The original PS1 controller was extremely similar to a SNES controller. It wasn't until Ninty revealed the N64 controller that they started thinking about adding sticks to it. As for the 360 being better to program for for third parties? No, that's simply not true. A Wii game costs about half as much to make as a 360 game. |
What I was saying was that the N64 was meant to be the leading console and yet it introduced the analogue stick. They innovatd as the leader rather than as the follower.
The Xbox 360 games also sell at least twice as much on average so it does balance out.
Tease.
