I suspect just about everyone has made the joke comparing male genitals to a joystick at some point. Some people take it further than others.
Take the guys at SF Media Labs, for example. They have devised a way to transform a tadger into an input device suited for more than insemination. Using a sensor ring, the controller can determine whether you're tilting John Thomas up, down, left or right. And when you include the optional "firing" attachment, every stroke of the purple-headed warrior equates to a push of the fire button.
In its current form, it isn't good for games with more thrust than Atari 2600 titles, although I suspect playing Custer's Revenge with one's manhood would do a lot for immersion. If you're interested in trying this out on yourself (or a friend), full instructions are available at SF Media Labs' website.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
However, the idea is innovative, but pushing the limits I guess.......
actually I did think about it more today, when I told my friends while working on the car....
It would be better if your girlfriend was doing all the work trying to play the game..... :P

I don't think I could stand playing that game for longer than 45mins, looks boring.
