    Anyone who doesn’t like the NES Max doesn’t understand WHY it was made that way. Yeah, it’s smaller and can be a bit less comfortable but if you doubt that sliding disc thing, play Marble Madness with it. You’ll understand after that.

    the sad thing about the Saturn Analogue and the Dreamcast controller is that they are the ONLY first party controller with a "no drift" analogue stick due to them being based on Hall Effect Sensors. No wear and tear here - everything else I know works with 150 year old tech -> the good old Potentiometer that WILL fail and die when used.

    Had that Dual analog controller!!! Got it the night SF EX plus Alpha came out. We needed a 2nd controller and that's all that the lil indie game place had (GAMETRADER - FL) The dual analog was made 1st cause NINTENDO had a copyright over Vibration effects in controllers. After that was squashed was when they made the new PS that had dual shock. The change the back where it had the Yellow White and Red metal input to the now standard PS cable. They also changed the placement of the lens. They restructured it a but to enable more space to put the chips for the dual shock function The dual analog also had 4 same size R buttons instead of L & R 2 being extended

    For most games the 6 button pad was essentially a 4 or 5 button pad, with one or two of the functions required by the 3 button scheme becoming obsolete in the transition. Several games simply used XYZ as weapon hotkeys. But not Earthworm Jim which gave you bupkis.

    Sansui made a controller for the NES that is almost identical to the Famicom's controller. It also features a slider switch for the A and B button that allow you to set how fast you want auto fire. It also has a headphone jack at the bottom of the controller for some weird mono output that changes ears depending on which direction your pressing. Overall it is my favorite controller for the NES.

    I seriously bought the SEGA joystick JUST for the included Rapid Fire adapter. I would then connect a regular joypad to it. Oddly, I mostly used the rapid fire because I loved playing Monopoly and holding the rapid fire sped up the computer's turns. Also, it was MORE comfortable to play with it in your hands like the Atari joystick and actually move the stick from the bottom instead of the top grip.

We have really come a long way since then, one only complaint about these series is I want to get these consoles again but what sucks about getting older is having the money to buy them but no time to play them lol. Thanks for these series I always love having these videos playing why I'm at work or when I have my kids around.
