Steel Battalion Controller VJing

Japanese "visual performance unit" Bonsajo jurry-rigged Capcom/Nude Maker's expensive Xbox controller setup for Steel Battalion to serve as a video mixing tool. As Mecha Damashii points out, it makes sense considering all of the custom controller's buttons, sticks, and switches (I don't think the pedals are used).

By hooking the "Vertical Tank cockpit simulator" up with a copy of VJ software VDMX, Bonsajo is able to fade, scratch, color, and manipulate videos in lots of other ways. Plus, I bet the LEDs on the buttons look really neat when you're fiddling with the setup in a dark club.
