The Gamecube controller, the Wiimote and Nunchuk, and the SNES controller.



God, I loved the SNES...

Gentlemen, I give you the most insane controller ever. http://www.davesclassicarcade.com/consoles/pong.JPG nothing like the classics.
Ah fiddlesticks, ninja'd. But I will agree that nothing beats the classics XD

OT: Of course, there is one that hasn't been mentioned:

Could it HAVE anymore buttons???

EDIT: Forgot to mention my favorite one(sorry folks!) Anyways my favorite has to be the 360 controller seeing its the one I use the most. Although I do love the wavebird.

While I too love my WaveBird, I gotta say that the 360 controller is by far my favorite controller ever.

I love many, my genesis controller, Dual shock 3 is great, but the one that really feels great to me is my dreamcast controller, the analog stick is amazing and I've never seen a d-pad as nice as that one.

I would really like to get a hand on the Steel Batallion-whatchumacallit, just to try it out. But in the mean-time, I'll just have to go with the big ol' original Xbox-controller.

i'll go for the playstation controller any day of the week, but for shooters and rts you can beat mouse/keyboard... and recently i've started using an arcade stick for fighters, and i gotta say im loveing it.
I'm getting the SFIV TE edition Fight stick for christmas, would you say it's a good investment? it's for use on my pc.

I'd definitely say its worth while the investment, at least if you play a lot of fighters and either know how to use a stick, or are willing to take the time to learn to use one. I mean i've only started using a stick so i still play better with the controller, but it is well worth the effort, and just loads more fun as well.

Sega Megadrive:-snip-
The picture holds a thousand memories
-sniff- I know...

For me it would be the SNES controller or the PS2 controller, they both just feel right.

The 360 controller is the best controller I actually use. I have held a Logitech G7 (I think) once, though. That was probably the most comfortable mouse ever built.

This
and this

They both fit perfectly in my hands despite the fact that my hands are tiny.

Dualshock 1, probably because they haven't changed it. I mean, the DS 3 controller is an improvement, but the original carries some fond memories.

EDIT: And it's a good, comfortable design for me!

I'd have to agree with you, though as you've taken my choice I'll erect an Ignorant Person Flame Shield and say the Wii remote.

I also don't take kindly to despotic commands such as that, Mr. Bossy, so instead of a pic of the Wii remote I will show you this:

This gets my vote for worst.


L1, R2, Triangle, are you friggin' kidding me? Shouldn't some of the buttons have a different texture, so I don't actually have to look at the thing?

Any of the Playstation controllers, I just never got why controllers like the xbox and gamecube had the left joystick switched with the d-pad, it always felt awkward compared to the PS controller being equal.

I have issues with every controller ever. Some more than others.

I enjoy the Xbox's thumbsticks, but HATE the D-pad.
I enjoy the PLaystation's D-Pad but HATE the joysticks.

I'm sure you know what the logical conclusion is. HYBRIDIZATION. DO IT NOW.



Also, as a side note: The Wii does not have a controller. That is a cleverly disguised dildo. Just saying.
Your mom has a cleverly disguised dildo. Come on, you gave that to me and said, "enjoy."

I loved the Gamecube controller. probably affects how I think about the console itself. It's just a shame that some people thought the Gamecube was never a success. If anything, they got the controller right- and fixed the clusterfuck from the N64 era. thats my winner for all-time

For current gen... definitely the 360. It feels more comfortable. I do have to give props to Sony for probably making the most solid controller of all time. At first I thought they were just unoriginal to not change it.. but what is there to change?
