Although it would have helped with third-party support, don't assume that games would have looked much better if they had chosen CD-ROM. The N64 had some serious limitations, like a small texture cache and high latency for the RDRAM. Those wouldn't have been solved by adding a CD-ROM drive to the system as it was. I suppose the variety of textures used would have been greater, but the blurriness would have remained.

Yeah, I really missed all that FMV.

Close, but no. As mentioned the single z button was awkward, the c-stick was a gimped analog stick and the octagon surrounding the analogs sucked. The bean buttons were 'take it or leave it.' Despite all that, it was probably the most comfortable controller though, and definitely set the standard for wireless.

All that said, I actually think the 360 controler is the best controller made thus far. Everything about it feels so good.

I think the 360 controller with a dualshock d-pad would be the ultimate controller. IMO, of course.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
I liked the GCN controller save for the Z button. I haven't used a 360 controller much, but it seems pretty comfortable. Took me quite awhile before I got used to the Dual Shock 3, but I like it a lot now. Used to hate it with a passion...

Yikes? Why Yikes? I'm sure many people would agree. I've owned pretty much every gaming system since the Genesis/SNES days and still think the 360 controller is pretty much the best out there. It doesn't have the best d pad, but the triggers, button layout, and form put it light years ahead of everything else out there.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
i will concur the 360 is the best. dpad could use some work but since that's rarely used in games i play, it's only a minor quibble.

What I like about this mod is how it retains the PS buttons. I don't care for how the 360 buttons are rounded on top instead of flat, which I find more confortable to use. I actually filed down the tops of the buttons on my Xbox controller S to get them flat. |

What's so "yikes" about people liking the 360 controller then?

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Alright, maybe we could of avoided this had I just explained myself. I'm just not a fan of it. The weight, the clunkiness... I've never been comfortable with it. But I've never been a XBOX guy, so that surely has something to do with it.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
For what it's worth, when I've played Xbox games with my friends, the controller has always been a major roadblock to my enjoyment of the game. Maybe it's just because I'm used to Nintendo and PlayStation controllers, but I didn't like the way it was set up.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Gamecube controller was my favorite. I don't really care for the xbox design. Project cafe controller is damn comfy.

Yeah, it's getting annoying isn't? Either blow your NDA or don't bother.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Another vote for 360 controller, hands down...best controller to date on any system. It only has two major cons in my book. One is the weight. I do agree, the thing is "clunky" in that regard, but definitely makes up for it in the ergonomic design and analog placement. Two is the aforementioned D-pad, which doesn't really bother me as it is rarely used. Everything else from the concave analogs, to triggers and shoulder buttons are just right. MS really nailed it, especially after the original xbox controller designs.
Fix those two things and maybe re-add a memory/USB/SD card slot in the controller and they would have a perfect controller next gen.

I hated the Genesis controller.
