The Sega Mission Stick, called the Analog Mission Stick (アナログミッションスティック) in Japan, is an analog stick, with the usual Sega Saturn buttons (which can be flipped to the left or the right of the stick), as well as trigger buttons on the stick. Interestingly enough, there's an expansion connector on the bottom of the stick, as well as support for mounting something else on the opposite side of the stick from the button panel, so there's a possibility that an expansion for the controller was planned. As far as anyone knows, no expansion accessory was ever developed for the Mission Stick. It was also one of the more expensive Saturn control peripherals, and (as far as Japan goes) very few games supported it.
Because of design differences from the regular digital control pad, not all games will recognize the Mission Stick. Furthermore, certain games, such as Solar Eclipse will ignore custom button configurations.
In Japan, the controller has model number HSS-0114 and was released on 29 September 1995 and retailed at ¥7,800.
