There's a great ebay auction but the problem is, he/she is selling two perfect ones, meaning there's going to be competition. I can't believe Sony doesn't have a store like Nintendo.com. For christ sake, you can still order SNES brand new OEM controllers and select game manuals from Nintendo.com!!!!!!!

If anyone's got one in great shape, I'll buy it or CML.

All the PlayStation store carries is SWAG. Semi-expensive SWAG. ;)

Wal-Mart is the only place I find PSone colored memory cards and controllers. I haven't seen grey since the PSone.

you're looking for the digital controller without the analog sticks? check pawn shops and gamecrazy.

Contrary to the above post, it actually stands for "Stuff We All Get". It was originally a term coined for all the booth freebies at various convetions, but more recently it's become a general term for gaming/geek merch, wether you pay for it or not.

i thought the word SWAG stemed from pirate heritage, where it was the treasure stolen from a town or obtained through a search. :shrugs:

i guess it's kinda the same thing, really.

I have a LIGHT gray (looks more white) colored controller that says PSOne on it and looks exactly like the PS2 dualshock controller. Though I'm not sure if you wanted the one with the analog sticks or not.

I have the original gray ones as well (analog stick ones), but I'd have to check if they still work.

There's plenty of used ones at my local EB for $3.99, check yours.

Gamerush also tends to have used ones in abounds -- I picked up about 10 or so during a sale over the summer when they had them for $0.99.

I have one, but your tradelist only has two things on it.

And of those two things is an STD! Zing!


No, seriously, though...

Could you post a link to the auction so we can see which PS1 controller you are talking about?
