X1 controller is my favourite,although a controller that still doesn't come with rechargeable batteries is really bad. And the need to spend more money on a charge kit is annoying.



Why buy a charge kit when you can just buy 4 rechargable AA batteries? 

I thought about rechargeable batteries but I got a good deal on the X1 controller + charge kit. I do like the charge kit though, and I can use it for more than 15hr's with charging it. The Wii U Pro controller has a much better battery life though.

Wii U Gamepad>XBO>DS4

I would have never thought how comfortable the Wii U gamepad would be, even in long sessions. I do enjoy PlayStation more than Xbox, however the XBO controller feels a lot more natural in my hand than the DS4



"I think it will be the HDS"-Me in regards to Nintendo's next handheld.

I've been using my DS4 as a mouse the past week or so after it broke and it's just like a laptop track pad so for that life saving feature I have to go with DS4 xD

I've never used the Wii U controller before but for me the DS4 is the best controller i've ever used even with the shit battery life. I don't really like much about the XB1 controller apart from the way it looks, it's the best looking controller ever imo (followed closely by the SNES controller). The DS4 fits perfectly in my hands it's sexy it even makes the 360 controller feel weird to use and it's the 2nd best controller imo.

Seriously, how could anyone honestly not rate the gamepad as top dog, even as a PC gamer it's obvious



Wow some interesting answers. Some people saying the gamepad is the worst controller ever while others say it is the best. Same for the DS4.



Having used all three, Xbox One's controller is clearly superior in my eyes. DS4 is good, but I prefer asymmetrical analog stick placement. Both the DS4 and Gamepad have pathetic battery life... The Wii U Pro Controller though lasts forever. Go figure.



Current gaming platforms - Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, New 3DS, PC

Xbox one or pro controller. They are quite similar. For most useful it goes to the gamepad.



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

The Gamepad is my favorite. I like how it's used. After that, the Dualshock 4.

Never cared for Xbox controllers.
