I've seen a couple of these in my area for about $10. Who made them and what's the value of them? They seem like they'd be useful.

Edit: After a quick google image search I'm leaning toward the possibility that it may be custom made. However, I know that I've seen another one just like it at a local pawn shop. It didn't have any stickers or labeling on the top of it either. I'm sure someone can either confirm or reject the possibility of this being a 3rd party item.

I've seen A LOT of controllers from around the world and have never seen this one. Is it on ebay?

The buttons are true arcade buttons. It is most likely a custom unit or one that was made by a company that made custom joysticks and even they usually brand them.

Thanks a lot for that information. I think I'm going to buy one of them and see who makes it and how easy they are to use. Thanks for the info.

It looks custom to me but it's hard to tell for sure from the picture. I built one out of a priority mail box once :)

In the Ceres area by any chance?

Yeah. That's the one. I totally forgot about it and I never gave the guy a call back. I'll have to call him today if it's still not gone. It's not $10 but I've seen a couple others at the local video game store for $10.
