While the news that the 360 as a platform is seeing more support from Japanese developers, we do wish that that support was coming to these shores. In a move that reminds us of the good old days of huge and unnecessary controllers with even more unnecessary features (hit eject or lose you game save!) the release of Otomedius Gorgeous! will be accompanied by a, ahem, Hyper Stick Pro. Otomedius Gorgeous! is a port of the partially touch-screen controlled popular Japanese arcade shoot ‘em up, and to emulate the touch screen the Hyper Stick actually includes a built in touchpad just for this game.

As we said, it seems rather unlikely that this title and its crazy controller will hit western shores, but the above picture reminded us heavily of some of the best overblown controllers of our happy memories. True they are absolutely unnecessary for most any other game, but these things had a charm all there own, and practicality isn’t one of them. *Sigh* Oh well, you can still check out the hilariously awesome trailer after the break.
