    I knew this guy when I was a kid, who could only play SNES and Sega games with the control upside down. This was before mapping and being able to toggle things how you want them, was a thing.

    He’d hold the controller upside down and always sat sideways to the tv while looking at the tv from the side. He said it was the only way he could play.

    By being this close to the screen, he reduces the latency created by the photons traveling between the screen and his eyes, therefore giving him a significant strategic advantage over his opponents.
