I mostly liked the 64 controller because it sort of forced you to pick a layout for your game and not just have superfluous control complications just for the sake of having binds.

The Xbox 360 controller has the most perfect feel imo, just so weighty and solid. Also like the staggered joysticks though I am getting used to the Dualshock 4. Wish I remembered some of those older systems better, I remember thinking N64 controller was the weirdest thing ever but it worked well.

Put concave caps on or XB1 sticks in a DS4 and it's an incredible controller

Love the Gamecube controller. Everything just works and is in the right spot.

I had every nintendo home system till gamecube then I lost it at the wii.
Anyway Im prolly a rare occurence since wii was a monster hit (but Im pretty sure it was more for the motion aspect of the controllers than using them in more classical ways).
God bless emulators tho

Gross. You hate post-GC Nintendo but in the same breath are praising the lord that you can pirate their games. **** off.

I'm going to return it tomorrow but if they give me grief or make me send it back to Nintendo then I'll rage.

To be fair, you can get stuff like pro controllers that are basically Xbox controllers for a lot of Nintendo hardware

EB games replaced the Switch without asking any questions, pretty happy about it. They didn't even turn the console on to check the dead pixel, just took my word for it.

I can always get a new Switch, I'll never get the end of the streak back.

Yeah I did manage a Game Stop preorder after it was announced, but unlike, say, Amazon, that didn't include day 1 delivery. I think mine is supposed to be here Monday. I've already got my copy of BotW ready to go.

I'm forcing myself to exercise self control and not buy one of these right now. It's available at Fry's Electronics right down the street from me. Ahhhhh.
