@yamatetsu, nice stuff, been keeping an eye out for the og psx analog controller like that. Was neat to learn about and watch a couple vids on that game trak.
@nitrogen_widget, never wanted one as a kid and don't think I'd invest in one now unless it was free.... maybe...
Was able to score one of these today at a resale shop for $10, had never seen one before, thumb pad is nice and feels comfortable in hand.
This was a drunk 2am ebay purchase from China, it was $3.95 nib with cheap 7 week shipping. It's the "Blaze Hyper Drive", you can see the "drive" portion with the added spring loaded analog ring around the dpad. Odd and neat piece.
good day.
