Fun story: when I worked in videogame QA ~20 years ago, there was a specific Nintendo rule about games not doing anything weird when both left and right were pressed on the controller at the same time (this would have been Nintendo DS, I think). This wasnt possible on a normal console, so how was it tested? We had a special unit that someone had cut the Dpad in half down the middle with a Dremel tool.
