July 29, 2007 in Top List comments 18

Following Revolution takes a look at the top 5 video game accessories of all time. Not necessarily naming a specific accessory such as the first party Guitar Hero controller, this article looks at types of accessories instead, going back to the GameBoy and up to today! As an added bonus, FR even takes a look at the absolute worst gaming accessory of all time!

    Number one: Controllers?

    Wow, that was pointless.

    Haha, got that right. The rumble feature and the worm light accessories...I took advantage of those for sure.

    I liked the Gameboy Printer. It certainly had its share of problems, but it was still fun to make stickers back in the day. And the author didn't even have the game it was designed for in the GB camera.

    Oh yeah the ol' Worm Light. I used that always while playing my GBA in the dark and it worked perfectly.

    Controller as 1st? O RLY??

    I had all of those except for the rumble pak. I wouldn't have bought the Game Boy wireless device, but it came with a Pokemon game. I thought the Eyetoy sucked, and the worm light was better than most of the Game Boy games. Amazing.

    Rumble on Zelda was epic. Glad I grew up with these memorable video game classics.

    I wonder why a controller is the number 1 accesory. Oh right, you need it to play the game.

    The Worm Light is cool. Nifty addition to old school handehlds.

    From a certain point of view, controllers are the logical choice for number 1. After all, what's the one thing that comes with a video game console was you buy it ? The controller.

    im glad a lot of you like the article! lol yea its kind of obvious that controllers made one as its pretty obvious, but as told in the description, you need to look past the standard controllers. look at the controversy with certain controllers with like the ps3 boomerang how they have to be engineered to be comfortable and cosmetically pleasing, how often they are compared trying to find the perfect controller, controllers on PCs (which arent standard at all), special controllers like the guitar hero controller, and much more.

      Isn't the Eyetoy camera better (as in more advanced) than the Xbox 360's vision live?

      I have both and found the Eyetoy to be much better and more responsive to movement.

    I used to love my wormlight. I'd always use it to play after I was supposed to be sleeping and stuff...

    I loved the wormlight and N64 rumble pak. Never used the wireless accessory for the GBA, or an Eyetoy camera. The controller being the number one accessory, was... well, unexpected, I suppose, but pretty obvious. I didn't agree with their worst accessory, though. I liked the printer.

    The GB Color light.

    I have one of those in the same colour too. I used to use it all the time at night, along with the chargeable pack instead of batteries

    I didn't even know what most of them were.

    Controllers? That's stupid, they could of put something else.
