It makes sense that the analogue stick placement is symmetrical and high, to mirror to the touch screen controller. You don't want people getting used to touch screen controller, swapping controllers with a mate and then having to get used to different stick placement.

For people that don't like it they still have the classic controllers as an option.

This seems like the right answer, such as can be in this case.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

People will get angry at me but this is Xbox DNA written all over it.



Yay!!!

At least Nintendo's motion controllers don't look like sex toys.


no even close, move was in developement since 95 and Sony had joystick in their walkman since 82, nice try


Nope. That doesn't work. You see, neither Move or the Dualshock controllers were in their end form when Nintendo released their earlier counterparts. There's really no comparison: Sony copied Nintendo with PS controller/Dual Shock and Move. Clearly this is legal since Nintendo hasn't sued Sony over it.



The BuShA owns all!

I't has similarities to the Xbox controller but at least we can see that they changed it just enough so that they don't get sued my Microsoft like Datal did. I believe MS has over 5 patents on their controller.

Why are the buttons below the sticks? Looks uncomfortable to me. I much prefer the Dualshock style like the Classic Controller.


Nintendo have a good track record so I wouldn't worry about it. Since when has Nintendo ever released an uncomfortable controller?


Nintendo 64.


N64 was great.


Controller was terrible, didnt say anything about the games o.O.

The controller was wrong, but it wasn't uncomfortable (at least not for me)

N64 controller was great for some games and uncomfortable for some others,
overall it was a good controller imo

what was it uncomfortable for? I found it a nice fit (after the first couple hours of using it for the first time)

using the stick made the L button useless...and thats pretty much it
i pointed out that overall was a good controller
isnt that enough for you?

I don't really like the n64 controller, but the main problem was its durability.

i swear, I had 4 broken analog sticks. And I'm not a controller-buster by any means... in fact i don't know if I had any other broken gamepads ever.
