Controllers with moveable actuators

1. A controller comprising:

a controller body having:

a front side;

one or more game control inputs that extend outwardly from the front side;

a back side that is opposite to the front side; and

a cavity disposed in the back side of the controller body;

a module member that is physically distinct and separate from the controller body removably coupleable to the controller body, the module member having a member body sized and shaped to be received in the cavity, wherein the module member includes a processor disposed in the member body; and

at least one actuator that protrudes from a side of the member body, the processor of the module member operably coupleable to the at least one actuator.

2. The controller of claim 1 , further comprising:

a pair of actuators, each actuator protruding outwardly from opposing sides of the member body.

3. The controller of claim 1 wherein the module member includes:

a printed circuit board disposed in the member body; and

a switch mechanism disposed in the member body, the switch mechanism configured to be activated by movement of the at least one actuator, movement of the at least one actuator coupling the at least one actuator with the printed circuit board.

4. The controller of claim 3 wherein the switch mechanism is sandwiched between the at least one actuator and the printed circuit board.

5. The controller of claim 1 wherein the controller body includes a male connector and the member body includes a female connector that is sized and shaped to couple the member body to the controller body.

6. The controller of claim 1 , further comprising:

a locking mechanism disposed in the member body, the locking mechanism configured to removably secure the member body to the controller body.

7. The controller of claim 6 wherein the locking mechanism includes at least one biasing mechanism coupled to a tab, the at least one biasing mechanism configured to bias the tab to a locking position such that the tab protrudes outwardly from the member body.

8. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the controller body includes a top side, a bottom side, a right side, and a left side, the cavity which receives the module member having an outer periphery which is spaced apart from the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the controller body.

9. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the module member includes a top side, a bottom side, a right side, and a left side, the at least one actuator protruding from either the left side or the right side.

10. A controller comprising:

a controller body;

a module member that is physically separate and distinct from the controller body, the module member removably coupled to the controller body and including:

a module member body;

a first pair of levers that protrude outwardly from opposing sides of the module member body;

a second pair of levers that protrude outwardly from the opposing sides of the module member body; and

a processor disposed in the module member body and coupleable to the first and second pair of levers.

11. The controller of claim 10 , further comprising:

a plurality of mechanical switch buttons, each one of the mechanical switch buttons disposed in the module member body and arranged to be positioned adjacent to the corresponding first and second pair of levers.

12. The controller of claim 11 wherein each one of the mechanical switch buttons is sandwiched between the processor and the corresponding first and second pair of levers.

13. The controller of claim 10 , further comprising:

a locking mechanism that removably secures the module member body to the controller body.

14. The controller of claim 13 wherein the locking mechanism includes at least one biasing mechanism coupled to a tab, the at least one biasing mechanism configured to bias the tab to a locking position such that the tab protrudes outwardly from the module member body.

15. The controller of claim 10 wherein the controller body includes a cavity that is sized and shaped to removably coupleably receive the module member body.

16. The controller of claim 15 wherein the cavity of the controller body includes a male connector and the module member body includes a female connector, the male connector and the female connector configured to electrically couple the module member body with the controller body.

17. A controller comprising:

a controller body;

one or more actuators removably coupled to the controller body, movement of the one or more actuators controlling an on-screen function, wherein the one or more actuators are slideably directly coupled to the controller body, wherein the one or more actuators are slideably moveable between at least two positions; and

a guide rail sized and shaped to receive the one or more actuators, the one or more actuators slideably moveable between the at least two positions via the guide rail.

18. A controller comprising:

a controller body having:

a front side;

one or more game control inputs that extend outwardly from the front side;

a back side that is opposite to the front side; and

a cavity disposed in the back side of the controller body;

a module member that is physically distinct and separate from the controller body removably coupleable to the controller body, the module member having a member body sized and shaped to be received in the cavity;

at least one actuator that protrudes from a side of the member body; and

a locking mechanism disposed in the member body, the locking mechanism configured to removably secure the member body to the controller body, wherein the locking mechanism includes at least one biasing mechanism coupled to a tab, the at least one biasing mechanism configured to bias the tab to a locking position such that the tab protrudes outwardly from the member body.

19. A controller comprising:

a controller body having:

a front side;

one or more game control inputs that extend outwardly from the front side;

a back side that is opposite to the front side; and

a cavity disposed in the back side of the controller body;

a module member that is physically distinct and separate from the controller body removably coupleable to the controller body, the module member having:

a member body sized and shaped to be received in the cavity;

a printed circuit board disposed in the member body; and

a switch mechanism disposed in the member body, the switch mechanism configured to be activated by movement of the at least one actuator, movement of the at least one actuator coupling the at least one actuator with the printed circuit board; and

at least one actuator that protrudes from a side of the member body.
