Depends what you were playing. It didnt work for FPS games very well. Otherwise for platformers, sports and fighting games it work great. If I have to play any Street Fighter my first controller choice is the Saturn pad...and the second is dreamcast. |
For me, my hatred of the controller stems from purely ergonomic reasons. I have pretty large hands and I couldn't play the console for more than two hours before my wrists started cramping up. The wrist angles on that thing were brutal.
All my friends who had smaller hands thought it was fine while my roommate, who also had larger hands, absolutely loathed the thing. Our knuckles would rub on that virtual thingie/memory card slot in the middle, too (or maybe that's where the rumble pack was, can't rightly remember).
Still, I played the shit out of that thing. I was in love with Ecco the Dolphin, one of the more bizarre games that never got much love from mainstream gamers. Jet Set Radio was great, too.
Damn it, I miss the old Sega. They were the kings of off-the-wall games.
