OT: Yep Ninty's controllers have pushed the whole game industry in all areas; console, handheld, and pc. (pc obviously for gamepads not k/m)

Yup, Nintendo has been the first to think of new controller designs for more than 10 years now. As for this gen, I'd give an arm and a leg or a Wii Remote with buttons of different colours.

In terms of controllers, Nintendo has always been the leader in innovation. I love all of their controllers. I sorta want to buy a Virtual Boy just because the controller looked sweet.



Wow that N64 controller looks great, im going to take a photo of my Stealth SNES controller, i cant find any online



Nintendo is the best videogames company ever!

ok, why don't snes vc games work on a wiimote when genesis games do? Its stupid, thats why.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

The NES controller was a huge leap over prior controllers.

Just like wiimote is now?

Also, I had some of these for my N64...they were great.



That looks awful. How would you play Goldeneye with that? I never buy 3rd party controllers. They're just not as good as Nintendo's IMO.



i don't know, i actually liked the n64 controller



I regret making this my username, I made this name when I was 13 years old
