At first glance, this looks like an ordinary DualShock controller. But in reality, this is the Dual Analog, which preceded the aforementioned controller that thankfully, has kept its design mostly intact. And because Sony made them for less than a year before discontinuing, it's a rare find. The fact that the DualShock is commonly tagged as dual analog by sellers make this item also hard to find. Some sellers don't even know the difference. My seller did, but thankfully, he charged a fair price nevertheless. The grip handles are bigger and much better than the DualShock, and the analog grips are also great. They look different than the DualShock 1, 2 and 3, and more similar to the DualShock4, the middle part being concave. There's a ridge on the L2 and R2 buttons and the top section where those buttons are housed are slightly smaller. Also interesting is the fact that there's an extra function available when you mash the analog button, where a green light shows up and from what I understand the controller can be used as a more portable PlayStation joystick for flight simulators and some Japanese games. Also, the DualShock was not a replacement for this controller just because it added the vibration function. Strangely enough, the Dual Analog was released with the vibration function in Japan, but the feature was removed when the controller made its debut in North America and Europe. This is not only a rare controller and a great conversation piece, but it offers a different experience than the DualShock, and yes, I'm talking about the extra long grip handles. It just feels so much more comfortable - it feels right. I'm glad that I have purchased this controller and much happy to use it when playing my old PlayStation games. Wikipedia has a page on the Dual Analog and there's some stuff about it in the form of saved web pages from the era, check it out, it's very interesting.Read full review
