Forums - Gaming Discussion - What is the best controller/joystick ever made?

Alex_The_Hedgehog on 15 July 2020

I don't have a #1, so I'll put here my top 3 in no particular order:

- SNES

- Dualshock 1/2

- Xbox 360

Honorable mention: Wiimote (Haven't tried it much, but I enjoyed the motion controls)

Also, it's my birthday, so take this while you think:

Wiimote + Nunchuk.

The pointer makes aiming a breeze, motion controls added new tactile joy to gameplay, the analogue stick and buttons feel good, it fits comfortably in the hands, and being split into two separate pieces allows me to sit with my hands further apart which is more comfortable.

And happy date o' birth man, hope ya have a grand one.



Bet with Liquidlaser: I say PS5 and Xbox Series will sell more than 56 million combined by the end of 2023.

I played Wii Sports once, but without the nunchuck.

Xbox 360, Fisher Price Game Cube and Wii U Gamepad.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

360 was my favourite overall. It felt so good when you touched the right places

Xbox One for me. Excellent ergonomics, fits my hands like a glove.

Xbox One controller.

XBox 360 or Switch Pro in terms of versatility. I prefer the Wiimote/Nunchuck and Gamecube for games designed with those in mind, but a lot of games just don't work with those.

Sega Saturn best d pad ever
PS vita heard this d pad is better than all playstation d pads .
Xbox One I enjoy this dpad more than xbox 360 d pad and its more fluid than any nintendo d pad for fighting games
Snes for street fighter hadokens . Talking about fighters not overall best though both xbox 360 and Sega Saturn 3d controller are best overall for other genres
