Coding Horror: The Ultimate Software Gold Plating: Jeff wrote in support for an analog rotary controller … that did not exist. Neither Atari nor third party manufacturers produced such a controller in the Jaguar’s heyday. Jeff, as I understand it, hacked his own together by wiring an Atari paddle controller into a Jaguar controller.

As someone who likes to take the time to make sure that things are done right where possible as opposed to making them just work, I find this story fascinating.
