what does /vr/ consider nintendont's best and worst controller?

Of the OEM retro controller I'd say the dogbone is worst. Not counting the official rebranded third party controllers like the NES advantage. Can't decide on a best one

Another vote for the octogate stick and huge A button of the GameCube controller.

Worst ? PowerGlove and it’s not close.

best = snes
worst = gamecube

>>11804748
>PowerGlove
not a Nintendo accessory, made by Mattel
worst controller by far is the boycott
worst retro controller is the original NES pad
best controller is the SNES

NES and SNES are good
The rest I don't give a shit about. N64 and gamecube in particular look like cheap pieces of shit and reflect Japans recession

>>11804736 (OP)
Worst is the N64 controller.

>>11804746
Dogbone is pretty bad too.

>>11804793
NES pad has more satisfying button membranes than SNES which are very mushy.

>>11804906
only autists with sensory issues give a fuck about the barely-noticeable difference between how springy the buttons are on NES vs SNES.

>>11804910
>finally a controller I don't have to feel
here you go bro

The PSX controller and all the ones that followed it are literally enhanced SNES controllers

>>11804930
SNES controllers and all the ones that followed it are literally enhanced Game&Watch controllers.

>>11804939
The Dpad one the later the Game&watches was a ripoff of a tiger handheld

>>11804947
So the GameCube controller is literally an enhanced Tiger handheld.

N64 was the worst only because it was way bigger than it needed to be, requiring you to change hand positions depending on if you were using the d-pad or the joystick. I like the third party options like the hori pad that make everything more accessible with minimal hand movement.

Give the GameCube a second Z button and it's their best controller ever. Until then, best one will always be the SNES/Sufami.

Worst one is a tie between the Wiimote-Nunchuk combo and the N64. Wiimote for battery life and ass-stupid way of connecting third-party controllers, and N64 for being an unwieldy POS.

>Switch 2 gamecube controller
>Does not let you remap it
Why did they do this? Also it has a second z button now but its so small and shitty.

>>11804736 (OP)
If we are /vr/ only, here is my official tier list.

SNES
>It just works
>Gamecube
Could be the best but the dpad sucks and a lot of games cannot be remapped (Wii VC)
>N64
Not for the form factor but for the analog stick going bad. If the c buttons would be a bit larger, it would be a decent 6 facebutton controller.
>NES
Why the worst? Only 2 buttons, maybe enough for simple games but even double dragon you need to press 2 buttons to jump. Also, the form factor is not ergonomic. Luckily, you can either mod or use an adapter and you can use the SNES controller in a NES.

N64 had the best exclusives out of them all.

>>11805189
the painful truth that no snoygoy will ever admit, sadly

Best = Snes
worst = everything else except for the Wii Classic

>>11804736 (OP)
Worst was N64 by a mile. Best are Gamecube and SNES.

>>11804736 (OP)
It's pointless to have this thread on /vr/, but I guess the worst would be the N64, I don't mind the form of it but the analog stick's reliability is a problem. The best is the SNES

I played my N64 every day from a few months after launch until I got my PS2 in 2001 and never had problems with the analog stick.
treat your shit better, dumbasses

Best and worst is kind of context specific for me. I love the NES and SNES controllers for the simplicity, but it really depends on the game being a good fit.

If you get an N64/GC/Wii, or hopefully not a SNES game that doesn't utilize all of the buttons and instead A/B and X/Y do the same thing, the I'm a little annoyed the devs couldn't find something else to do with the controls.

But overall I think every controller "works" for the system it was designed for. N64 is the only really weird one but it still feels right.

>>11804793
if The Wizard or whatever that movie was shilled it, then it was a Nintendo controller

>>11805515
You clearly didn't unlock the Naboo Starfighter and The Battle of Hoth getting all the Gold Metals on Rogue Squadron.

>>11804964
>N64 was the worst only because it was way bigger than it needed to be
what is with you people

>>11806157
N64 had an all around interesting in theory but retarded in reality layout and felt like a childrens toy. Impossible to take seriously.

>>11804918
Fuck that thing, touchpad sensitivity was not a thing in the 90s. What a piece of shit.

To contribute: Best: SNES, simply because of the control pad. If you have a SNES controller I bet you it still works just fine.

Worst: Everything on the Game Boy advance original wide version.
Tiny control pad, tiny buttons. Shoulder buttons barely existed. Were fucking leprechauns supposed to use it?

There are these strange small humanoid creatures called children....

>>11804736 (OP)
>best
N64. I said what I said.
>worst
Gamecube

>>11804736 (OP)
N64 is the worst and there's no competition
GC might be the best or at least tied with SNES

>>11804970
What's wrong with Wiimote's battery life? Usually I only need to replece them once in a month.

Adults playing video games were still extremely niche back then.

PSX, PS2, XBOX

>>11804736 (OP)
Best: Phat DS
Worst: joycon 1 in grip

>>11804736 (OP)
I'll almost always prefer playing games on their intended hardware, and the SNES and N64 controller both especially improve the experience of playing their associated games.
You just can't replicate the feeling of the N64 stick and buttons.

I hate how every generation could have an amazing controller if we could mix and match but the individual controllers are all flawed in some way.
(I haven't tried the Pro 2 controller yet, but if it's like the Pro 1 I'd use that shell/shape and face buttons, the "Xbox Core Controller" D-pad, and the Dualsense analog sticks (though they should be hall effect), and the fancy Dualsense mechanical triggers)

>>11806105
nope. it was made by Mattel.

N64 was the worst.
Analog stock hurt you and wore out after time.
Dpad and left shoulder was useless because of the tri stick design
Needed to swap vibration and memory card modules if you had them.
Nintendo didn't know what to do with it so they made concessions creating a shitty controller where you don't have access to buttons depending how you're holding it.

>>11808187
You don’t need to have access to all the buttons at one to play. You’d know this if you ever actually used the controller.

>>11808196
Name any hand held controller that had its buttons out of reach with you thumbs during gameplay

this has to be up there as their worst controller
