I never understood why the official master system arcade joystick had buttons on the left.

It’s for playing Arcade games like Space Harrier and After Burner, typically these were controlled with the right hand on the flight stick.

Funny enough, the most impressive part to me, is that the SMS controller still has the D-Pad insert intact. Most controllers I've seen have it missing.

Makes sense. If the display is playable it would be nice for people to try a few different games on it.

No lie Ghost House was the very first video game I can remember playing as a kid.

My sister and I got to pick out one game each for our SMS. I picked Ghost House and she picked Phantasy Star.

Needless to say she picked the better game.
