5 Super Weird Video Game Controllers
Some weird video game controllers are that way for how specific they are, and others because you just have to wonder who they are even for.
In a world where innovation is key, sometimes gaming companies will throw any idea over to their production and manufacturing department and they’ll just run with it. Sometimes we end up with a spark of genius, but most of the time we get these weird video game controllers.
The NES Power Glove
One of the most iconic gaming controllers ever, the NES Power Glove even made its way into a few Hollywood productions.
It was what the 80s wanted video games to be. It was the first step into interactive gaming. The Power Glove walked so the Nintendo Wii could run.
Cabela’s PS3 Top Shot Elite Gun
After the days of the SNES Super Scope started to wane, Cabela’s wanted in on the action. Cabela’s offers quality hunting, fishing, camping, recreational shooting, and outdoor gear at competitive prices. And also the PS3 Top Shot Elite Gun Controller uses a sensor bar to detect the shots.
It only works with the Cabela’s branded games: PS3 Cabela’s African Adventures, Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2013, Cabela’s Hunting Expeditions, Cabela’s Survival Shadows of Katmai, Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2012, and Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2011.
RailDriver USB Desktop Train Cab Controller
As far as weird video game controllers go, the RailDriver USB Desktop Train Cab Controller is pretty top-tier. It’s technically just a keyboard with a super weird layout, but that only means you could technically play any game on it!
We already had someone play Elden Ring on a Ring Fit, so why not with the RailDriver Controller?
Sega Dreamcast Fishing Controller
Fishing minigames pop up all over the place. If only you could use this Sega Dreamcast Fishing Controller in any other system, you’d be getting much more than a C+ on all of your Sea Bass.
PS2 Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw Controller
If anyone says anything about how impractical this controller is, they will be my first target with this thing. Yes, it’s incredibly unwieldy and an ergonomic nightmare.
