Anyone notice the PS1 and Dreamcast are designed similarly in a way? (lemmus.org)

I did not, but now that you mention it...

The CONTROLLERS though...

It’s actually pretty cool to see an original Xbox controller next to a Dreamcast controller. They are incredibly similar. Both even had double card slots in the front

Then look at the Saturn 3D pad and the Dempa XE-1 AP to see the full lineage.

Sega worked with Microsoft a bit on the Dreamcast and tried to get Microsoft to offer backwards compatibility for the Dreamcast on the Xbox. It kind of makes you wonder if Microsoft copied Sega’s controller.
