Miacomet made this billiards controller for the PC under their Real Feel line around 1999! Time to play some Doom 2016 with it (and some pool too, I guess)

At 1: 17 it says miacomet's tech patents were sold to a company, who then sold them to an unnamed company which intended to introduce these products to market around Christmas 2006.
I wonder if there's some Nintendo Wii connections there. I seriously doubt it, but it's an interesting coincidence. Especially considering how miacomet's other products seem kinda motion control and sport based.
Edit: Also that snowboard peripheral reminds me of those awful tony hawks skateboard peripherals lol

It's an old video sure, but one thing still remains that astounds me. That's ballsy move from manufacturer. That has to be -the- most niche controller ever created. One of a kind that makes me wonder if the whole product is made in some sort of money laundering effort or actually really enthusiastic and pool fanatic creator. Making switch for left or right handed people points to latter one.

We had this thing. Actually fun to use. You do move stick forwards and backwards, but it really misses the aiming. You can somewhat move that with the mouse movent. But if it could read the angle of the stick, that would be great.

This guy is such a noob. You don't take your cue to your computer room. You set your computer and Pool Shark pool cue controller up in your billiard room on your pool table that's how you really get in the game!

This reminds me of the old pool game on Xbox live. On the original Xbox For the first year and a half I was #2 in the world -supposedly- until I quit playing the game. That #1 dude was like way better than me!

You know, if I had seen this thing in the store back in the day, I probably would have bought it because the idea seems so cool. I probably would have been crushed with disappointment after using it, though.

The stick supposed to have a rubber sleeve so it grips the wheel better. it makes the shooting a lot more realistic. I didn-t see him add it, so I-m guessing that-s why he-s having so much trouble.

Those registration cards were to be used for marketing analysis. It's so they know how to market their future products to the right people and amount of money willing to increase sales.

I watch this video a lot me and my dad use to play Virtual Pool on our Gateway 2000 running windows 98! I love the game of pool and I play a ton. Love your videos keep up the good work!

That pool game from the 90s actually looks pretty good for the time. I guess the somewhat limited scope of the game enabled developers to push the graphics much more.
