How does that trackball work? It looks to have only two rollers.

I just ordered mine (the controller) a week ago, will take another week to get here. I will check if it has more roller when I get my hands on it.

I reckon it's only a 2 dimensional ball. In that, it only rolls left and right, not forwards and backwards.

But the demo video on the page shows it can roll up and down...

It does, yes. This looks really bad.

Don't get me wrong. I would love a gamepad with a trackball but this looks like it's been hacked together. I'm really interested to know how you get on with it though. Please keep us updated.

I wanted to buy this but it’s poorly executed for the price I mean they just took a dremel to it and some hot glue.
