Can you actually map those or are they strictly for the one game?

Still cool either way just curious

You can get a small adapter board like Teensy, so that you can plug it into a PC via USB. Not sure how much you can map, but I'm assuming so long as the buttons are all functional and recognized, they should all be usable.

Also, drat Invictus, I hope this makes your week/month!

I bought the one in the pictures, which was used literally once and then put back in the box and is complete aside from not having the oversized manual, for $310 shipped. that's $110 more than it retailed for, which, for something that is 22 years old, is not bad. I'm sure you can find one without the box for as much if not less. There's obviously idiots on ebay trying to sell MISB ones for three grand but you can absolutely find setups for around what I paid.

also, there are apparently adapters that allow you to plug it into a PC, and mods that let you use it in other games. I've heard that someone has made it so you can play Armored Core 6 with the Steel Battalion controller, which just sounds insane, but in a good way.

Steel Battalion is on my list of stupid stuff I want but won't buy because it'll just take up space. Juicero is also on that list. At least I'd probably at least try Steel Battalion once.

Eh, the terrible sequel that required Kinect on the 360 kinda killed it. The gesture tracking was both horrible and exhausting.

Thank you! They are leather, with deboss logos on the front. I will try to remember to take pictures when I get back from work, unfortunately I am two states away from home. I can't remember exactly how much but in total it was (way) more than $1,000, less than two. When Vol. 3 came out the prices skyrocketed, that one alone is close to a grand on eBay now.

^^Ciaphas Cain - I'll be honest I had to look this one up but this just tickles me: "This pattern of returning alive after being declared dead occurred often enough during Cain's career that the Munitorum made a special ruling that Ciaphas Cain is to never be considered dead, despite evidence to the contrary."

It’s extremely “Rincewind with a chainsword, las pistol, and somehow just as ridiculous of a hat”. They’re not deep books but they’re fun and treat the subject matter with exactly as much seriousness as it deserves.

I bought these stickers from Dokibird and they're super well made and adorable. I mostly bought them to support her after the bullshit she was going through, but they're also such fantastic little stickers that I'm probably gonna put some on my car.


she mentioned in one of her first streams back that she had to emergency shut down her etsy store because after the nijisanji debacle began she got 200+ orders overnight so I'm glad I got them when I did lol
