Utterly Cursed Custom Xbox Controller Replaces All the Buttons With Analog Joysticks
Just because you can do something does not mean that you should.

In addition to the controller's standard pair of joysticks, the D-pad on this special boy has been swapped out with a stick, all of the face buttons have been swapped out with a stick, all four action buttons have been swapped out with a stick, and not even the shoulder buttons were safe. So to press A, B, X, or Y, for example, you need to push the joystick in one of four different directions. The mod required lots of lots of soldering, and in some cases, strategic scraping away of sensor material so that the joysticks didn't register an input when in the center position.
