WOW!

I'd just love to rock this controller playing Cheetamen II while wearing my 3-wolf-moon T Shirt and listening to Mark Gormley. I'd be pulling the ladies left & right for sure.

I can't imagine how anyone could play with that thing. It looks mighty unconfortable. In more ways than one.

When playing games, I sit back and lay the controller on my waist.

That dragon controller would be hella uncomfortable.

Really? I'm almost tempted to buy it if it wasn't almost $30... It's one of those things that's so bad it's good... Or at least a good conversation piece. I love shit like that, and I have been known to buy such things Wink

EDIT: But yeah, practically speaking, it's a piece of gobshite.

And what is it supposed to be?

A replica of a Vewlix arcade cabinet's control panel. The same arcade cabinet that is used for Street Fighter IV.

Hori used to be the only company that made arcade controllers with authentic Japanese parts. Then MadCatz came out with the SFIV FightSticks that not only had real parts, but had the buttons arranged like an actual Japanese Vewlix cabinet.

So, someone at over Hori decided that they weren't going to be outdone. So what did they do? They decided to make a HUGE joystick cut out from an actual section of the actual arcade machine.

And thus, this behemoth of a stick was born.
