Title: Let's Get Achievements with the Horipad TURBO Button
Post by: Sho Nuff on March 04, 2009, 12:20:59 AM: OK, so last night I was playing VF5 with my sweet ass new Hori turbo pad, which is fantastic except for crappy triggers, but whatever:

I finally reached MASTER rank with my Sarah, and was like "Hmm I kinda wanna start tanking up my Aoi and get her sexxi outfits but I don't wanna fight through a billion AI scrubs to get there," so I took the Hori, set the "A" button to the fastest turbo setting, and then rubber-banded it down. Within 3 hours I was at 3rd Dan ranking. (Note that tournaments will sometimes occur, breaking the automated button-mashing flow).

Now I am wondering what other games can give forth their bountiful Achievements with the equivalent of a hyperactive 5-year-old mashing the "A" button for hours on end.

Anyway, the All You Can Quaff achievement in Castle Crashers would be made ridiculously easy since it is essentially an achievement for button mashing.

they didn't have it in stock for the longest time, so I'm guessing Hori started making them again or something. I don't know. $60 is a bit expensive, but I still might order it.

Interesting. I don't see how the pinfall could be turbo'd, but...
