SWEET JLEESUS, WHAT HAVE I DONE?

 

[Hackerbilly]

Game-Luigi's Mansion
Potentiometer- To controll the sucking and blowing power of the vacuum
Verdict- required
Without them the vacuum barely sucks up anything or blows anything
(I have a controller where the little potentiometer slider things broke off so i can't use them so it just goes to button press and doesn't slide the meter)
*Fixed(the colors)

I thought that in Luigi's Mansion, if you pressed down all the way that that was it's most powerful suction. Oh well and could you colorize it, it looks better and helps sort it out.

We probably shouldn't rely on a broken potentiometer for a verdict.

Game: Need for Speed: Underground 2
Potentiometer: Controls the "intensity" of the brake and gas (like on Forza games for the Xbox360)
Button: Full pressed brake/gas

Verdict: Not necessarily required

EDIT: I've been thinking, if you could somehow make the button trigger a fully pressed resistor value to the resistor line, in other words, trick the GC into thinking the trigger is pressed all the way, THAT might work. Something for Ashen and Zenloc to look into I suppose. I personally will just keep the triggers in my portables.
