Rare controllers and accessories
I've always been curious if anyone else out there in the world (or at least these forums) have rare controllers or accessories for video game systems in general. I'll list some of mine.
Thrustmaster - Top Gun Fox 2 Pro Flight Stick (Xbox)
Gamerster - Phoenix Revolution Controller (PS2)
Steel Battalion Controller (I know that this isn't exactly rare cause you get it with the game.)
I can't really remember any more but I had this controller for N64 that was made by DOSS. Anyway it had the colors messed up but was a fairly good turbo controller. The analog stick was red with I triangle top and I believe the c buttons were orange and the a button was yellow. I don't have it anymore because my brother got rid of it with the n64.
And since I brought up the N64 does anyone have or remember who makes the gamepad style controller for the system?

Re: Rare controllers and accessories
Welcome to the boards!
My rarest controllers are probably a white Saturn controller for PS2, and a SETA wireless controller for Famicom. I have some other obscure controllers, but these two are my favorites. My NTT number pad Super Famicom controller is purdee weird, too.

I have a Gamecube Keyboard Controller. Not particularly rare, but its awesome factor is obvious.
Re: Rare controllers and accessories
I found a programmable/turbo 3rd party Genesis gamepad at Goodwill i'd never seen before that may be rare... cause it sucks and anyone who bought it back in the day probably trashed it.

Not really that rare, but I have a motion controller for the PS2. I made a video review of it.

The rarest controller I have is an Amiga Joyboard. It's an Amiga branded controller for the Atari 2600. Essentially you stand on it and whichever way you lean presses a button. Only two games supported it. I haven't actually tried it as I'm afraid I'll break it.

Hmm, not too sure how rare they are, but I have the wireless SNES controller set by Acclaim and the NeoGeo CD style PS2 controller.
You talking about this?...

Not Dual Shock but the little known rare PSX Dual Analog.
I am the proud owner of two of these along with two PSX Flightsticks.
Throw in the first edition Interact Barracuda Controller too, for similar features.
This rare controller is the pinnacle find, affordable to any collector. hard to find but can be bought cheap since it is relatively unknown without a closer inspection.
See my Rare Dual Analog signature link.

Re: Rare controllers and accessories
I have a Steel Battalion Controller.
I also have a bunch of odd random controllers I have acquired over the years, somewhat by accident, mostly for sega genesis and n64. I doubt they are rare, but it would be sweet if they were.

Two DDR: Mario Mix dance pads.
Other than that? Nothing special.
