@robinhoodie#8866 Very easily in fact! I'm super bad with this type of stuff and it was pretty straightforward 
I hated this thing. Now people (collectors?) are paying $50 for them. The dpad is a touchpad, which maybe was cool and high tech in 1992 but it also has the responsiveness of a 1992 touchpad. It's not good for anything except Zangeif command throws.
A friend showed me this one and that D-pad looks like a really miserable time XD

Dang, that raised disc means business. I actually kind of miss completely superfluous visual details like that - or did it rotate!?
@exodus#9474
oh man it does rotate. If you want to look it up, it's the QS-1186.

No More Numb Thumb.
My simultaneous favorite/least favorite is the Dragon Quest Slime controller for PS2
It looks SO GOOD! But has two CRITICAL FLAWS. First, after ~15 years the rubber coating that went over it has started breaking down on every one, resulting in a sticky mess that picks up dust/dirt and you'd feel like you have to wash your hands the moment you touch it. I was able to wash it off using rubbing alcohol and now mine is shiny and not as great looking as it once was, but at least it's not vile and gross.
Second, the cable that plugs into the back of the controller and lets you plug it into the PS2 is a little janky. I've had it come loose and it's messed me up enough to discourage me from ever using it again.
BUT IT'S A SLIME! I LOVE SLIMES! I WANT ALL THE DRAGON QUEST IN MY LIFE.
I know there was a PS4 version that came out a couple years ago, but I avoided it out of fear that it would someday get gross and sticky like the PS2 version...
wait, are you saying the slime controller… turns into slime!? that does sort of seem like a feature rather than a mistake
When I think little brother controller, I think of this!
That little, literal PEEN sticking out the center of the control stick was painful and stupid. What were they thinking?

As a nostalgia binging retro gamer, things I've yet to revisit in my life become few and far between….
Alright, 18 months later... I had forgotten this thread and was about to make a new one called "here's your controller, bro"...
@"tapevulture"#p8509 Both of the N64 contollers in your post are called Superpad. And yes I am very familiar with all the crappy N64 controllers we had. But the bottom, boomerang shaped one is the InterAct superpad....
This is a post about the sequel to the N64 InterAct Superpad-- The Gamecube InterAct Superpad.
The year is 2001. I am 10 years old. PS2, Xbox, Gamecube hype is peaking. Everything is black. Everything is black. Everything is black. Deep black. Jet Black. Slightly Greenish Black. Electroniques Botique had a special Gamecube bundle deal where you choose two launch games and get a free controller. I got pikmin and luigi's mansion, because smash bros. wasn't out yet.
The bundle came with an InterAct Superpad. This controller fills me with unique memories and feelings; the severe blackness of that year.
Even the control stick is black.

My memories of this pad drove me nuts for years. I remembered the bean-shaped B button. When I saw the prototype gamecube controller for the first time, it reminded me that I had a controller like that. Was it the prototype all along?
Well now that I finally found it, I can assume that InterAct had designed their controller when the gamecube was first shown in prototype form. By the time smash released, I remember playing as black marth and thinking how cool it is that he matched my controller and jet black gamecube. The black stick is a nice touch. The upper bulk of the controller and fat c-stick matches marths shoulder pads and directional aerial attacks. That was the day I realized the true coolness potential of absolute black.

(pretend marth is at Final Destination. It was surprisingly hard finding proper black marth images on google) He's glossy, nothing cooler. His design would never be this cool again.
The hard-wired rumble off/on switch is a thoughtful feature that I've never seen on a controller again. Basically everything about this pad is pretty great aside for the d-pad, which sill may be better than the weirdly tiny oem gamecube d-pad. For everything that the Madcatz microcon was, this was the opposite. It makes the OEM gamecube controller seem like the little brother controller by comparison. Maximalism, fully rubberized sticks, good in the hands, radial buttons, eight foot long cable, and one of the only gamecube controllers that beefed up the c-stick to proportion with all the other dual analog controllers. It's the Xbox Duke controller of Gamecube controllers. To the point where thinking about Xbox launch nostalgia had me thinking of this gamecube pad. Because I never found it until now, it is cemented in my mind as the xbox launch window gamecube controller. It's big, and black. We still had high hopes for the gamecube to be the edgy adult-oriented nintendo system. It was jet black, after all.
There are quite a few on ebay for less than $20 shipped. I don't need it taking up space in my life though. Someone here should order it though.[ Good luck finding a better deal.](https://www.ebay.com/itm/154819330843) It also comes in indigo and clear.
I actually have an idea for a semi-terrible possibly legendary controller design with moving parts based on my desire to have more buttons available for mapping when playing mecha games. I would call it the CRUSH Controller
But when will the time come for me to chase my dreams for real?

@“treefroggy”#p11035 I had one of these but I actually loved it, especially for Smash Bros. I think I particularly liked the shoulder buttons for some reason.
