"Original control pad"

Where apart from eBay can I get an original controller, preferably as new? All I see now are the smaller S versions.

Na it's okay now, I'm buying it off Dark Mark. Thanks anyway.

Icarus, put a wanted topic on the ntsc-uk.com forums, someone there will have one.

I always thought the original controller was horrible, bulky and uncomfortable. When i got my xbox (xmas) i thought what the hell, why was the controller so comfortable. Until i figured out it was smaller, buttons were re-arranged and a totally new model, i was baffeled.

Oh and because he talked differently from the others ("DUDDDDEEE") was also funny. But that was a long time ago.

Bear in mind I was a wee kid back then, and hence had no understanding of the word humour. Michaelangelo just had the orange bandana, which was enough convincing for my little brain then.

Nah, he was so cliché. I'd either have to pick Raphael, due to his razor sharp dry wit, or Donatello for his geek-but-closet-psycho demeanor.

Leonardo was the most boring one, although he had the best weapons.

If I had to be anyone out of the series though, it'd be shredder.

I've got one. It lies unused really.

Fights over who gets the S for multiplayer...

Mmmm, no worries, I'll just add a few herbs and spices and it'll taste just fine.

They are not very edible. Just though I should warn you first.

You would be better off just buying lots of 17p noodles and 10p loaves.

Seriously, what I said below.
