Man, if I had to list a LEAST favorite controller, it'd be the N64's hands down >_>

N64 was way better than the original Xbox controller. The smaller Xbox controller, not so much.

360 >= PS2 > Everything Else though.

Hm, I've actually used a 360 controller, but only to play one of the Halo games, and it was three years ago so I don't remember if I actually liked it.

I also don't remember liking the N64 controller all that much, but it represents some sentimental value, so that's why I picked it. I'm like a 40 year-old man reminiscing over the good ole days of the video arcade.

I found the GameCube controller to be the absolute most comfortable (ergonomically designed) controller there is, but not the best in practice.
I still think Sony nailed it with the Dual Shock controllers (which is why it would have been horrid if they kept the boomerang for the PS3).

SNES for me, absolutely wonderful memories of it and Super Mario World working together in harmony.

Aside from a GameGear, I've never played a Sega console. I've also never played a GameCube, or used a Wii, or the original Xbox controller.

So from my experiences, I'd rate the controllers as
360 > Playstation series > Xbox S > SNES > NES > N64

"PlayStation series" as one entry is a bit of an issue. I'm fine with the controller for the PS1 because games didn't even use the analogue sticks very much then (didn't the original PS1 controller not even have analogue sticks?). Once the PS2 rolled around, the placement of the left analogue stick became a serious, serious issue.

That said, I like the 360's controller (aside from that dpad), the N64 controller (aside from that analogue stick), and the Wii controller (aside from the fact that most developers are complete shit at mapping it in a logical way, even excluding motion controls).

Indeed. The original PS1 controller didn't have the sticks. It was when they introduced "Dual Shock" the analog sticks were added.

I don't mind the stick placement, but after using the XboxS and 360, it is. But it's still not quite that bad.

The ONLY thing I HATE about the XboxS controller is the placement of the Start/Back and White/Black buttons >_>
...And just to point out. If you don't have a problem with the White and Black buttons, then you have never played San Andreas on the Xbox.

I HATE the N64 controller because of the way it's designed. Holding that controller always wound up hurting my hands and shoulders.

I don't like analog at all. PS1 joysticks were pretty good before that and they still are, but i guess that's Sony's issue. SNES all the way. :)

You're not trying to hold all three parts of the controller at the same time, are you? <_<

I mean, the N64 controller is hideous and a stupid idea, but I never found it uncomfortable. *shrug*

Oh God yes.

Though it does predate the concept of aesthetics in console design.

I've always had broad shoulders, and large hands. Holding it was uncomfortable for me.
