Nostromo™ SpeedPad n52

I have been gaming from the days of the Spectrum/Comodore machines to the Playstations and XBox of today. For all these years passing by and I have seen very advanced changes in the way the games behave and also how ergonomic the controllers have become to make it wasy on the gamers. Though I have used different controllers provided by consoles, Iam more accustomed to the Keyboard and now I have trouble trying to get myself comfortable with the Nintendo controls.

Keyboard had always been the bits and part of life for everyone and Belkin has something for us to play around with. Its the Nostromo Seepdpad n52, its a device with important keys swapped from the keyboard required to play any given game. For people who are still comfortable with the keyboard and wants to play a PC game on the Console version, here it is no sweat of trying to understand the console controller from now on.
