Patent attributes
A gaming controller includes a handgrip, an elongated portion, a pedal system, and a communications interface. The handgrip has a forward facing surface that defines an aperture. The handgrip defines a pivot point along the aperture. The elongated portion extends from the handgrip, forward of the forward facing surface. The pedal system is disposed within the aperture of the handgrip. The pedal system includes a pedal disposed along the forward facing surface of the handgrip. The pedal has a first end proximate the elongated portion and an opposing second end spaced from the elongated portion. The pedal is coupled to the pivot point of the handgrip such that the pedal is selectively pivotable between a nominal position, a first position, and a second position. The communications interface is configured to facilitate transmitting inputs to the portable gaming device based on a current position of the pedal.
