An odd controller for the Sega Megadrive/Genesis from a company called Triax, this was purchased from Super Games World in Middlesborough
It's main selling point was instead of the more usual D-Pad, it featured an eight way capacitive "pad" which you slid your thumb around, the action buttons are the more normal buttons we are all used to
The capacitive pad only requires your thumb to make contact with the direction you wanted, no need to press, it was claimed to stop aching thumbs
The three action buttons each have an autofire swich
The base of the controller with the finger grips
The plug, it was claimed to be compatible with Commodore and Atari systems too
