Get a load of this thing:

How can this possibly be any good for any first person shooter? What a piece of crap and a dumb idea!

...... any way we can use this with Mame?  ;D

Don't bother.... Like you said, it's a piece of dumb ass crap!

They were originally released by Act Labs a few years ago. Nobody bought them because they're so crap. Leaning a gun from left to right on the desktop like a joystick is hardly FPS.

Most bottles and jars contain at least twenty-five percent recycled Pacman.
And research indicates that Space Invaders are strongly attracted to people who have recently eaten meat pies.
