Get a unique look at how controllers evolved into intricate devices, transforming games into immersive tactile adventures. Join our virtual CT scan journey through Xbox, PS5, and SNES gamepads.

While you could achieve a lot of this with my new invention the screwdriver (patent pending), these scans look pretty cool and you can also non-destructively inspect parts like the batteries, which it would otherwise be unwise to disassemble and reassemble.

I want that 90s/00s see through tech to make a comeback.

Step 1: Commit crimes.

I know I'm super boring, but I personally never liked see-through cases. I'm not techy enough for any of the hardware to mean anything to me, so it just looks like robot guts. Occasionally I've had to take controllers apart for cleaning or replacing membranes, but while it was fun seeing the insides, I wouldn't want it all day.

How can "robot guts" and "boring" be in the same comment?! Lol

I got a specific case with a clear back for my switch and got a fancy sticker that looks like the switch guts on the back just so it looked see through haha, love some robot guts
