Why it matters
A Fender-licensed, rail-swappable controller with free 3D-print data and tapping buttons is a physical-goods bet that rhythm game hardware stays worth owning after the plastic-guitar era, and NK Trading is carrying it into Japan directly.
Key Facts
- NK Trading announced on November 12 that it began official domestic sales of the Drakong InfinaKore Telecaster Edition.
- The controller is priced at 24,970 yen including tax, with release scheduled for mid-December.
- Drakong is a sub-brand of overseas peripheral maker Hyperkin, and the controller is made under an official license from Fender.
- The controller supports PC, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4, PS3, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, iOS, Android and smart TVs.
- Five locations (body, fret buttons, head, whammy bar and strum bar) detach via rails for replacement with 3D-printed parts.
The Fender-licensed controller from Hyperkin sub-brand Drakong works across PC, Switch 2, Switch, PS5, PS4, PS3, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, iOS, Android and smart TVs, with USB-C, 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connections.
The controller carries five rail-mounted attachment points: body, fret buttons, head, whammy bar and strum bar. Drakong plans to publish 3D printing data for free, so owners can swap in printed parts, and the fret button switches come out without tools for repairs or swaps.
Around the center of the neck sit tapping-dedicated buttons that stand in for the strum bar. NK Trading pitches them for fast-solo and high-score charts. Supported software includes Fortnite Festival and Clone Hero, with STAGE TOUR and Sound System listed as expected; the developer's site also names Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, Guitar Hero 5 and numbered Rock Band titles, subject to connection method and title.
