I wonder how many people will use u,u,d,d,l,r,l,r as their combo with this?? And how many are going to be stuck when they can't find the a,b,select. or start buttons. :lol:

I guess that will mainly depend on the costs of making this in the USA compared to say China...
Even with the most automated processes, where labor cost is just a small fraction of the production cost, I've seen companies moving their production from countries that currently have high labor cost to those that currently have lower labor cost. Last big example was Nokia moving their highly automated cellphone production from Germany to Romania.

Not sure what was meant by this comment but I took it as "distributed" rather than being "made" in the U.S.

I looked at this thing and the first thing I said was u,u,d,d,l,r,l,r (no I wouldn't actually use that lol). Its the new 12345 of directional passwords. Even my government teacher the other day made a remark about that code.
