I actually found one of these in the MOMO Racing Wheel box that my uncle gave me, among the wheel and pedals. It's such an awkward controller, lacking a good analog stick and a decent D-pad. It was great for fighting games and assorted things, perhaps Doom, I may have to try it with Doom.
Post your old controllers/wheels/hardware ect. that you would like to show off.
At least try to find a pic, Google, or even take one yourself if it's so rare you can't find a picture.

Holy shit, I had the exact same one. Never used it for gaming though, we hid in cardboard boxes, cut a hole into one side and acted like we were in a plane :v:
Anyway, I'll present the NES-controller, the most simple controller ever created with a D-pad.

does anyone know how the console is called with those controllers shaped as digital cameras?
Collecovision's controller is da shit.

Still got my Gravis Thunderbird kicking around. This thing was a blast when playing Earthsiege 2 and F-15.

It works to an extent if you can look at it long enough without getting a headache. But yes, the 3D works if I remember it all correctly. It looked pretty badass.

These are worth serious money nowadays as they're so rare.

How is he a jerk? It's still aging hardware, no matter weather you use it or not
I have very fond memories of being honored to own a Forte VFX1 VR system....at the cost of getting it six years after it came out and for $300. D:

Back in the days of the GeForce2 and the Athlon it was awesome and a half.
I think I still have a custom made script that made it wirk with the old non-steam Half-life. Ah yes, so much trial and error work...
On the coolness scale the VFX1 hits a perfect 10 out of 10

Oshit, I have one of those in my basement! I sued to play Future Cop with it.
I got a nice Adaptec SCSI controller few days ago, sadly it's the crappier but newer version what I have installed so it's waiting for real usage in the drawer.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you

Good times.

I would buy one but the small space in front of my monitors is already packed with docks, keypads and my G15.
Also, $150. :aaa:

That looks pretty awesome, but the fact that it uses airplane joysticks and racing pedals doesn't make any sense.

You know that most helicopters have pedal control, right?
