The VIRGO FEVER’s design fits in line with the rest of VIRGOO’s controllers, but it also manages to pass as an “official” controller to anyone who doesn’t know better. Of course, the controller comes safely packed in its box, with a lone USB cable and two turntable decals to be applied after confirming the controller/turntable works.
Since this is a prototype unit, there are a few scratches – not indicative of the final product. Some of the stretch goals included support for many more games. VIRGOO started a crowdfunding campaign for the controller on Modian, which ended at over 9,000 USD. We previously reviewed the VIRGOO Team’s “Portable DX” controller for beatmania IIDX. The controller was created in order to improve the gameplay experience, by optimizing the way you play. These videos featured a brand-new “FEVER” prototype controller being used to play the game. Just after the game’s release, a third-party manufacturer, VIRGOO, posted a few RESPECT gameplay videos to YouTube. Clearly, there’s a demand for a real controller here! Quite a number of fans have already made their own custom controllers for the game. Unfortunately, there was no mention of this ever being a possibility from the game’s developers.
Of course, this essentially means you can only use one thumb to hit up to 3 buttons – a somewhat inelegant gameplay experience.Īfter the game was announced, many fans of the series started wondering about the possibility of an official RESPECT controller.
No turntable…? I can’t imagine this…Īnd yet, the recently released DJMAX RESPECT only uses a regular PS4 controller for its input. What if DDR was not “a game you play with your FEET!!” and instead just used a standard PlayStation controller for input? What about pop’n music, with its 9, over-sized colorful buttons? And of course, beatmania IIDX. In many cases, one might answer “the special controller” or otherwise non-standard input method. ‘AIR Mode’ will allow you to enjoy a continuous, random playlist, during which you can choose to play or simply listen, as well as leave comments for other players!
