Today I learned about the Jogcon controller for PS1 & PS2:

This was a dualshock where the analog sticks are replaced by a dial with force feedback, so players could play Ridge Racer and really FEEL the road as if the dial was a steering wheel. I have no clue if it was good (probably not), but I do miss a good weird controller.

I remember it being one of my favored chosen out of the plethora of random third party devices I had laying around. This was a step above Mad Catz for sure, but definitely still below the original controllers.

NYKO were a decent third party, back in the day. Not great, but a step above the competition. Downside, I don't think they ever really changed their plans that much. I swear I saw PS3 controllers with the "air cool" marketing still on it, just now with RGB through the controller!
