From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

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.

Came here to say this. I use mine almost every day, specifically for titles that don't have controller support.

While I do prefer a twin-stick like the DualSense for games with support, you cannot at all beat a Steam Controller for strategy gaming from the couch. I'm still on my first, but have two as backup (it was limit 2 when Valve offloaded them for $5 each).
