Xbox One: I own one original, three originals with headphone jacks, one Xbox One S version

+Great all around.
+Best rumble in the business
+Offset analog sticks that I love
+Great battery life

-AA batteries (though I already have about 10 rechargeables laying sold and always ready).
-Early versions didn't have standard headphone jack
-3/5 of my controllers have drifting issues.

PS4: I own two standard controllers. One PS4 Pro version

+Quality speaker in controller
+Great all around controller
+Motion controls (sensor light is great with Camera)
-Terrible battery life
-Options/share button don't stand out meaning lots of missed input attempts. Better than accidentally pressing?
-underutilized touch pad.

WiiU Gamepad: I only own one from 2012 launch
+Every bell and whistle possible
+Touch screen is great and looks good
+Feels good in hand
-Not as good for action games (ie: Ninja Gaiden)
-Now analog triggers
-Hideous battery life
-No micro USB support
-Shitty rumble

WiiU Pro: I own one from launch
+Feels fantastic. Maybe better than the competition
+Full charge lasts forever.
-No analog triggers
-No motion
-does it even have rumble? I can't recall.

All are a step up from last gen. When I go back to my older consoles, they feel clunky. Even the beloved Xbox 360 controller feels chunky. My ratings?
