The GameCube controller gets the recognition it deserves! I still think it's the most comfortable controller ever (after the 360's). Can't say much about the WaveBird though, but I guess it's pretty much the same! =P
About the DualShock "issue," well, it always had weird control stick placements. I still can't get used to it for first-person shooters. It feels awkward for some reason...
Oh, and again about the 360's D-pad issue, you guys seem to have forgotten that developers optimized games that require directional pad controls to work good with the control stick. Bionic Commando Rearmed works perfectly with the control stick, same goes for Street Fighter IV and other XBLA games like Ikaruga and such (it's precise enough to move your ship between two close bullets, and I know what I'm talking about!). People are finding bugs where there aren't any!
Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
