I like it! So, for example, with a little electronics and a little microprocessor, you could connect a joystick that doesn't spring back to the middle, or a couple of independent dials that will look like the 'x' and 'y' values to the system... or, you could split the circle pad pro area into, say, 4 regions, then have 8 buttons: when one is pressed, the circle pad will appear to be in the top-left quadrant and the new left shoulder button will appear to be pressed, when another, top-left and new right shoulder button, etc.. Or, a single button could do an action that is extended over time: shift the pad left, press right shoulder button, shift the pad up, press new right shoulder button, shift the pad down, etc.. You could even, with a little cleverness and a little memory, have a 'record' feature so that you could record at least half of a playthrough and replay it again later. Neat!
