The Atari joystick is, actually.



And the worst controllers ever made...



I dont really like playstation controllers so i picked sega



I think you can fairly put three on that list, and can't really rank them.

First was the atari joystick, then came the original NES controllers, and finally the playstation controllers that basically looked the same ps1-3 till they copied xbox's design this time around (currently my fav controller).

I think the first two are more iconic, but the latter is more likely to be recognized by younger people.

What is it with VGC and its obsession with controllers right now?

IKR?

First, Nintendo has no iconic controller, and now this?



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Lol @ppl saying others are more iconic.... How? When the DS has kept same form factor for three- four gens .... DS4 evolved into something far greater too and still looks like a DS

Saying this is admitting that the SNES controller is the greatest controller of all time.

C'mon man, the Wii U Pro Controller and the GamePad are way worse.



I'm now filled with determination.

Here are some nice gifs on the evolution of Playstation and Xbox controllers. Even an attempt to show similarities in all of Nintendos controllers.
