Weird controllers that defined modern gaming

Game controllers have been around for as long as games have… But weird controllers have probably been around for longer. Let’s try a few for ourselves…

2:35: "Now, true 3D games weren't a thing on the MSX or Megadrive in 1989"

 

It seems that MSX Elite came out in 1987, at least.

@GabenJr Have you ever seen the Radica/Gamester "FPS Master" controller?

I had one of these back in the OG XBOX days for playing "BLACK" as it actually worked really well for FPS style games like that, Also one of the first ever controllers I saw with buttons inside the grips.

I wanted to see Anthony call the number on the Turbo controller box and try and get his money back.

This thing has a very Star Wars aesthetic. I like it. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.
