Fixable by a 1mm wide square of cardboard! (That’s not a joke btw)

Worth noting: the duke was the size it was because the engineers had already decided on a PCB was big (they didn't think to break it into two with a ribbon cable), so the industrial design was just told ”the controller needs to fit this PCB” and she did what she could within those limitations. Given those constraints I think the design work for it is outright impressive.

As much as I loved the dreamcast controller I still can't disagree with how uncomfortable it is. The poor thing was begging for a right stick.

The Switch ProCon is amazing. Although it needs analog triggers. Which is why I bought a series X con for my PC. Still getting used to the backwards A B X Y layout on the xbox. Even a sony controller origibally has Cricle as select and X as back. It's backwards in the west tho. The A and X on the mainstream consoles (Xbox and PS west) are over used. When I played Witcher 3 on my Xbox con, the A button was the EVERYTHING button. On Switch, B is jump/sprint and A is the action/select button Switch perfectlybalances the Select/action button and the usual Jump button Most of my friends old Xbox 360 andPS3 cobtrolles had mushy A and X buttons lol

THE DREAMCAST CONTROLLER IS SO GOOD

I love the N64 controller. IMO it's pretty comfortable to hold when you're holding it correctly, with the middle handle in your left hand for games that require the joystick, and the left handle in your left hand for games that require the d-pad(like Mischief Makers). I can't recall a game that uses both d-pad and joystick simultaneously, so I think developers had the controller layout in mind when developing for it. It's definitely confusing, though, so I see why people would think holding the left handle and reaching over to use the joystick is the way to use it. As much as I like it, it is bizarre. Also when I got my XBox original, I got the second revision controller with it so I never had to deal with the Duke. That thing must feel really uncomfortable.

@SS64DD

the disign defimitly has it's ups. what I like about it is that there is no uncomfortable way to hold it, because on modern controllers the dpad is often hard to use because you have to extend your thumb in a uncomfortable way for an extended period of time if you're useing the dpad for movement. but wile I'm use the n64 controller I have two spterate places for my hand to rest for the anologe stick and dpad respectively.

Even then the Pro controller has an issue with its D-Pad where it lacks what's called a central pivot. Press down on the middle portion of any Nintendo D-Pad and it should rock up, down, left or right. That indicates that the pivot is prominent enough that button presses aren't misread by the controller, but the D-Pad on the Pro Controller has such a bad central pivot that playing games with the D-Pad is an absolute nightmare.

Oh man, I remember my mom buying an Xbox 360 just for the Kinect

If anything; I would say the opposite: Getting video game controller right in all the ways that matter is really HARD. We have only few established designs that are very afraid of change to not break what is not broken in name of fixing what ain't broken. I think often that current controllers and control schemes have been stuck for a while without innovation like adapting motion controls in conventional pads more. They've been in sony consoles for entirety of PS3 and PS4, continue to exist on PS5 yet only PC players have invented really innovative new control schemes to take advantage of this, and only on PC. Then there is also the whole "what controller for what job?" as people who play Smash Brothers, would probably most likely want to play it with a GameCube controller, while anything else they would most likely play with anything but a GameCube controller, and arcade sticks exist for games where their button layout and digital control stick just rule over the modern gamepad. Sega having a weird history because their controllers were mimicking arcade experience for a long while before they had to come up with solutions for home console exclusive designs.

The steam controller is forever destined to be forgotten it seems. I'm waiting for valve to make a SC2 and use the gyro from sony and the double back buttons from microsoft. Then we will truly have the "ultimate controller".

My least favorite controller I've used is probably the Atari 2600 buttplu- ER, I MEAN, joystick. It's iconic, yes, but it's also super stiff and not at all ergonomic. How the hell did anyone hold that thing in the 70's/80's and think it was okay!? If you're playing Atari on original hardware, just use a Genesis controller or some other 3rd party option. I personally use a Hyperkin Ranger, it doubles as a paddle controller and it's pretty good 👍

Unpopular opinion: the Wii U GamePad is the most comfortable controller I have ever used.

I didnt think the dreamcast controller was uncomfortable at all. My main issue was the cord coming out of the bottom or playing a FPS that made me use the face buttons to move and the left analog to turn. Brains used to movement on the left stick so it hurts to play like that.

My favourite controller has to be the Wii U Pro Controller. I just love everything about the layout and the battery never dies.

A big factor for me when it come to controllers isn't just the comfort; it's the features. Gyro sensors, rumble motors, audio jacks, back-paddles, analog triggers, a proper d-pad (PS Vita's is the best), tall stick options, touchpads (steam controller-like), turbo buttons/macros, USB-C cable support, multi-input for connecting to different consoles, and a repairable design. Obviously a controller with all of these things (module style) plus great build quality, a comfortable feel, and a case, would be the most incredible--expensive--controller in the world, in my opinion.

I remember those N64 controllers, when I was a kid I thought you needed to have 3 hands to use it properly. Even looking at it today, the 3 handles still seems like a bizarre design choice. The OG Xbox controller was big and clunky but at least you can grasp (lol) how to use it just by looking at it

That sonic unleashed in the background 🔥🔥

Underrated is the N64 controller. People meme about it but its design is actually quite sound and designed to work for both 3D environments with the analog stick and most precise inputs for more 2D games with the D pad. Only thing bad about it was button mushiness after too much use and the analog stick was poor for shooters.

those kinect games were bangers though

The Business side of the Xbox Kinect is actually one of the few good things about it because it failed it became a really cheap 3D camera witch is actually useful for heaps of stuff for small things

I will not take this attack on the Dreamcast controller lying down

the gamecube controller is perfect and that button layout makes a lot of sense when a game is proberly mapped to it, the idea is your main button for interaction is the largest with the other buttons around that one to give the right distance between them. the only negative thing I can think of is the z button only being on one side and should've had a ZL and ZR

You can thank Retro Fighters for producing redesigns of these flawed retro game controllers. The Brawler64 became my go-to Smash controller after years with the OEM controllers I had since 1999.

The GC control layout is like that since in most nintendo games you press one button for most of the time, and the other three ocacionally.

The biggest problem with the Dreamcast controller wasn't that it didn't have a second stick (back then, the Sony DualShocks were the only controllers with 2 sticks; and they came late in the PS1's life), it was that the analog stick was way too high up on the face of the controller and it didn't have some kind of silicone/rubber cap to cover the head. You'd have to reach your thumb way up on the controller only to have it rest on this hard, slippery, plastic surface whose edge would dig into your skin because they didn't round off the sides of the analog stick head. I got some third party thumb stick covers for my Dreamcast controllers and it has made a world of a difference in regards to comfort after so many years of playing the Dreamcast (claw grip aside). Still love that controller even if it was a precursor to the infamous Xbox Duke controller.

Not sure if you know this but the gamecube style switch controller with the USB you can use on a ps3 and it works well the only button that you can't use is the home on the switch controller but everything else functions.

Valve index controllers are like $500 aud and the drift is really bad and they break easily but the finger tracking is cool

I'm gonna be honest, VF3 and DOA2 are the only other Dreamcast games I've played

I think it will always come down to • Placing the L analog stick horizontally compared to the action buttons vs making a symmetrical controller • Bigger Xbox controller or smaller PS controller (DS5 is way bigger than the DS4 but that's the reason I hate it) I prefer a smaller, symmetrical controller but that's one of those things that you can't really prove ones better since it all comes down to preference

Personally, the best controller would be the Xbox one with GameCube button layout. Besides the size, GC controller is my favorite Nintendo controller. But I'm also someone who hates the switch pro controller so I probably don't get to talk about controllers

1:32 AMOGUS CONTROLER

Ds4 is a good all rounder with a great d-pad but short battery life. Xbox is also a good all rounder but i don't like the triggers. Gamecube is pretty comfortable but the d-pad is tiny and the z button is weird.

In terms of Sega controllers, the Dreamcast controller could have been better, though I think the reason why it's comfortable for me is because I have smaller than average hands. It's why the Sega Genesis 6 button controller is my go-to controller for anything that just needs 1 d-pad and a buncha buttons.

To me the weirder thing about the Dreamcast controller is that the analog Saturn controller, which is essentially an early version of the same concept, actually did a few things better. They could have avoided a few problems by just adding a second stick on the right and keeping their classic d-pad design.

i really liked dreamcast controller as a kid

The Sega Dreamcast Controller was so close to being amazing, but instead of using a rubber stick they stuck with plastic, making someone's thumb ache instead of being good. Another thing that you didn't mention is that almost every Sega controller from the model 2 genesis forward had at least 6 buttons for the face, which combined with Sega unique d-pad, made it one of the best controllers for fighting games. (besides a full on arcade stick ofc) Another final side note is that the wire comes out of the bottom of the controller
