Steel Battalion

Capcom’s Steel Battalion wanted players to experience the sensation of controlling a giant walking mech aka Vertical Tank. They wouldn’t do this with a traditional controller though. Instead, Steel Battalion launched with limited quantities of a massive controller with joysticks and roughly 40 buttons for controlling their VT. The concept worked – the controller was sold out though it saw a limited worldwide re-release later.
