This piano video game controller defies conventional video game wisdom in the coolest and most head-scratching way possible. There are thousands of different controllers spanning across a multitude of systems but this one takes the cake for being the most inventive.
Tekken is known as a very difficult game to master just as the piano is a different instrument to use. Mc Cool does both in this video as he shows viewers how he uses his piano controller to control the characters in the game. Who said video games didn't take skill?
Video games get a bad reputation for encouraging laziness and warping the minds of children often but this video shows that it is indeed possible to make video games not only a fun experience but a learning experience as well with this piano video game controller.
