If you’re looking forward to this Fall’s release of Red Octane’s DJ Hero, your wait is almost over. Lookee what I found today. The hardware for the game’s much-anticipated turntable controller just hit the FCC website.

In addition to the exterior pics, here are some additional photos of the innards of the controller splayed out for all to see…

You can check out all of the gory details over at the FCC website. And if you’re ready to pre-order DJ Hero, head on over to Amazon now and plunk down your credit card. I can’t wait to scratch that itch this October.
