The NES Max controller
The NES Max was a gamepad that was released by Nintendo for their Nintendo Entertainment System. Like many later controllers (such as the PlayStation's and N64's), it had "wings": handles that extend from the edges of the pad, making it more comfortable to hold. Unlike the standard NES controller, it had a small joystick that could be moved by the player's thumb, instead of a cross-shaped directional pad. The joystick also had a button on top of it. The controller was smaller in width than a regular controller and was slightly thinner. It also featured turbo "A" and "B" buttons in addition to the standard buttons.
The Max's official Nintendo part number was NES-027.
