Why would you need technology from the navy to play bing bing wahoo games? A dualshock is enough

i like how the dualshock 2 is so superior to every other controller in existence even its vietnamese bootlegs are better than most first party controllers.

>>720171621 (OP)
I bought one of those after the submarine imploded out of curiosity and it's actually a pretty decent controller.

>>720171621 (OP)
I'm more of a Wii U Pro kind of guy.

Sweet, I can't wait to play Iron Lung with it!

We're crashing this boat...

that's what those nip bastards used at pearl harbour
patriots use xbox 360 controllers

>>720172431
This is pretty cool. They make a SFC/PAL version?

>>720173009
I think there is one.

nice, could I possibly glue some whacky ass extenders to the thumb sticks?

>>720171621 (OP)
It's funny for me to imagine the reason why the submarine failed is because the controller disconnected.

Anyone have that sharty meme of the submarine?

>>720171621 (OP)
the ultimate 2c already exists, there is no reason for ANYONE to buy one of these

>>720171621 (OP)
Can you play barotrauma with that?

>>720171621 (OP)
I had this one and it lasted longer than any other controller I've ever had. I used it for about 6 years and even when I replaced it, it was still working. Meanwhile Xbox controller I have now lasted just over a year before it started experiencing crazy stick drift. I don't even want to mention Sony trash because it's complete trash, somehow it feels even cheaper than cheap Chinese trash.

>dualshock 2

It really feels like a cheap toy made for children. Even Nintendo is better.
>>720174039
It's like from 2010. I don't understand why they still manufacture it considering that it's simply not worth the money these days.

>>720171621 (OP)
Nice, I'll use it to play In The Hunt

>>720171621 (OP)
oh no my carbon fiber butt plug exploded in my anus and now I can't take a morning shidd anymore!

Fantastic controller. I use it all the time for playing Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Never loses connection.

>>720174403
I had a xbox controller that lasted less than a month before the drifting problem occurred.

Stupid niggers couldn't even use a first party controller

>>720180642
Seriously. The US military uses xbox 360 controllers, but those are known to be reliable. They also have replacements ready.

Everyone who's ever used one of those Logitech Pieces of shit knows it.

>>720172431
Hey wait this kicks ass actually.

>>720181346
SAAR BUY THE CONTROLLER SAAR

>>720181346
lol

Test

I bought blue version of it 10 years ago or so and still use it, it's kino

>>720181649
What was Sony honestly thinking by making this abomination? Why did they try to chase after Nintendo in "console innovation"?

>>720181346
I have one and I ended up kinda hating it, the d-pad feels like shit. 8bitdo Pro 3 feels a lot more like what it was trying to go for.

>>720181649
>>720181861
They were going after the N64. Instead of sticking 1 prong up your ass, you could pick 2.

No seriously I guarantee this was made for female appeal, because it also had vibration.

>>720181861
They chased after Nintendo because Nintendo is pretty damn stylish relative to the other big two players at the time, note that it's Gamecube that won the nostalgia wars even if the PS2 was an objectively better selling console. Sony's still so buck-broken over Nintendo that the PS5's aesthetic is a reuse of the Wii and Wii U's aesthetic.

>>720181783

I wish third parties copying the sony layout would copy the touchpad as well

>>720183434
most snoy games only use it as a select button anyway, and based on my experience using it on steam deck it fucking sucks as an actual touchpad, the mouse movements are super choppy

>>720181649
It looks very polite!

>It really feels like a cheap toy made for children
Yes because children play with PRESSURE SENSITIVE BUTTONS as a toy... Did you just blow in from stupid town pal?

>>720180810
>but those are known to be reliable.
I remember running through 3 of the wired versions because the wire at the top where it connected to the controller would malfunction and short out

>>720183723

There was a period in time when Logitech was on a roll with their PC game pads. The Chillstream is fucking nuts, overall, as it does have a fan built into it and vents out air to keep your hands nice and chill over long play sessions.

>>720183536
>the mouse movements are super choppy
Can't relate to that experience on PC
On top of the mouse movement, you get left click, right click, and up/down/left/right swipes for bindable inputs, so you can do a lot with it

>>720184492
but that's the exact opposite of what you want
you want your hands to stay warm to maximize GAMER (hard R) performance

>>720181886
That cig holder is a great invention

>>720171621 (OP)
If they aren't making these anymore I'll unironically buy a dozen or so to sell 50 years down the line.

I unironically think those logitech controllers are better than the sony/xbox ones, all things consider. they last longer and even if they break they cost 1/5 of a price of dualshock and whatever xbox one is called
i still have the one from OP pic and some shit is loose inside but everything works perfectly

>>720181346
>already discontinued
it's over

>>720184620
Spoken like an AC-enjoyer.

I don't recommend anyone buy a 3rd party controller. they can be a pain to deal with
While I do have an original DS4 I sometimes don't like how mushy it's face buttons are.
been using this bad boy for 2 years now but only wired because I just couldn't get it to connect to my PC with Bluetooth
yesterday I was messing with the sync button combos. tried pressing it and A at the same time. turns out it can pair to Windows as an Xbox one controller

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR

Fuck, I miss Radio Shack... They didn't fuck around with their IBM compatible era PC gamepads.

I bought the new wired Gamesir controller. This is a fucking lie. You can't set the back paddles to mirror a button or anything. You can only record a macro and set the paddle to playback the macro. It sucks and probably something I'm not going to use.

haha controller caused retards in a tiny sub to die. That's so fucking funny man. Come on these things were sold 20 years ago how can it control and entire mini sub. Those rich fucks got everything that came to them. Goddamn IT'S SO FUNNY AHAHAHAHA.

>>720185508
OMG

why isn't this used more? it seems kinda cool to give force feedback on the trigger. honestly the same should apply to the analog sticks.

Let me guess: you need more

>>720185619
Cost. That's probably a 50 cent motor + 50 cents in plastic + extra molds + way less reliable + retards are going to mash it anyways and break the gears.

>>720185472
>You can only record a macro and set the paddle to playback the macro.
Works on my machine, a "macro" can be any button at all and only one button. I have mine set to L1 and R1.

>>720181346
Saar do not redeem the logitech saar

>>720185724
You can't spam the macro like you can a normal button.

>>720185472
I got burned by this with an older Mobapad too
Macro-only back buttons are barely any better than no back buttons at all to me

>>720185619
It isn't used more because it's a shitty gimmick, is why; I remember reading somewhere that most people just turn haptic triggers off on their PS5. It's also a battery hog, the Dualsense has notably worse battery life than its immediate predecessor.
>>720185771
Dunno what's up with yours, when I assign L4/R4 to any other button with the stated combo it works fine as a normal button.

>>720185849
lmao. Time to break out the electric toothbrush and sponges to clean it.

>>720185916
You're right. I must've messed something up with the assignment. I take everything back. This is a great controller.

>>720171621 (OP)
it just werks

>>720186134
>It just wer-ACK
*implodes*

>>720186073
The absolute devil of it was I was sure I was going to call myself a liar after telling you that, because I had the exact behavior YOU described in strange macro behavior instead of a clean button remapping. Then it decided to just werk again after a sixth or seventh remap attempt. There's some trick to it.

I just like the ergonomics. My problems with the DualSense are the planned obsolescence and lack of back buttons, both of which my modded one fixes.

>>720181346
Good to play this.

>>720186201
It seems what it was is there was some dust in the trigger or something that was setting off an additional input; it'll rebind to just the one button if ONLY one button is pressed, but because it thought there was a trigger being pulled it was taking additional inputs along with the button press and thought it was recording a multi button macro. Blew into the trigger and now pressing just one button for "macro recording" assigns it to a button as it should.

>>720171621 (OP)
there are NO GOOD CONTROLLERS

THEY'RE ALL SHIT. FUCK

Pass me the controller, bro.

>>720184812
It'll come back later with a redesign. Most likely has the Tegenaria Lite's rubber d-pad now, apparently some end-of-life (just barely before discontinuation) Tarantula Pros out in the wild also have the rubber d-pad. Xbox version has TMR sticks, orange Charizard flavored one has ALPS sticks.

>>720186363
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!

>>720172431
These fucking sucked. Lots of false diagonals

>>720186347
>just werks for everything
Only downside is you can't use a USB cable to make it wired. Cables are charging only for wireless controllers.

>when you're LARPing on your 80x160 8 bit console

>>720185675
I actually have that somewhere in my unholy mess of a bedroom, it's actually pretty comfortable. I think that brand doesn't exist anymore.

>>720186703
It's actually so good for emulators too. So comfortable. Superior to the GC controller. Adapts great to older console controller schemes.
>xbox 360 controller dpad sucks
I've never understood this complaint desu.

>>720186789
the GC dpad is absolute trash but I would rather use a fucking PS2 dualshock's dpad than an xbox 360's. Genuinely I want a vita quality DPAD in full size. Why can't it be real

>>720186789
I think it was mostly for fighting games, but even so, I never got that complaint either. I played over GGPO with one ages ago and I won't claim to have been some god at the game, but I don't remember having any problems getting moves out or having mistaken inputs.

>>720186901
meant to add the trick was to center your thumb and rock it around the direction you wanted, not actually drag your thumb around.

>>720171621 (OP)

What game was this even supposed to be for?

>>720186901
There's 4 membrane switches, just hit what you want it to do. I don't need some guided dpad like the later version.
>>720186973
so fvcking based. I kneel, mechwarrior.

>>720186714
>I think that brand doesn't exist anymore
it does, but they're ultra shit-tier quality now

>>720186973
I wanted one of these so bad for years and they were like $300.

>>720186739
Kinda ahead of its time for the idea

>>720171621 (OP)
No one comes over any more. And also, my F710's dongle appears to be dying. I have to reinsert it every time for it to be re-detected. Do they sell replacements for it?

>>720181346
Serious question, do a lot of people have a GameSir controller? Every time there's a controller thread there are a lot of anons mentioning something about their own unit. I haven't heard of these guys until very recently when the SAAR meme took off.

What about this? Almost got one but I've read mixed reviews regarding the d-pad.

>>720187302
They just simply have the cheapest controllers in the market right now. Everyone else like Gulikit, Flydigi, and 8bitdo all have controllers $40+ but Gamesir has shit that's like $20.

>>720187450
>one stick
Wtf is this Dreamcast ass outdated garbage

>>720187450
I've heard the dpad sucks but the analog stick is good. I don't have one but I prefer octagonal gates on analog sticks so that part's cool at least.

redpill me on the saturn layout. do you like 6 button pads or is 4 always just as good?

>>720187424
I keep hearing Flydigi is a shit company but their hardware is great.

>>720171621 (OP)
it killed billions

>>720187664
6-button is good in exactly two scenarios, fighting games and 6-button arcade games (so, fighting games a second time, really). Maybe N64 emulators too.

>>720187664
6 buttons are really good for fighting games, generally you can get past with 4 but 6 is ideal since a couple of games were designed with 6 in mind

>>720187664
I prefer two shoulder buttons but smaller controllers aren't great for that.
You just need to get used to having the additional actions on the side.

>>720187741
>>720187771
>>720187796
thanks

i would love a six button, dual stick controller to suit every purpose, but why does every single one of these look fucking cancerous? maybe man wasn't meant to have everything

>>720187879
same reason 16:10 isn't that popular, it was cheaper to include less so it stuck, and people followed what's popular and kept it that way, with only greasers giving the alternative

>>720172431
This controller has boobs.

>>720187879
if you just want to try it relatively cheap, Retro-Bit has $20 saturn style pads, but be warned they don't have pivots on the dpad.

I dont care for back buttons

>>720188731
Yeah there's no real need for them in most games. Anything more and just play on PC.

>>720184873
I remember I got one of these as a hand down, but never got it to work because it used a game port that my desktop didn't have, bummer.

>>720171621 (OP)
Overrated, overpriced trash.
There are literally tons of cheaper, chink made controllers with better quality / features compared to Logishit garbage.

>buy ultimate 2
>dislike its dpad
>buy pro 3
>it has the same dpad
ugh, okay i'll just use my wired xbox 360 for a good dpad.

I still don't get the design thought process for the N64 controller.

>>720185675
>mom, why is my joystick mad at me?

>>720192323
right hand on the A/B/C/R buttons
left hand on either DPad+L or Joystick+Z
You were never meant to use both the Dpad and joystick at the same time, which is why they both have their own shoulder button

>>720187302
I've got cyclone two and it's pretty good. Comes with a charging dock, can switch between xinput/dsinput, gyro, programmable macros and buttons feel good to use. You can also quickly switch between two analog stick modes for games where diagonals make you walk which raw input mode fixes.
