Finds 1635: A SpongeBob Patrick PlayStation 2 Controller? Plus Games!

I really didn’t expected to find anything in my thrift store trips but whenever I go thinking I won’t find anything is when I come up finding some odd find. The PS2 controller is really cool as it’s based on the still popular Spongebob cartoon series but in this case, it’s Patrick! The design of this controller is just awesome! I love it! Everything is just a joy to look at! I also picked up some games but nothing too crazy, the main attention grabber is definitely the controller. I already got people wanting to buy it off of me as apparently it’s a rare controller. Maybe it’ll become my new main controller when I test out PS2 games.

This game took forever to get here! It has literally been over two years since I preordered this and it's a long wait for a collection that I totally forgot I even ordered in the first place.
