I completely agree with how stuffty the xbox 360s D-pad is.

Otherwise, the controller feels like it was made to fit perfectly in my hand, and the buttons' positions, colors and shapes make them easily recognizable and usable without much thought, unlike other modern controller designs which put the buttons in a diamond.

If I made a controller nowadays, it would literally be a GCN controller but with ZL and ZR or something instead of the single Z that work better, a select button, and both sticks are the same but clickable. You could probably fir more buttons onto the face because the design frees up some directions, like between B and Y could be a round button like B and under A could be another arch-shaped button, like X and Y. The GCN controller design has a lot of unused potential, sadly.

I used to really like the Dualshock but then I got used to the Wii U controller (which, as bulky as it is, is really comfortable and good too) and when I came back to DS it felt like stuff because the brown townog sticks are too big and slippery, and the back triggers always go off if you set the controller down.

Ive always liked the GameCube controller. Comfortable as stuff
