Well, I guess it's everybody's dream. 360 control with the best d-pad

What's wrong? Do you still not understand?

Look at the PS3 controller. The D-Pad/Face Buttons are Aligned. This means they are on the same position. Top Left/Top Right.
Now look at the 360 controller. The button layout is the same as the DS3 except the buttons ARE NOT aligned. The D-Pad and Left Analog are switched.(So the Left Analog is on the Top Left of the controller)

Wii U design is obviously inspired by the 360, except the button layout which is aligned like the DualShockk 3, but flipped.

Hahahahahahaha.

"Shocking rip-off Sony! What were they thinking!"

"What? They look nothing alike!"

when Sony is inspired by an other company all the nintendo fans get their panties so wet at Sony but when Nintendo does it it's ok, what a load of bull

but that's not the vita's dpad :P

the x b a y buttons are not a the same place trolololollll, and they place the right joystik in the worst possible place, Nintendo inovate again

It looks pretty cool, and it has the same button arrangement of a concept PS3 controller I did a while ago.

Vita's dpad is a lot similar to nintendo, a unified cross... so that counts as best too

i dont give a shit who they copy atleast they finally have a usable controller. Well, i havent tried it yet, but it looks usable.

lol yes and DS and other controls have dpads too and they similarities. But it's the feel of the dpad that matters. The vita dpad is the best in the market at the moment. I hope sony uses it for the next dual shock and fighters will be dreamy on it
