Systems of prominent manufacturers that failed because of their gimmicky controllers and led to an exit from the market

I got to hold a jaguar controller and it's rather comfortable... Just wish it had shoulder buttons.

Outside of the wire being on the bottom I was always fond of the Dreamcast controller as well. For those mentioning the gamepad on the Wii u... Yeah, I like that too.

Really the only controller that I didn't care for in the past that comes to mind were the playstation 1, 2, and 3 controllers, but those consoles didn't fail so I don't suppose they qualify. The PS4 controller is great, though the touchpad is a little silly :D
