Best controller coming through.
>>
>>337400764
the worst aspect of the controller is the one thing that nobody ever uses for anything, i think they might be on to something there.
>>
360 controller is pretty shit for 2D games.
>>
>>337400823
Wii U Pro is pretty great. Although the triggers and bumpers arn't really triggers and bumpers, they're buttons that are shaped like bumpers and trigger. Still great.
>>
>>337400675
ergonomics? you're correct though

Eh, the buttons being below the analog felt pretty irksome to me. Other than that it's just a 360 controller with a not shit d-pad.

Literally the most comfortable and functional controller ever designed. Nothing has even come close since
>>
I can definitely tell you the worst controller ever, and that would be the miserable piece of shit called the Dualshock 3. Fuckers broke way too easily. I had three controllers that got to the point where they would go haywire by themselves like they weren't calibrated. No amount of cleaning/resetting/banging them against the wall helped. I'd hold down the PS button to turn off the controller and it would rapid-fire switch between the available options before an unpressed X button would activate on it's own and shut the whole console down. Fuck that controller.

>>337401832
play something that isnt melee
>>
>>337400823
This but FUCK WHOEVER THOUGHT THE GLOSSY FINISH WAS A GOOD IDEA.

Go matte for fucks sakes.

Otherwise the Sega Saturn pad would be king
>>
>>337400823

Even Better
>>
>>337402027
What is this?
>>
>>337401938
I have over 40 GC games
>>
>>337402096
an abortion of science
>>
>>337401938
It's not even theoretically the best for melee, having a more standard button layout and a second bumper to do aerials with your right hand would be so fucking useful.
>>
>>337401832
comfortable yes, functional no.
>>
>>337401832
It can't play many genres well.
It's comfortable and some games benefit from it, but it's ultimately flawed.

>>337402096

The Procube Controller.
Take everything that makes a procontroller good, and make it look like a gamecube controller.

The Procube even fixes the gamecube's old D-pad.

Seriously, it feels really good.
>>
>>337402632
i saw one of these at target the other day and was wondering about it. is the d-pad as good as the one on the pro controller?
>>
Behold, I have created the greatest possible video gaming controller imaginable.
>>
>>337403356
>that d-pad

Someone put it out of it's misery.
>>
>>337403728
>not liking the segasat d-pad
kill yourself
>>
>>337401091
I would honestly prefer than if I was tapping it, but for holding that would just be uncomfortable
>>
>>337403005

I'd say so. They almost feel the same.
It's a lot better than the gamecube's.
>>
>>337400675
360 controller was the best because of its perfect shape and its triggers. I dont know how playstation gamers put up with pressing flimsy BUMPERS as opposed to actual triggers.
>>
>>337400675
I like the Dualshock 2 controller, personally.
>>337400834
Also pretty nice.
>>337401832
Fucking retarded controller. Only first party nintendo shit is any good with it. Also, it's loud as all fuck.
>>
>>337405790
the ds4 is finally pretty good actually
>>
>>337400895
No one ever fucking uses it because no one puts its use in their games because it’s so fucking shit.
>>
>>337400873

>hurr durr a circle d-pad so gud

Literally retarted. There's a reason why 360 dpad gets a lot of flag, and then you tell me to kill myself? You should really consider looking yourself in the mirror cause not only being a circle dpad, but being that hugefuck makes it so retarded you should probably try to jump from a 10th floor
>>
>>337403356
Does the d-pad rotate?
>>
It's not the best controller for all systems (obviously), but the iBuffalo SNES controller is fucking great for emulated games. Can't recommend it enough.
>>
>>337400675
>non symmetrical sticks
I switched to ds4 after playing on xbox 360 for close to 6 years and it is infinitely better.
>>
>>337406021
yeah i know, i was referring to the ps3

Yeah, bringing the worst of both worlds sure make a one true king, retard.
>>
>>337406652
I made it that large because i wanted to obscure the touchpad entirely to prove a point and didn't spend more than 20 seconds making the image, don't sperg out. Besides, it's obvious that you've never used a segasat d-pad if you're comparing it to an X360 pad. That pad wasn't shit because it was circular, it was shit because it was badly designed, unsatisfying, and inaccurate.
>>337407027
Yeah, I love my Fighting Commander.

My favourite controller but I really can't see it working well with non-Gamecube (or Smash) games
>>
wired 360 controller from last gen
everything else from microshit requires batteries even that fancy 300$ one that falls apart apparently
>>
Dualshock 2 is the best one for me forever.
