The Holy Grail of Nerdness

I played a few of the video games belonging to the kids around the household back when the input device was a joystick with a button or two on it, but had lost interest by the time the controllers started getting complex. If they were all like this one, I think that all but the hardest core would do the same, and this doesn't strike me as much better, altho I can at least see the reasoning behind it.
