This two in one combo will allow you to copy/paste, scroll and pwn some noobs. The Evergreen Navigator 365 is a 2 in 1 mouse [game pad combo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melt-mouse) for the businessman with a little kid left in him. Now when your traveling you don't need to be embarrassed when you take out your [gamepad on the plane](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8bitdo-flippad), because you'll have the concealment of a mouse with all the fun of a game pad.

Costing $30 plus shipping and handling, because the Evergreen is only available in Japan, I'm sure it will soon inspire some homeland manufacturers to pick up on the nifty idea.
