4 weirdest peripherals that actually made games better
A trend in gaming that has mostly gone away is the special peripherals, usually in the form of novelty controllers, that sometimes come out alongside new games. The most popular of these, and the one responsible for their decline, are the Guitar Hero guitar controllers, which are almost life-size and shaped like a guitar. There are two major components that contribute to the cult classic status of some of these, which are usability and novelty. The best controllers were often one or the other, but the cream of the crop managed both. These days, the closest we have are the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons, or some of the classic controllers available for the Switch, like the GameCube controller. For this list, I went with ones that managed to do both, at least for some games.
