Actually, that info has been out for some time. It is actually a prototype for the dreamcast controller, along with all the other concept designs shown in the first picture.

Check out this site for video showing pix of the Dreamcast Prototypes:

The PSP load times for the game are wayyyy slower than on the Dreamcast.
I thought I some how broke the unit, as it was unresponsive for what seemed to be almost a minute before the court and players had loaded.

Unlike the Xbox or Playstation, the onboard Dreamcast battery is only charged when the machine is on. If you don't use the machine for a month the battery will slowly lose its charge.

True.. I guess Saturn was dead by SF3... but at least it made it onto the DC. Is interesting how Saturn was able to emulate / port so many good 2D games, but its so hard for other systems to emulate the Saturn itself.... what an amazing machine.
