I've been surfing on the web, and the software for your controller is the
same that mine uses, although I haven't found where to get it. Also, now
that you mention your make and model, I'm thinking that it is the one that
Thomas Ward did a write-up on, although I don't recall where it was posted.

I have the same one, but I'm not sure what it is either. I wanted to say
philip 2909 but that's probably not right. I bought it at walmart probably
10 years ago.

Rummaging through a box of stuff I had packed when moving into this
house, I have come across a game controller. I think that Thomas Ward
did a review of it once, but I don't recall which model this is, or
anything about it. I'll describe it below in hopes that this indicates
what I have. The question is this: Is this an adequate controller for
the currently accessible games for blind gamers. I'm still using Windows
XP. Here's the description:
The USB cable is retractable and the button to retract it is immediately
to the right of the cable. Along this same surface are 2 buttons on the
left edge and two more on the right edge. This surface faces away from
the gamer.
On the top surface on the left is a set of 4 sort of long buttons that
look like they might be arrows. These are just forward and to the left
of a round knob that can be moved in any direction and also clicks when
pressed straight down. There is another identical knob to the right of
this one. Between these knobs is a set of 4 buttons in a diamond
pattern, the rightmost one feels like an arrow that points to the right.
To the right, and slightly ahead of, the right hand knob mentioned before
is another set of 4 buttons that are a bit bigger and are round, in a
diamond shape. Northwest and northeast of the center set of buttons, is
another small button. Between these two buttons is an oval-shaped,
convex glass or plastic piece that does not press. I'm thinking it is
some visual indicator of some sort. Finally, facing the gamer are two
handles with which to hold the controller.
Any feedback on this is appreciated.
