBay, to give me some positive ratings, if they feel like it.

I would ask if it is possible for me to get 3 of Type 2, and 2 of Type 1

To save me time and trouble and all that, whoever wants some should send me a PM with the amount and address, postal/zip code and such. That includes people who have already posted, sorry about that! But I'm really lazy when on break.
