Train-Simulating Console Controllers

The Densha De Go!! Controller Brings Train Sims to the Switch

As the simulator category continues to gain steam in the gaming industry, Zuiki launched a specialty train-simulating accessory called the Densha De Go!! Dedicated One Handle Controller. The console controller, designed to work with the Nintendo Switch, brings the train simulator experience to life with its plethora of buttons and levers. The Densha De Go!! controller integrates an advanced gear system that helps the player feel immersed in the experience.

The new controller is complicated enough to feel real but intuitive enough for new players to adapt quickly. In addition, the tactility of the controller keeps the player engaged on a physical level throughout the experience. The Densha De Go!! controller will be released on August 8th in Japan. It can be ordered on the Zuiki website.
