A game controller system for electronic games includes a two-hand operated game pad that has a pair of pistol-like grips extending from opposed ends of a central housing bearing player input buttons, triggers analog sticks, and digital pad. A wrist support panel extends laterally from the bottom of each grip to provide a rest for the blade portion of the gripping hand.
