This one's a bit surreal. Fancy playing SF III: Third Strike, with a typewriter?A specially modded typewriter, that is, employing an integrated joystick with retro, arcade cabinet-style six button control...
Built by SRK member NeoBlood, writes Techeblog, the Royal Companion is basically an old typewriter that was gutted and then converted into a functional arcade joystick. The modder took the micro switches off arcade-style push buttons, glued them onto the typewriter keys, and custom-fitted an authentic Sanwa (or Seimitsu?) joystick to top things off.
Cue video of said typewriter in action...Slightly surreal to hear the old clack clack of keys. "Take a letter, Miss Jones. Oh, I see, you're playing Street Fighter 3..."
