7:06 Fun fact about this game, if your mech was destroyed & you didn’t eject in time, your save file was deleted & you had to start over. No save scumming for you. Most PAX events have these setup in the free play area for training sessions & tournaments.

I bought the tony halk board from gamestop like a year after it launched for $5 and I only bought it because it came with 4 AA batterys and it was cheaper than just buying 4 batterys.

Can you tell I had the flu while editing this video?

I worked at an Electronic Boutique also known as EBgames back when the Steel Battalion controller came out and we set it up at the store during off hours and it was actually really cool

Need to see you guys do a video on Dreamcast's Seaman game. If you can find a working microphone controller pack, it could make for something entertaining lol. Or maybe a mention of it on "weirdest controller addons" or something

hahahaha I loved how Matt got all into it right at the beginning wit them Bongos 🤣

the kinect was pretty awful as a controller however there are versions of it where the drivers can be modified for motion capture for animation on windows, and i find it to be quite useful for that (with the negative that it can't capture more than 180 degrees of turn correctly).

I have a ps2 controller where each half of the controller is a gun, in the middle is a vmu style screen and the triggers for the guns are the r2 and l2 buttons. I have no idea if it works, I saw it in a chairty shop bin for 50p and like the novelty of it.

I actually had the dragon quest controller for ps3. low-key one of my favorite controllers because it was the closest I could get to that "boomerang" ps3 controller concept from e3

3:03 Love that there were people who actually brought these controllers to EVO this year.

My only question is why did Matt have 3 kids taken away

4:48 So my local LGS, Bodach’s Games in STL, has the katana controller used, complete in box for way less than that.

There was also the exercise bike controller for the Nes, extremely rare as far as I know.

day 42. they have not let me out of the This Is Basement. please send help.

I was summoned by trains. Fun train "fact" for japan. Similar to the weird life guard head bob. There was a train conductor who was losing his eyesight, but he didn't want anyone to know so he came up with a check list type system that would help him continue doing his job "safely"... sounds far fetched, but now train conductors adopted that system and they do these steps that seem almost robotic (again similar to the life guard head bob thing)

Love it guys! Just and idea... Vid on "GOOD" console rip offs??? Would love to see that! Thanks for the constant great content!

dream cast maracas yet they show ones for the wiimote

Regarding Densha De Go, I believe the first version was for Dreamcast, and it had a dedicated controller too. It also came out for Playstation 2.

Austin: Imagine showing up to a Smash Tournament with the GameCube Keyboard. Ninkendo: Been there done that

Hey my man Matt looking fly in that Genny t-shirt!!

I remember those drums I had em with my game cube

3:36 SOUL CALIBUR ON THE FISHING ROD

I'm surprised the Ion Kit for Rock Band didn't make it. Especially since it can be used on most games

Austin bud, did your last fishing trip go ok lol

I've always wondered why the picture of the video gets changed. I looked at this 4 hours ago or whatever it was and it had a different picture and a different name. I see that a lot with good mythical morning too. Is it you don't get enough clicks so you think changing the picture will help? Just wondering as of late.

0:46 Was this bearded dude even alive when this controller came out? 😂😂😂

5:28 a guy named ninkendo did exactly that, ordered the GameCube keyboard and vlogged the tourney a while back.

Funny they showed the wii maracas for the Dreamcast

Yoooo a Desert Bus for Hope shout out in a This Is video? Crossover of the YEAR right there

You forgot the best of them all. Every instrument for Rock Band and Guitar Hero as well as the DJ decks for DJ Hero.

I still have both ride and shred boards and games for my 360

Least we do not forget the Microsoft IllumiRoom which didn't really get a release and my personal favorite which I owned the Radica Gamester FPS Master.

I think I just witnessed Matts pleasure face with those bongos.

I JUST picked up the steel batallion controller at a store near me for $300 and it is in great shape... love this thing

6:09 those maracas are for the wii lol

You should have borrowed the denshade de go controller from wulff den! And the slime 1 from kevin kenson, he has the ps4 version, or spawn wave has the switch version

That subtle osrs reference

Yall forgot the Cabela top shot controller! I had one although the wii was better at tracking it was still a cool concept imo

Awesome video Boss

What if they did a bit where they had to play each other using only crazy controllers ?

I had the Power Glove!! I loved it 💯💯💯💯

i had the sega dreamcast fishingpole and fishing game i loved it

Man the editor was popping off on this video!

I had the Ride skateboard, it was such a cool idea, just horribly executed. If it had actually worked, it could have been revolutionary

The mega jockey still and are still the coolest thing I see for a game. sadly its not usable other than steel batallion. Unless someone hack it.

Original Xbox Duke. Still use it today on PC with the help of drivers and an adaptor.

One of my friends shows up to competitive Smash Bros. tournaments with the Gamecube Keyboard controller. Its his main controller lol

4:00 I feel super targeted rn...🤣

0:17 how Austin… HOW THE FUCK did you miss the chance to call them “Donkey Kongos”???? 😂😂😂😂

we really need to know more about Le Stick.

the wu-tang controller is the single best rap themed piece of memorabilia ever.

The halo and OSRS sounds are so appreciated. I hope the editor sees this!

Where's the boss coffee!? 🤣

I swear these episodes are becoming a fever dream 😂

Would the Steel Battalion controller make me good at Squadrons?

I had the Tony hawk skateboard after I stopped playing that game I used it as a balance toy

I bought the tony halk board just to hang on my wall. And I still want the Res 4 Saw Controller.

I had the dream cast fishing rod

As an owner of the Steel Battalion controller, it is literally better than ANYTHING out there.

Fun Fact: Braille Skateboarding actually drilled trucks to the skateboard and it worked SUPER well and didn't break!

Honestly, never seen some of these like the chainsaw LOL

How funny would a video where Matt isn't edited be?

You forgot one controller though guys. Hori Ace Combat 6 Flight Stick which was sold in limited quantity with the ace combat 6 on the Xbox 360. I am sad you guys did not know this existed.

"... it was the Dual Sense that we found along the way..." 🤣🤣

The Wii Baby is LEGENDARY!

Dude i think i still have that fishing reel!! hahhahahahahah

Some very interesting controllers 👍👍

the kinect was fun tho

I miss😂 donkey, Kong I remember playing it on PlayStation on the tendo so much fun in back in the day

I still have the Steel Battalion controller. It's by far the coolest controller I have ever used. Maybe not great for Elden Ring, but otherwise definitely the best controller.

I had a ps1 fishing rod controller. So immersive. Actually a good controller

i can imaging ken buy this for misery tech iam weak for shure LOL

You need the LTT bleep button, but instead of it bleeping the words, it beeps in Matts ear. [lol] Kind of like a friendly shock.

"I always practice safe wiiing* ok good to know it's safe down there🤣🤣

love the edit

Worked at Gamestop when Tony hawk came out ....... our back room was filled with those things. 🤣

Dualsense has motion control functionality

love the blue t some good old Rochester ny love the 585

Hi Matt, I've noticed that you have something on your left eyelid and I think I have the same thing than you but it's not consistant, i mean, sometimes it's there and sometimes it's not. It happens to you as well? It has a name but i can't remember it (i'm spanish btw). You and your friends make good content, keep it like that! :)

That is an impressive sponsor

ah yes i remember using the skateboard for tony hawk a longggg time ago

Left out the sega activator

Hands down! If Matt doesn’t scream 😱 in every This Is video, I’m never watching again. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love this channel! From This Is to Mystery Tech too Denki I’m all for it man!!! Thanks for making my day.

I was hoping to see the farming simulator game station as a feature lol

i had the wii baby, and like, i used it for bowling

And most of these controllers are now worth more than a full console

This was actually a funny video to watch the way these guys presented the products. 🤣

I still own the skateboard controller for the game ride for ps3

Can't forget the nintendo power pad

They totally undersold "Desert Bus" because this Free on stream game is about driving from Las Vegas Nevada to California in real time, So the destination takes 8 hours; However in order for you to not just hold the gas the whole time. the bus veers to the left and will eventually run off the road, so you need to drive the bus. If you do manage to veer off the road, then a tow truck will come for you also in real time and drag you back to the start. So say you drive for 3 hours before venturing off the road. Then the tow truck would take 3 hours to get to the bus and another 3 hours to tow the bus back to the beginning. This marvel of a game is also multiplayer so you could join your friends in a bus as you stare out the window driving for 8 straight hours, but wait there's more! This game is also available in VR haha. So congratulations you made it California. well its time to pack the bus back up and hit the road as you drive again in real time 8 straight hours on a straight road back to Las Vegas. If anything the user reviews for the game are hilarious and worth a gander haha. So yeah. . . Desert Bus

5:27 I don't have to imagine. There was a girl who legitimately showed up every week to a tournament I went to with this controller.

Hi Austin and Matt big fan

Putting the remote inside his Valley button was disgusting

You guys forgot My favorite Nintendo Controller The U-FORCE . I ordered it from the back of Nintendo power back in the day when we used to mail in for our stuff from Japan. You young ones Don't know The struggle!!!

Im happy with my 90min charging beter then the 6-7h i had befor

Damn..the Tony hawk board was from 2009? Anyways..I had one..it sucked

The power!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bro... Vegas to Phoenix is 4 hours, not 9.

I had a set of lightsabers for wii

My favorite Controller is Shield TV Controller or Xbox series X.... Also if I had the Steam Controller it and my number one favorite....
