Turkish company TR has announced it is launching an IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign for its new Octopus Fight Stick controller.
This bespoke stick will work with Dreamcast, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PC, MiSTer and more, and uses a wired connection to keep input latency as low as possible.
Analogue and digital control modes are available, and you'll be able to change the face plate to suit your own personal taste.
However, the most exciting feature, in our opinion, is the built-in Dreamcast VMU (complete with a backlit screen), which offers storage space for ten separate memory card profiles. That could make this the ultimate fighting controller for Dreamcast fans.
The campaign kicks off on November 18th.

Technically it would need 2 analogue sticks to be fully compatible with every fighting game.
Remember SNK Heroes on the Switch? Well that game likes to be special where you have to wiggle the right stick to use items (oh, and this function can't be changed in the control settings).
To be fair, I suspect the game developers didn't want you to use an Arcade Stick.
This looks cool I use my Dreamcast arcade stick all the time so it’s taken a bit of a beating over the years would love one of these as a replacement and the built in vmu is an amazing idea
Looks nice, but I'd much rather just have a slot for a VMU than a built-in one. That seems far more versatile and would cost less.
Looks pretty cool for what it is.
