And it happened again!
This was already real though...
Kind of love this tbh
That actually looks cute.
Both of those make way more sense then they have any right to.
I mean, a timeline where Sony actually kept working together with Nintendo on the SNES add-on is kinda plausible.
But then we would have never gotten the classic that is Hotel Mario.
Probably a timeline that kills Sega before they can make a Dreamcast.
In this universe, the Rez vibrator is built into every controller.
I wanna see this but with Sega ABC/XYZ buttons instead :D
It's not like there's no potential for a coalition of people in the fediverse to make their own console with one of the single board computers that are on the market, we'd just need games, basically.
And yet people would still hold it incorrectly.
Idk if Sony would actively make the worlds worst controller even in an alternate timeline
A lot of people really liked that N64 controller, though I feel it would have been an unnecessary design if that Z button wasn't included.
Resident N64 pad defender here. It's fine to dislike the controller, but I'm never really sure if the "I don't have three hands!" complaint is a joke or just based on people who never played any N64 games or what.
You're not supposed to use all three prongs, ever. It's just a hedge-betting controller. Nintendo was afraid people wouldn't like the new, 3D style of game control and would demand a return to traditional D-pad input.
The N64 controller was their solution: if 3D movement is just a fad that dies out, well, move your hand over a couple of inches and forget about the analog stick. Now you've basically got a SNES pad with six face buttons and better ergonomics.
Obviously, 3D took over that whole generation and there's probably less than 10 games that need D-pad movement, so it ended up being fairly pointless in hindsight. But I can't argue with anybody who starts their design process with "What if gamers hate this new style of input?" because when don't they.
Hell no lol. It always made my hand cramp and lock up and it came out when I was 11 or so. And the thumb stick giving kids blisters because it's just a plastic stick with no soft rubber on top. Like wtf is that choice?
I would say the DualShock is worse; never liked the placement of the thumb sticks at the bottom but apparently that's just me.
daaaaang. i like the dualshock 2 and 4. the 3 was garbagio
