Which begs the question - was the SNES controller or Gameboy that uncomfortable to hold? Not perfect - but not the worst from what I remember. Certainly bearable when the game is really good... |
Size doesn't matter? Yeah, sure... ^.^
Well, size does matter and your comparison is flawed because you're only using one side to make that comparison. The GameBoy could be less wide, but it was also much thicker, allowing our hands to hold it easier. And the SNES was not only 1 inch wider, which is a lot in this case, but (looking at pictures) it's also taller and rounder around the edges, again making it easier to hold.
Please excuse my bad English.
