mad catz pro-circuit gaming controllers

the 'major league gaming pro-circuit controllers' by mad catz for xbox 360 (shown above) and PS3 feature interchangeable controls and adjustable weight cartridges


produced by american gaming accessory manufacturers mad catz, the 'major league gaming pro-circuit controllers'
for xbox 360 and playstation 3 are professional-grade modular gaming controllers, shipping with a range of parts
and accessories that let users customize their experience.

in the controllers, a range of styles and designs of d-pads and analog thumbsticks can be swapped in for one another,
in two positions on the face of the device. thus the layout of a single device can be adjusted to switch between PS3
and xbox 360 gaming.

a cartridge-based weight system allows users to add or remove up to 70 grams of weight,
while removable top and side faceplates permit the incorporation of custom skins.
the connecting cable fully detaches from the controller to ensure more secure transport.

the 'pro-circuit controllers' are available beginning the end of 2011.
