The '''Hori Mini Pad''' (also sometimes called the Hori Pad Mini and the Hori Mini) is a second party [[Nintendo 64]] controller that was released exclusively in Japan by Hori late in the Nintendo 64's lifespan in several color variants. Unlike the first party controller, the Mini Pad comes with two [[Z button]]s as opposed to one, and as such, two Z buttons are allowed on custom button layouts. Due to its scarcity, it has become a rare find and is highly sought after by competitive Nintendo 64 tournament scenes and collectors due to its high quality for a second party controller, to the extent that it is often referred to as the gold standard of Nintendo 64 controllers as well as one of the Holy Grails of gaming controllers in general. As such, it rarely appears in secondhand markets, and is typically sold for much higher than its original asking price. Despite its reputation, the controller isn't without its flaws. Its notably small size can cause it to be difficult for some people to hold. Additionally, the control stick, like other second party controllers, is noticeably more sensitive, which can make some games harder to efficiently play. | The '''Hori Mini Pad''' (also sometimes called the Hori Pad Mini and the Hori Mini) is a second party [[Nintendo 64]] controller that was released exclusively in Japan by Hori late in the Nintendo 64's lifespan in several color variants.
