How the heck are you supposed to hold this thing?

EDIT: Linkage for those interested http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3521

[SneakyPenguin]

Who cares? That thing looks awesome!

[RedvsBlue]

YES a controller dripping blood!!! The concept picture looked cool but this is even better.

[jetsetradio21]

That is still the most hardcore controller I've seen to date :shock:

Left hand on black handle, right hand at the end of the chainsaw (?)

[CaseyRyback]

Must. . . have. . . controller!!!

[SteveMcQ]

I'd imagine you hold it like a chainsaw. But that's just me.

[guyver2077]

is there a link to the product?

[xzafixz]

is there a link to the product?

Eh, sorry about that, link added to OP.

[guyver2077]

k kool. well i noticed gamestop has it for 29.99

I wouldn't trust Gamestops price on it, it looks fairy large and quality, I doubt it would be under 40.

[jbroush99]

What is Nuby's track record with their controllers? Do they break easy or cause problems with your Gamecube?

It would look sweet sitting on your shelf, especially when family comes over and you have a bloody chainsaw on display.

[JimmieMac]

Looks like the blade part comes off for game play but you can put it back in and then on it's stand that it's sitting on when're not playing it.

[CaseyRyback]

I think the price may be accurate. NubyTech really does not make the most quality products.

as much as I want this, it will probably just end up being a mantle piece (meaning I may wait until a price drop)

Its mostly air and cheap plastic, it can't be that expensive. Its not like theres hardcore technology in it like a bemani controller.

[RedvsBlue]

Imagine children coming home with this controller. Parents everywhere will flip out. Can't wait.

[FriskyTanuki]

Doesn't Nuby make the DBZ controllers? If so then I don't trust them as I've bought two and they've broken relatively quickly without much tossing around done. I stick with the Sony-brand controllers, which takes abuse more easily.

[Alpha2]

considering it's for a game children shouldn't even be playing I think we'll be ok.

[guyver2077]

"officially licensed"

[tholly]

that is the coolest controller ever.....if i was into resident evil i would have to get that

[CaseyRyback]

"officially licensed"

that means a lot to me personally. Nintendo has really good quality control, so I have a feeling I can trust this to be a good product

Hope it ends up being half as nice as the Onimusha sword

[Duo_Maxwell]

I still think using the free aim in RE 4 will be quite hard with this controller

[willardhaven]

Am I the only one who thinks this is an ugly heap of plastic??

I'm a big RE fan, but I'm not a fan of this controller.

[DrunkTigerWoods]

Looks cool, but I don't think I'll be purchasing.

Um...wrong forum, at least pretend you have a GameCube and say Nintendo brand controllers. Or don't show your specific bias and say, "I stick with first-party controllers" (I always do, I found out the hard way that 3rd party controllers can't be trusted).

Methinks I would greatly hurt myself if I pressed the wrong button.

[float_on64]

there are more uses to this then we can possibly imagine (Looks Hopeful)

[Mouse]

Well, I (finally) played the demo at my local gamestop, and I think it may be possible to play it with that chainsaw. You really only use the control stick, A, B, and L. It certainly seems feasable, even though I can't imagine anyone wanting to.

[el bobo]

Wow, that is very "unique."

Quite possibly the strangest controller to ever come out.

[Mookyjooky]

Im not gonna say it? Anyone else?

[Scorch]

Old? Repost? What aren't you going to say?

[Mike23]

"Now the leg, ah?"

[zionoverfire]

Old? Repost? What aren't you going to say?

Well I don't think the controller was posted before, just a diagram of what it would look like.

[Cracka]

i want one of these.... and i have no clue why..

looks like it would be hard to use... also i'm not that big of a fan of resident evil but i want to try that controller...

[Grave_Addiction]

Has this pic been around for awhile? Today was the first time I've seen it.

[LinkinPrime]

[snotnose_colossal]

wasnt this posted 2-3 times already?

[Scorch]

It was posted two other times, yeah. One of the other times is still on the first page of the Gamecube forum.

[guessed]

$50? Glad I preordered mine when GameStop had them marked for $30 (they upped the price to $50 now). I guess I won't be cancelling after all.

[gmzone]

Who is going to buy this?

Tackiest Controller... Ever! (http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/250699.asp)

[guessed]

Yep, had one pre-ordered for a while now. :D

[screwkick]

Wow, how the hell would you hold that thing?

Still...the original XBOX controller still wins for worst controller ever. :wink:

[nickmad]

that is terrible

[CaseyRyback]

I plan on getting it when the price drops

[RedvsBlue]

Worst Repost Ever

Normally I don't call people on reposts but you insulted the fun controller.

[Mouse]

The controller looks like fun... Don't be hatin. Yeah, and we had a huge thread on this well over a month ago. Don't mean to be mean, but like RvB, I'm defensive about the cool looking chainsaw controller.

[mtxbass1]

Agreed. Welcome to.....november. http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=37885&highlight=chainsaw

[zewone]

I think it looks pretty shitty.

[evilmax17]

Yeah, it would look good on a bookshelf, perhaps as a convorsation piece. But please, it doesn't look like it would actually control the game well, much less sit comfortably in your hands for more than 10 minutes.

[heavy liquid]

I'll buy it if/when it comes down in price.

[willardhaven]

I tried to explain to people that it is a horrible looking piece of junk in the other thread, but nobody listened... I support this thread.

[plastikpyro]

is it wireless?

[enlightenedgamer]

Hey... easy on the Duke :(

I use an S for everything except FPSs. My hands are pretty big and I like the longer travel of the sticks on the original. I also pull the triggers with my middle fingers and use my pointers for stability. They don't really have as good of a place to rest with an S.

I can't imagine playing DOAU with those mushy face buttons, though.


RE4 is gonna be great. Fedex should have it on my doorstep tomorrow :)

[willardhaven]

an S?

[Pure Apathy]

That controller would be way too weird to use. It just looks too awkward.

[strayfoxx]

Anyone think this will be worth anything in the years to come??

[NintendoFanGirl]

Topic merged.

[GizmoGC]

Anyone see one yet?

[gmzone]

This thing looks like it might be 100 pounds. Good luck to anyone who buys this and can actually hold the thing and play the game with it.

[NintendoFanGirl]

I don't think it is released until some time in Feb.

[doubledown]

I saw one in STUFF magazine I think.....looks kinda crazy. Nice novelty item I suppose.

[Santurio]

Iwant one..................but not for $50!!!
