is this controller good?

I mean, ergonomically ? It seems strange to hold.

i think its sequentially just a prototype dreamcast controller. ive never held one but look at the back of it.

it's the best controller of all time and it's not particularly close

the bottom is like outrigger shaped so you can hold it just fine

except for genesis 3-button and whatever the fuck the US Saturn pad was, and the dreamcast pad.

If only DC had lived long enough to get a controller revision, could have had something really good, instead you get those awful buttons and d-pad. Saturn 3D pad kicks it to the curb.

Just wish there was an adapter for Saturn to Dreamcast that didn't turn the 3D controller into a driving wheel. Literally one controller choice away from greatness.

I frequently state how much I wish Sega stuck with that design when they made the Dreamcast controller though. Dork.

Arcade ports and fighters. Sega was always interested in that stuff.

>> No.4554039

would you believe that in 1999-2000-ish you could buy Saturn stuff from EB for mere pennies?
I bought two analog controllers, Legend of Oasis and Magic Knight Reyearth all for less than ten bucks back then. Fucking N64 shit still cost more at the time.

Not only that but the triggers and stick all use hall-effect sensors so they will almost literally never wear out.

Now THAT is awesome engineering.

Is the white with color Saturn Japan-only? Or did they exist in America? Back then I only remember seeing black in the US.

>> No.4557807

>>4557789
JDM only. Matches their Model 2 console which is white with fuschia eject button, model 1s were mid-grey with blue buttons. Then you get into the Victor and Hitachi variants, "This is Cool" skeleton grey model and no doubt countless others.

Those guys sure loved the Saturn.
