I like the shape of the Dualshock. It fits perfectly in the hand. MAYBE have one with longer grips, like the original Dual Analogue controller for the PS1. The only thing they really need to improve, though, is to make the analogue sticks and L2/R2 buttons concave to help prevent slipping.

Boomerang with a Vita D-pad.

Boom, done.

Yea definitely. DS is outdated its not even that great for fighters and the top buttons just feel wobbly. A Dpad like the 1 in the pic would be great. They should Hire SEGA to design it.

I just want them to change the left and right triggers and make them more like the xbox 360 ones


Maybe we will have this. The R2 button on the Navigator controller and the T button on PS Move are triggers.



Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

No, it's fine a it is. And Sony might come up with something like this



Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

Nope. Don't want them to, either. Very little needs to change.

As long as the PS4 can use the DS3 controller I'll be totally fine with a redesign version ;)

Yeah, that was nonsense, which is why they scrapped it. But no, as has been pointed out, it's not fine as it is. The d-pad is uncomfortable, and the L2/R2 buttons should be more trigger-like, curved inwards. If nothing else, this needs to be addressed.

Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360
