My Weirdest Controllers (+ Patreon Update) [SSFF]

[@Exarian]

Fun fact about Mad Catz, in 2017 they went out of business but came back after line workers in their factory created a holding company to buy Mad Catz at liquidation prices, and brought the company back as a worker-owned operation that focuses on a small selection of pretty decent quality PC gaming peripherals.

[@Jerred_with_2Es_and_2Rs]

Its crazy because during the fighting game revival with Street fighter 4, Madcatz was THE maker of fight sticks, super good quality. I have owned a bunch and still use my Hello Kitty fight Stick Pro and my T.E. 2 stick to this day.

Hey Derek, glad to see you bring up the DJ Hero turntable as part of your weird controller showcase! I'm the owner of the DJ Hero Fan Server on Discord, which is the same place that hosts original non-OST mixes for the DJ Hero games. I understand that making a video on DJ Hero (or pretty much any rhythm game franchise with licensed content) is tough to justify, but in any case, you're more than welcome even just swinging by to the Discord server just to say hello! We're also able to help you out if you wanna dive into the world of custom DJ Hero content wink wink

[@MrNside]

On that fight stick. Usually on those strain relief cables, I've found that the strain relief is a separate part from cable, and the cable is just held in place by a zig-zag path molded into the plastic of the controller. If you open the controller up, you might find that you can pull the cable out of that zig-zag part and pull a little more of it into the controller. That would keep the frayed part from being exposed. Then just tuck the cable back into the zig-zag.

Derek bringing up how the DJ Hero turntable controller was PS2-compatible reminds me of the fact that the final official release for the PS2 in the entire world, Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 in Europe, came out on November 8, 2013, literally a week before the PS4 launched on November 15 (in North America). Just imagine if a publisher managed to get one more PS2 game out, because then it could have realistically come out alongside PS4 games!

That's nothing. The last Wii game was Just Dance 2020. It was released alongside the Switch version.

@@carlcouture1023 In all fairness, they're more or less the same length of time from the launch of the console (13 years). However, the Wii U had a highly truncated life, so I think it's still more impressive that the PS2 not only lasted for its own generation's life (2000-2005/2006), but literally the entire next generation's life, which was honestly longer than needed (2005 to 2013), to start with.

[@AgsmaJustAgsma]

19:37 I remember being surprised to see Activision announcing DJ Hero for the PS2 alongside a controller and other spin-off games, because back then everyone thought that Sony and other third party studios would drop support on the PS2 in 2009. I still recall reading about the tie-in to the then-latest Harry Potter movie being the very last PS2 game to ever release. Little did we expect that Sony would continue to give support to the console for four more years, to the point of still getting new releases by the time the PS4 launched. Then again, the Wii outlived the PS3, the 360 and the WiiU thanks to Just Dance, so what are console generations at this point, lol.

The Mad Cats Retro Con for PS2 also lights up real nice when plugged in, although controller dpad is a major let down making it not worthwhile. Just make sure you plug it in before powering on your console or else it will fry the power fuse in your controller ports, making some other peripherals not work anymore!

[@shadowseeker97]

I'm sorry it does WHAT

[@metalslugfest]

@@shadowseeker97 Yeah, it fried my r13 or r15 micro resistor on the ps2 board, now the ports don't supply any voltage to controller ports. There is a chance it was not the Mad Cats Retro Con, but instead the Mad Cats PS2 Steering Wheel. Either way Mad Cats are to partially blame, but I'm at fault for not following instructions to a tee. When it happened to me back in 2008 or so I did some searching and remember finding a forum explaining how certain Mad Cats controllers can fry said resistor.

So what I've read about the Saturn Twin Stick (I have one boxed up but haven't had an opportunity to mess around with it yet); the left stick works like a d pad, each of the right sticks 4 directions input a different face button (left = c for example), and then the two triggers and top buttons are inputs for the last 4 buttons (the other 2 face buttons and triggers). So theoretically it should work with every game.

[@crescentfresh8001]

The DJ Hero controller might be one of my all-time favorite controllers, now that I'm thinking about it. It just feels so good to use, it's fun to toy with even when it's just sitting there, and it lets you commit music crimes. Who could ask for anything more? (besides a new DJ Hero goddammit)

Similar to the DJ Hero controller, I have a Beatmania IIDX controller for the PS2. I think it's compatible with the Japanese Beatmania games, but only one of them came out in North America. I enjoyed it well enough. Also have to give the Maraca controllers for Samba de Amigo a shout-out. The Dreamcast bundle I got on eBay years ago had two sets of aftermarket maraca controllers, so it's technically possible to play two player if you have enough room. In reality, the ultrasonic rangefinders they use tend to get really confused when you try that, like playing the Wii in a room with bright window. My number-one most desired controller will always be the Odyssey gun controller. No way I'll ever be able to afford one, though.

One of my favorite uses for the Wii Balance Board was for a Japanese horror game called Night of Sacrifice (Ikenie no Yoru) which has Wii Balance Board compatibility so you had to physically walk in place to move and stamp your feet to run from monsters.
