It gets partial credit for at least making it fully wield-able, but drive nothing to advantage of it (because it couldn't since this was like .000000001% of all controllers made), the benefit was useless, and the downside hurt even more because of that.

Good God.
The actual Dreamcast controller was a fucking mess, fight me about it. Such a garbage blob.
