Prototype "The Legend of Zelda Controller"

Kind of want? The buckle and strap seem like a bad idea, and the "grip" really should just be molded into the controller and closer to the contour, but for a vanity controller, there are some things I like.

Though since this is Twilight Princess-themed, they could've also gone with a controller with a design like Midna's mask. Would've been more subtle, maybe too subtle for mass-market I guess, but still neat.

Much shorter prongs at the top of course, set in front of the shoulder buttons.

aka 'the gimp' -- who knows what horrors its leg-brace conceals

nb, this is still more of a zelda controller than a touchscreen or a wii remote
I have a violent love/hate thing going on with you right now.

In terms of ornamental value, this could have worked better. The RE4 chainsaw is cool because its so over the top compared to the normal controller and looks amazing. The massive, asyymetrical bloody chainsaw so silly that it doesn't matter if its considerably unwieldy, as no one in their right mind would actually use it to play the games.

"The Legend of Zelda Controller" design doesn't try anything near as bold and looks like a cheap 3rd party knockoff.

The only way to stop people from 'stealing' your stories without credit is to turn those pictures into really slow moving gifs. Like you have to wait 7 seconds and some scat porn turns up.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
SF 15th anniversary controllers sucked, too bad. Long cords though, I appreciated that much at least.

Its not my stories, and its not stealing, I'm just amused at how a gaffer can post something and its on certain sites in seconds. They have eyes like a hawk.

And alas, my GIF software is still uninstalled on my new machine. Serious case of giffer's block.

Oh crap so this one was actually released!? I've never seen it before!
My local Gamestop only got one in stock. I had to convince the jealous employee to let me buy it instead of him. The best part of that controller is the start button because it's MMX's head jewel thing.

It was at the time of the release of the MMX Collection last generation.
