Seen it here like two years ago. I'm sure Scottbot can find you the thread.

Bought one of these at a thrift shop for 7$.



Pretty sure I can fit  a cheap android stick and a kade in it.
Haven't taken it apart yet so not sure if an RPI would fit.

He's standing too far from the button to play well at all. Other than that I want to try and play a game with the giant Atari controller.

Somebody needs to gut an Atari Flashback and pop it in there.

Can you imagine the thumb blisters you'd get from a giant Atari stick? Not to mention that to use the button, you'd have to be facing away from the screen  ;D

How long until the black sleeve on the joystick comes off.

Instead of getting hand cramp - you would be getting "the whole works cramp".  :lol
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

The rubber boot is a scale 6" thick man! Plenty of time to develop blisters/hernia prior to stick failure.
