Break out your quarters! Mad Catz promises a controller for Xbox Live Arcade games.
The controller, unofficially dubbed the Mad Catz Retro Arcade Stick, is set at $50 (it was leaked onto a gaming retailer's Web site at $70 initially) and is styled to look like an 80s-era joystick--think the Atari 2600's controller. From the looks of it, the Retro Arcade Stick should include all of the buttons and analog sticks from the regular controller. Mad Catz is packing some value into the accessory by bundling full versions of Xbox Live Arcade games as well as other promised extras--GameSpot has, um, spotted bonus arcade points and a free trial Xbox Live Gold service. We will keep you up to date on the release information and put the controller through its paces when it releases.
