Sony's controllers are fragile, and break very easily. I've went through 3 PS3 controllers, and one PS4 controller because it would fall off of my lap or vibrate off of a table.

Xbone controller bumpers are a sin against mankind and those are more important than the d-pad in any game you'd be using an analog stick controller for.

Wiiu pro deserves the s tier more than switch pro.

The gamecube controller is a disgusting gimped abomination made for manlets.

N64 controller needs to be in the F tier.

i have a switch too, its fucking shit because my hands are huge as fuck.

As someone who played a lot of genesis as a kid, I can confirm the controller sucks. The shape is fine, but the d-pad and the buttons are all so stiff yet loose at the same time. It's really tiring on the hands. The SNES controller, on the other hand, was almost perfect.

>saturn pad not even fucking included

not with those mongoloid stick placements it doesn't

Also gotta mention separated joycons in each hand deserves its own tier of SSS+

Listen, Sony fAnboys are complete fucking cancer. But the DualShock was a great controller. It wasn’t the 360, but it was pretty dam good.

If you are going for innovation (why the else would some9ne be so retarded as to rate n64 so high) then Dreamcast deserves a rank or two boost.

The 360 controller is horribly overrated and the Xbone controller is an improvement in every way
Joycons in handheld mode are great but the controller attachment is hot garbage

>Switch pro tied with attached joycons

This list is a fucking mess.

Not him, but ergonomics alone was a reason most consider it better, not a big fan of the D pad but the slims controller had a decent pad if you ask me

below Xbawx HUEG
This is correct though
The Duke is GOAT, 360 controllers are for faggots

>why do people hate them?

as someone who cares very much about ergonomics and wanted to design stuff like controllers before reality hit:

segmented d-pad is one of worst ideas of all time
too small
buttons worse than xbox (was fine before 360 but when competition steps up you need to step up)
symmetrical layout is bad and generally means you are stretching your left thumb out of natural range of motion

DS4 is just utterly bizarre to me as it's a regression in every way from DS2/3. Looks like a prototype.

It's not that PS controllers are horrible, it's just that xbox controllers are much better. Microsoft spent $100 million on R&D for the xbone controller. Sony obviously didn't spend a lot and the money they spent was focused on figuring out how to annoy the player. What the fuck were they thinking with the light bar?

the buttons get stuck too

>ds1 over ds2
???? ds2 is the S tier controller so either you're blind or im blind
also the OG xbox controller is great and only handlets would disagree

Why are people bitching about the d pad of the 360? Who the fuck would play any game using the 360 d pad.

If you really wanted to use the d pad for gaming you would get something else such as the Sega Saturn controller.

The Xbox duke wasn't nearly that bad.

I got that 8bitdo pro SNES controller for PC and I haven't used anything else since, so fucking good. If they ever make a Pro Saturn controller and manage to keep the ergonomics while adding thumbsticks, it's fucking over. I would never use another controller again.

Attached: 1549764492812.gif (260x146, 653K)

Have fun stretching for white/black buttons while I just use my bumpers. Assuming we are talking about original, and not the controllers that came out later putting b/w on bumpers

Switch Pro without modification is not a good controller. By design, the dpad is fucked. Many dumbasses and shills will try to deny this, but they've likely never tried to play games like Tetris with it, or have a very high tolerance for shit.

Fortunately, you can mod it quite easily, and at that point the controller is good, but it should not be necessary.

Fortunately, it is fixed pretty easily, but should not be an issue in the first place.

>segmented d-pad is one of worst ideas of all time

I completely disagree. Whenever I have to play a fighting game with a pad I always default to my DS2. It's one of the most accurate dpads ever made.

that's because you don't masturbate on top of the controller NOR do you eat nasty shit and drink sugary beverages while holding it, retard

N64 controller is one of the worst ever, SNES controller is probably the most perfect controller. Also shitty wii garbage and nunintendo shit belongs at the bottom of the list

Move the single Joy-con down to levels. That thing is too small even for little kids.

My nigger.

And apparently I am also a dumbass and didn't realize I typed that line out twice.

I like the Duke, my hands were the biggest of my friends at the time so I was always given the duke. What they didn't know is that the Duke was also a powerful weapon and since I was the only one who could wield it only I had the power

The gamecube controller is for manlets, children and asians. The grips are way too short.

I'm blind. Saw the DS3 in B, and thought is was DS2. DS3 is still better than 1 though.

I downloaded a sega genesis / mega drive emulator

ds3 controllers always felt mushy to me. the face buttons, triggers, everything felt like it lacked any feedback when pressed. the analogue sticks being added is obviously an improvement but imo its kinda unfair to judge a controller based on not having features that didnt apply to the games on the system its for.

fuck

dreamcast is second highest tier

not sure how anyone ever disliked that controller. wtf.

user speaks the truth, this controller is god tier. I don't even own an Xbox and I have two of these things.

That isn't design for D pad games. It is design for 3D games with light use of the D pad such as changing weapons or selection menus.

This belongs in A-tier more than the Wii U pro and Switch pro.

Move DS2 up a tier, swap N64 and DS3, move Wii U Pro up a tier.

>segmented d-pad is one of the worst ideas of all time
I guess it could hinder you from doing diagonals, but that's literally the only downside. it's superior in every other way to d-pads that are just all one piece like the 360.

>buttons worse than xbox
wtf is this meme? xbox ABXY were complete trash until the Xbone fixed them. dualshock buttons have always been fine.

bro...ds1 has analog sticks..thats what DS means

>n64 pad in A
lol
>xbone in A

Not with that shitty dpad it ain't, the boner pad is a straight upgrade to it.

I feel like special mention should be made for the split joycons while having the switch in an adjustable tablet holder mounted to your headboard while you game in bed. It is by far the comfiest gaming experience I have ever had.

Actually best controller

>literally the only downside is that it's 50% useless

wow what a minor fucking downside

dualshock buttons on the DS2 were garbage because of pressure sensitivity, they wore out, only controller buttons in history that have ever worn out for me.

>no Saturn Model 2
>no Saturn 3D controller

The grips were too thin and long for my tastes on the DS1. It felt like they were going more for look than comfort.
But honestly, you are right. I mainly prefer DS3 for modern conveniences, like sticks, more buttons, and built in rumble (which also makes it feel nice because of added weight).

yeah but the tier list image has the original ps controller that didnt have the analogue sticks. i accidentally called it ds1 in the other post though

>50% useless

it honestly doesn't even hinder you from doing diagonals, any functional human being should be able to do diagonals no problem on a DS d-pad

Look, I grew up with Playstation, owned each console all the way up to 3, as a kid it didn't matter that much but now as an adult, it's clear as day just how fucking unnatural and unergonomic they feel, despite the nostalgia

Where would the Steam controller go? Serious replies only please.

DS4 is most comfortable controller ever made

Where's a 360 controller? There's an original Xbox, and an Xbone, but where's 360?

That's honestly really weird. I bought a PlayStation for the first time last year when the Switch had very few games releasing and the controller is one of the most comfortable I've ever felt.

The problem with the D-pad is that it's a single fat fucking entity
if they took the time to separate the buttons a little so that pressing up wouldn't result in you pressing all the 4 buttons at the same time, it'd be the best damn controller in existence.
I fucking hate the D-pad of 360 when I tried playing Tekken with it, bought an arcade stick to see if it's any better and the difference is night and day

x1 > x360

that thing was shit honestly

i have small hands and playstation controllers are too small

Bump the WiiU pad down. That thing was unwieldy as fuck, especially for some games. Pikmin 3 was a pain.

are you fucking blind

Stop putting controllers without analog sticks in lists with controllers with analog sticks.

either make two lists or leave non-analog controllers out. There's no point. You can't directly compare things that don't have similar capabilities whatsoever

>separated joycons in each hand deserves its own tier of SSS+
Correct.

Yes the N64 pad did not properly anticipate that no one would make 2D games again for 15 years and thus stuck on the 3rd handle with the D-pad, but I'm one of the world's last sane men who realizes the DualShock is a crap controller. It was an understandable and forgivable jury-rigged stop-gap to Sony getting caught off-guard by the advent of 3D games. "Crap, our controller is a copy of the SNES one but 3D gaming is the thing now! What do we do?" "Hurry and tape some sticks to the bottom till we figure this out." But when they didn't bother to switch designs for the PS2 the controllers shape became a branding issue and now we're stuck with it. It's very obvious how awkwardly out of the way the primary stick on the DualShock is because the controller was designed without having it in mind. You have to awkwardly bend your thumb to use your controllers most important input (the left thumb stick) while the seldom and marginally used D-pad is given prime placement that the ergonomics of the controller are designed to gravitate your hand around despite the fact you're not using it.

The only right answer.

You have the movement of analog plus the control of a mouse and you never have to take your hand off a mouse either. So you never have to bother constantly changing the camera and taking your hands off the buttons.

why do people masturbate over the 360 controller so much? Dualshock had the same basic design and functionality aswell. Really controller design has been pretty standard since the 7th gen.

What makes the 360 better than xbone?

are we ever gonna get a dpad as good as the vita's ever again?

It's because the Dualshock is less ergonomic for some. I still don't get it though, because the d-pad on the 360 controller is so bad compared to the DS3.

Only thing wrong on this one is the solo joycon should be d tier. It's awful. Otherwise, good list.

Gamecube and N64 are legit pieces of shit.

Try it, my dude. It's real good. I rebind a bunch of stuff but once I figured it out it felt a lot more comfortable than a GC controller.

If you’re talking about the Xbone controller, it’s impossible to press all four directions at once as the controller has a center pivot built into the frame.

This is good, but you should move the PS4 controller down a level.
