highwaystar101 on 09 December 2007

oooh too many. I loved the N64 controller, the wii controller is awesome too.

But the best, the DS by a long way

Neo Geo home stick, in my opinion the zenith of quality and functionality,
after playing with these using a traditional controller, even good ones like the genesis 6 button, saturn, or snes just feel clunky and unresponsive for shumps, fighters, run n' gun, puzzlers, and beat em ups

The Gamecube controller by far for me.

It had a great Joystick that worked very well, interesting shoulder buttons that gave a lot of possibilites, it lay just perfectly in your hands and what was most important for me, the order of the four buttons was better than putting them in a square because you could reach every button easily and you knew wich one was the most important.

I see though that people may complain about the small d-pad or the small 2nd Joystick. I haven't played games that were affected by those, but this may happened to people that prefer other genres than I do.

I'd have to say it's a tie between the Xbox S-type (the smaller one) and the Wavebird. The first has the most comfortable analog stick and button placement I've ever experienced, aside from the awkward white/black buttons. The second is light, has comfortable hand placement, and awesome "springy" triggers.

The Wii Remote/Nunchuk comes in a close second, followed by the 360 wireless (which isn't higher because of the awful D-pad and the fact that it has a bit too much "heft.")



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

As far as conventional controllers go, I have always prefered the Gamecube controller ...

With the exception of the Z-button, every button on the Gamecube controller is easily accessable and you never have to look at your controller to know which button you're pressing; it was the first controller to have the analogue stick in the primary position which prevented "thumb-strain" and this also put the d-pad in a nice position for quick action buttons.
