The Sega Activator
Recommended Videos
The Sega Activator was Sega’s attempt to get players more immersed in games by controlling the game with their bodies. Think of this controller as the Kinect before the Kinect was ever conceived, but even worse.
While the Kinect was somewhat responsive, the Sega Activator was a giant piece of junk that required players to remap their brains to an oversized plastic circle covered in sensors. By moving your arms or legs over certain parts of the Activator, it would “activate” a different button.
This controller was so mind-boggling to use that Sega had to put out a training video on how to properly use and assemble the controller, showing that not only was it horrible, but was also overly complicated to use.
