Nintendo Controller Evolution

the gamecube controller is basically the 360 controller minus triggers....

Lol at nintendo 64 thing

the worst part is that everything that they say is true

except the gamecube stuff

since modern gaming controllers have a lot more buttons than that in a very similar configuration.

and they also over simplified the wiimote since it does have a large number of buttons for being 'two sticks'

lol i liked the nintendo 64 one.

This.

Also fixed.

You know I could start a massive flame war in this thread as well just by mentioning a single word...

ummmm... bullshit. Aside from buttons used for things like Volume control, and the dashboard, it has ONE button, a D-pad, and a trigger.

But I agree with Civ (that feels weird to write.) The problem that I see with Nintendo is that they don't have faith in the power of software.

They keep on trying to take an entirely new approach on hardware... disguising it as innovation. The real issue is that other hardware manufacturers, like Microsoft and Sony, are starting to think this way too. I don't understand the urge to completely alter they way we play games. Why can't we just continue to improve upon our current way of playing games? We still have a long way to go.

Not that I want you to start a flame war but you will anyway...I'm curious...

What word? The bird is the word?


On Topic: I'm a Nintendo fanboy I love all their controllers and consoles. I owned them all at least once. Except for the the Wii. I still want one I don't care what anybody says about it I still want one.

Why?

Because I just do. There are some games on there are in fact good.

I'm not going to give any other reasons nor do I want to discuss my purchasing of the Wii. Why? Because the way I see it, anything I say as to why I want a Wii will not justify me buying it in your eyes or probably any others in this site.

I liked the 64 controller also, it seemed to work well enough for me. The 360 controller is just the best thing ever made. The PS3 is mad of squares and tubes and feels to light and flimsy. Where as the 360 is moulded to your hand and feels strong, not to mention excellent triggers
