wow dude chill. It's just for show.

I would have loved to own it as well. Or even better make a bigger Autobot transformer out of a Dreamcast, turn a controller a VMU and the fishing rod into a transformer as well and have them function like blaster.

Do the same with an XBOX and you get the Decepticon equivalent.

Maybe you can have the controller, VMU, and rumble pack combine like Devastator? :D

Reviving this thread for a quick question:

Between the Mad Catz fightpad, Hori EX2, transforming wireless controller and Razor Onza, (or any other controllers I don't know about) which has the best d-pad for 2D platformers? Has anyone found the Mad Catz fightpad ill-suited for these games because of its lack of analog sticks?

I have the streetfighter 4 pad and i like it. I use it for mvc2 and mark of wolves. I also use it for Sonic Ultimate genesis collection.

I have a hori tekken 5 fight stick as well. I use it for PS3 fighters and PS2 fighters, outside of MK. Mk's control set up is not ideal for a street fighter stick.

Both are good.

My friend has the transforming pad and he says its about the same for fighters as the normal d pad, improved but not by a lot.

The solution I've been using for fighting games on the 360 is a PS2-to-360 controller adapter.
I bought a used official wired/usb 360 controller to plug into it and it works great. I can use any of the pile of PS1&2 controllers and flghting sticks I have on the 360.
