New Details on ASCII's 6-Button Fighting Pad

Japanese price and details revealed

Online retailers NCS have updated us on the status of ASCII's six button Saturn-style Dreamcast controller. The controller has six buttons across the front, allowing users to easily pull off moves in fighting games that require the six button configuration, and it does away with the analogue pad, allowing for a more comfortable fit in the hands of the player. What's interesting, and not at all apparent in the picture above, is that the controller features a slot for the VMU, as well as built-in vibration functions.

This wonder peripheral will be available in Japan on November 25 for the price of 2,980 yen (around £17).
