As an avid console gamer over the past 20 or so years one company has boldly stepped out and created some of the worst controllers ever made. I remember the first time I got an InterAct controller. It was for the N64, and I took it back the very same day. Seems the analog joystick mechanics had problems that were apparently not that big of a problem to InterAct.. aiming in goldeneye was over rated anyway :roll:

After that and a bad DDR pad insedent I'd rather not talk about I've lost all faith in this "save $5, get the same quality.. Honest!" company. Thats why I was so surprised with the Ultraracer 64 controller I got today at Software Etc. for $4.99.

This controller is actually the greatest racing controller i've ever had! small, presise, programmable.. Why anyone would buy a bigger wheel without force feedback is beyond me.

Good job InterAct.. You didn't f*ck em all up.. You got the one controller right that no one gave a shit about..

There is a N64, PSX, and PC version of the Untraracer.. the N64 is what i have.

My local Meijer had clearance sale on those racing controller for both N64 and PSX. I got them because they are great to use on driving sims since I often lay on my bed while playing and most steering controller often don't sit comfortably on my belly.
