Just as a fun fact, it’s actually quite common for industrial machinery and the like to be controlled with a gaming controller. Like, a hundred things wrong with the submarine trip - but the PlayStation controller is genuinely one of the more legitimate aspects.

They’re simply made well, easy to use, and typically extremely durable and long lasting.

Yes they're used, but they're not THE ONLY method of control as it was in this disaster of a sub.
