The Negcon launched 1995, and there were a number of games compatible with it that released prior to the dual analog controller (e.g. Ridge Racer, Wipeout). These were also playable with a joystick on a conventional gamepad, as there were third party gamepads that used the Negcon protocol.

There were a lot of later PS1 games that had DualShock support. Sony probably required developers to support them. Not many games actually required them. Tomb Raider stuck with the d-pad.

Interesting. The Sega Saturn 3D pad had a similar function. All Sega racers that supported the Sega racing wheel is supported in a special analogue mode. though it doesn't support the analogue triggers. Just the stick. Which is still pretty fucking cool.

The wheel itself is actually pretty cool, it's designed to sit under your thighs so you don't need a desk for it or anything.

I remember playing FFVII using a third-party gamestop controller, instead of using true analog it just mapped the d-pad to the analog stick so I could still use the analog stick for movement

This caused the dualshock to go bananas if you turned analog on.

Didn't a lot of games just treat the analog and dpad as the same thing?

They're impractical. Tomb Raider didn't handle well with analog sticks until Crystal Dynamics rebooted the series with babbies in mind.
TR3, TR4, and Chronicles, all had the option of analog control, but it sucked shit because the engine is designed for D-Pad or keyboard.
