Editing Gravis PC GamePad (section)

==Features==
The gamepad's design is similar to that of the stock [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System#Peripherals|SNES controller]] (more so the Japanese and European version with colored buttons), although it lacks the Start, Select and shoulder buttons, and the shape of the controller's chassis differs slightly, with an inverted curve on the left side. As originally found in some versions of the [[Master System]] controller, the center of the Gravis GamePad's [[d-pad]] allows a small joystick to be inserted. The resulting [[lever]] action provides increased directional sensitivity, which may be preferred in [[fighting games]].

Both at the top and bottom of the gamepad are switches. One of them removes the normal functionality from 2 of the buttons, and turns them into autofire variants of the first 2. This gave all four buttons functionality even in PC games that only supported two buttons on joysticks or for scenarios when two gamepads are connected with a Y-splitter. The other allows for [[left-handed]] operation by turning the workings of the D-pad and buttons upside down.
