Re: Best and Worst controllers?
I'm good at all controllers, so i see no worst controller or a best controller.
I just can't believe anyone could hate this:

Re: Best and Worst controllers?
^That thing is amazing. No sarcasm.
Anyway, going with kind of controllers those are held like.. usual ones (meaning I'm not counting atari styled controls, joysticks, keyboard controls, quitars, drums, microphones, eyetoy, move, kinect, wii motion controls, and such things) I GOTTA SAY, MY OWN OPINION BEING:
WORST:
N64 controller.
Weird as hell... like it was said here, humans don't (generally, lol) have 3 hands. Sure, you're supposed to re-locate your hands depending on the controls of the game, but it's just awkard. Controls styled like PSX controllers (when they got analog sticks) do the job way better, and you don't have to re-locate your hands.
GOOD ONES:
PS1/2/3 controller, Xbox 360 controller.
Both of these controllers are excellent for me, and both have their good and.. not as good sides.
PSX controller has nicer shoulder pads, atleast my fingers feeling more comfortable on them than on 360 controller. 360 controller has alittle better shape on those pads, but if there would be a game requiring me to have my fingers on all the shoulder pads at once, my fingers wouldn't feel fully comfy.. they are slightly higher (when not pressing) than on PSX controller.
360 feels alittle better while holding though. Oh and I don't really have any opinion on the analog stick placement differences.. they both feel good to me.
BEST:
Gamecube controller.
Smexy lil thing <3 It's very comfortable to hold, and shoulder pads are like.. smexed up version of 360, feeling very nice.
D-pad and those analog sticks could be alil better though. :P
As for handheld games, I've never played with PSP.. sooo I'll just say I prefer Gameboy Advance over GBA SP and DS :P

Re: Best and Worst controllers?
Case in point, the PS1 and PS2 controllers were absolutely fine. I played them a lot. It's the PS3 controller that makes me angry. The shoulder buttons are extremely difficult to get a handling on. The controller falls out of my hands, and also, the toggles seem really loose to me. I can barely substitute in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 because of the shoulders.
I have main character tendencies.

The PS3 controller is basically a PS2 one...i don't see why it's so different and hard to control.

Re: Best and Worst controllers?
The triggers allow for a more gradual way to do things. Like in a game where you need to drive, you shouldn't just press a button to go. Maybe you want to drive slowly to avoid traffic. So you could use the triggers to slowly speed up. Besides, they are just like the Xbox ones except they don't point up, and that shouldn't be a big difference.

In my opinion PSX controller are epicly awesome
And the worst for me is Xbox cause the remote is uncomfortable, also the PS Move never works.

Re: Best and Worst controllers?
I really like the design and feel of the Gamecube controller so id have to say that would be first for me
and then worst is probably, like everyone else says, the N64 Controller

Re: Best and Worst controllers?
Original Xbox controller is only uncomfortable because you have wimpy girly tiny puny hands.
Also, I tend to prefer this MadCatz PS2 controller to the standard Dualshock 2 controller because it is shaped more like the natural shape of one's hands...
...that, and believe it or not, it actually still works whereas my Dualshock 2 controller screwed up on its own due to normal everyday usage. It's for the same reason why when last gen was the current gen, whenever you went to Wal-Mart and looked at the PS2 controller used for the store demo, it'd always be tore up with the thumbstick pads removed and both of the sticks would be off to the sides and/or broken and stuff. Dualshock 3s seem to be sturdier.

Gamecube, for one reason: impromptu brass knuckles. You can do it with a 360 controller, but it doesn't feel right.

I have pretty "avarage" sized hands, but I know people who have bigger hands than me, having the same problems as me. It's just not too comfortable to hold or use.. atleast not in my opinion :PEnzo03 wrote:Original Xbox controller is only uncomfortable because you have wimpy girly tiny puny hands.

I disagree when I was about 7 playing the Xbox, the controller fit my perfectly, reaching the Black and White buttons were hard, but it didn't stop me from completing Fable and other games I had.

But really, Wii U looks fantastic, but can it play well? Well, we don't know. So your worst is invalid forever.

^Hemad because there was no Pikmin 3.
Comfy or not, that controller is amazing and usefull, and can also has a lot features and can give us some nice new gameplay. I don't see why it's bad.

OK:
3 button Genesis Controller, PS1/2/3 controller, Original GC controller, Wii Remote/Nunchuck, NES controller, Any Joystick, DSLite, 3DS, (guessing) WiiU, (again guessing) PSVita, The original Xbox controllers (slimmer ones)
Bad:
Snes Controller, N64 Controller, 6 button Genesis controller, Non-Controlstick PS1 controllers, GBA SP, DSPhat, Original Xbox controllers (the fatter ones)
Worst:
Any Wired Xbox 360 controllers (they mess-up alot easier IMO)
