It just goes to show the evolution of the game pad has more or less peaked.
There are little quibbling issues over whether X analog stick should be above or below the D-pad/face buttons, or the layout of the trigger buttons, etc. but for the most part these are minor differences that pander more to personal preferences than superior or more evolved design.
Personally, I like it. About the only thing I would change is the convex analog stick heads, simply because I prefer concave heads like on the Xbox 360 pad. The D-pad looks to be Nintendo standard, which is to say it should be perfect. Shape and ergonomics do look a lot like the Xbox 360 pad, which itself was an evolution of the DS2 with better contours and better shoulder triggers.
