It's different. It's like a booklet of the maps not just like one map That one here from Devon and wonder one of these for a while. This is a gravis mouse stick optical joystick that connects via ADB and Effectively works like a mouse It's kind of a weird in-between the whole point of that was like even if the game didn't have joystick Capability plugged in or a built into it then there you go. It works with this very cool.
Thank you I'm going hear from Rebecca and Tony in the UK oh Yeah, there's a thing's a SciTech SP. 550 Stick and pad the gamepad attaches to the side of the joystick and vice versa or whatever so you can use it either is Just the gamepad or joystick or both together to have like more Inputs and whatnot on the joystick itself what a funky design?
