I used to have this controller a long time ago and it was legit. It had fans on the handles so it gets rid of sweaty palms and it really did work! And if I recall correctly, the actual controller wasn't too bad. It kind of sucks that the fans stopped working and then shortly after that, it started shorting out my Gamecube whenever I connected the controller.

It is real, good luck finding one. It was basically made for PSO

I have an airflow for my PC. Thing is a champ, been through too much. One of my buddies has a PS2 airflow too. Such an amazing product.

lol'd so hard, can't imagine how it would work playing PSO. Isn't it awkward to have your hands so far from eachother?
This is my controller.
Shorthopping and wavedashing is usually harder to do with 3rd party controllers. My friend once bought a 3rd party controller for 4 bucks and the buttons felt like those stiff rubber buttons you find on older printers. Even if it looks identical to the official controller, most likely some of the buttons (for ex. L & R buttons don't have sliders) are ****ty

Lol I bought a madcatz once for guests... worst decision of my life. The analog sticks would get stuck in one spot, the buttons would make a snap sound when pressed, and the Z button fell out.
Sweet product overall 10/10. (sarcasm)

If you can take off the back, see how the buttons work. It's possible you could mod them to be a bit different.

hahah the same thing happened to me! It couldn't have been more than 20 minutes and the left stick snapped right in half.usually the biggest problem with these controllers are the analog sticks, I bought one of these
After ten minutes of fox the analog stick literally snapped. TEN EFFING MINUTES

Whats the select button for btw xD?

That thing was really only made for use with the gameboy player, thus the SNES-esque styling/button layout.

It's real Mic. I used it to play my 64 matches at apex. The best n64 controller around, only drawback is that it's on the small hands but my hands are small

Gameboy games use the select button. That's why it's on there.
I have that one in purple. It's actually very good. I used to play Soul Calibur II with it as well as various other GBA games through the GBA player.I want this one.

So true, so true.

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever tried to play Melee using that Resident Evil chainsaw controller? I imagine it would be terrible for Melee, but it would be interesting to try it out.

So many third party controllers are so screwed up that it's impossible to tell.

Unless it's a wavebird.

The Wavebird is not a third party controller.
But yeah, there are wireless third party controllers. I guess you can at least throw them at someone and give them a nasty bruise.
