I added two more games to the OP list. Not exactly Special Editions but these two have a very unique feature. The PlayStation Analog Joystick SCPH-1110 or more commonly known as the PS1 Flightstick. Strange that neither game manual mentions this. PS1 games have an icon on the back cover.
Most PS2 games do not work with this controller. Some games that use the PS2 digital pad can work with the Flightstick in Digital Mode. However when the Flightstick is set to Analog Mode, out of more then a thousand PS2 games, there are only two that utilize this feature.
R-Type Final (PS1 Flightstick Analog Mode)One of the great SHMUPS with upgraded graphics. This game actually works in both Digital and Analog mode of the PS1 Flightstick. Analog Mode works the same as Digital, no change in movement speed in proportion to the stick movement.
The ending credits of R-Type Final has the Blueman Group song Piano Smasher.

XGIII Extreme G Racing (PS1 Flightstick Analog Mode)Also works in both Digital and Analog. In Analog Mode there is a change in movement speed in proportion to the stick. The more the stick is pushed the further the motorcycle will lean. This makes
XGIII the ONLY PS2 game that works in TRUE ANALOG with the PS1 Flightstick.
The PS1 DUAL ANALOG has the unique Flightstick Mode, enabled with a green light.Wiki originally had a third game listed which is
Metal Slug Anthology. I tested it with the Flightstick with only the Digital Mode working, Other digital pad controlled games such as
Gradius III and IV also works with the Flightstick, but in Digital Mode only. I updated Wiki to reflect this.
