Nissan Converts SUV into PS4 Controller

Nissan 1 PS4 Controller SUV

Nissan, Konami and Sony have partnered up to turn a Qashqai crossover SUV into a PS4 controller. The vehicle will be used to play Pro Evolution Soccer 2016. “Players pass the ball with the brake pedal and shoot on goal with the gas pedal, controlling the direction of players with the steering wheel. The windshield washer lever handles cross passes, the phone button makes players sprint, and the turn signal is used to navigate up and down.” Using nontraditional controllers to play video games has become somewhat of a trend now and video games can now be played with your feet, bongos, a guitar hero controller, keyboard and mouse, etc.
