Anyone use one of these?

Is it worth hunting one down nowadays for racing games?

I've heard that this is the best gamepad for fans of racing games, as it has better precision than a traditional analog controller due to the wider radius of rotation that you can twist it.

I tried one at a convention once. I thought it was cool but I wouldn't hunt one down. It's kind of fucked up. It's neat/cool but don't buy one for reseller prices before trying one out yourself.

There are decent steering wheels for PS1 but at one early stage this was the case since its only competition was the Uniracer, which is also a pretty okay steering controller. The NegCon is a unique feeling especially on Wipeout.

I have one of those, not a bad controller. Sadly it's the only working SNES controller I have right now.

How do you manage to break a snes controller.

Ignore the plebs in this thread, if you're interested in hitting top tier times in Wipeout games, ridge racers etc then a negcon is an essential purchase. In wipeout for example being able to control nose dipping separately to left right steering allows you to hold the best lines when cornering etc on top of the analogue nature of it removing jerky movement. TL:DR if you're serious about wipeout/ridge racer get one if not it's not essential.
