Would you buy a customizable game controller? This would sit on a desk and control games via USB. Any crucial features to justify possible price?

Sorry, I used the wrong term. I mean programmable buttons or switches that just do one thing, for example turning on the engine in a car game.

There's quite a few USB control boxes available in the flight and race sim community.  Do you have something different in mind?

Good point. I was thinking about something more versatile that can be used for more than just games, and hopefully at a lower price than the mainstream boxes. I guess that would be a pretty small niche in the pc peripheral space though.
