Diplodocus Games shared some exciting news on social networks – a pre-release patch reveal for Corn Kidz 64 on Switch will add support for Switch Online Nintendo 64 wireless controllers.
To activate the “trident controls” you’ll need to press R on the title screen. The same feature is also confirmed to be coming to Super Kiwi 64. Corn Kidz 64 is out next week for the eShop on April 19, 2024.
A pre-release patch has just been approved so I can now confirm that Corn Kidz 64 will support Nintendo 64 controllers with a unique control scheme from launch next Friday. If you have a Nintendo Online N64 controller, use the “trident of controls” by pressing R on the title screen.
Also, the same feature is planned for Super Kiwi 64, but it will take a few weeks until it is added to the Switch version of Super Kiwi 64.
