Title: Turbo buttons
Post by: Darth Xanax on December 23, 2005, 07:21:04 pm

I remember back in the days of the super Nintendo they had a little box
that you can plug your controller into and then plug the device into the Nintendo
and let you make all the buttons Turbo buttons.  It also let you program moves
for games like street fighter I can't remember what the name of it was though
I currently have a controller for the PlayStation 2 that does not have Turbo buttons.
Do they have anything like that for the PlayStation?  I just got God of war
it's a total button mashing game I have limited use of one of my arms so
games are hard enough for me I really need Turbo buttons please help.

I have a RAVE playstation Control panel (arcade) 2 player
It has a turbo button ( programable)

I am sure I have seen gamepads with them also.
I do not have any. ( I just buy the cheep $5.00 to hack)

The  pic of the watermelon is linked to a wmv movie of its actual use.
When news first started going around we all thought it was a joke, but the product is for real.

Holy! I remember seeing that too, and thinking it was a joke, but I just went out to the Horistore, and see you can now order it!   :o

Well, i got an old SNES/SEGA/PS joystick that not only had 3 speeds of turbo, but it was programable too! (easy to do Masters of Teras Kasi 10 hit moves), several cheap PS1 joysticks that made all buttons turbo, and a PS1/2 controller as well.  Check gamestop for them.

The vibrating finger figures the perverted Orientals would come up with something like that
anyone else have any other alternatives in mind?
