The guy is so out of his depth it's unreal...

The box, like the controller, is large

What we have here, is a logistical genius.

omg

leave the sticks alone boys

Dear god, that was AWFUL

Did this guy actually have any idea about anything stick related at all. It doesn't support analog control? Well, it's an arcade stick genius.

And thankfully it retains the 'clickiness', "giving it more realism". What it is more realistic to, I have zero idea.

The joystick only controls the diagonal pad,

the what now?

Its a dumb statement, yes, but I think he's getting at the fact that some arcade sticks (e.g. the X-Arcade, much maligned on these boards) allow you to make the digital stick act like the analogue pad, so it can be used in games that don't actually support the stick. Its a handy feature for those running emulators, for instance, but its hardly a concern for the people the stick is aimed at.
