NewsLet's Rank Nintendo's Controllers, Best To WorststaffTerrence Dorsey12 Feb '13 - 10:38 
I published an innocent little story yesterday about an N64 controller that provoked an unexpected response. You see, I hate the Nintendo 64 controller. All my friends hate it. Everyone I ever gamed on the console with hated it. I figured it was pretty safe to share that dislike. Others, on the internet, disagreed. Some said it was fine, others even said it was their favourite. Wow. A disconnect like that meant only one thing. Time for a Pecking Order, see where everyone's thoughts on the subject really lay.
Thumbs up. Thumbs down. Thumbs on the D-pad... what's your favorite game controller?

But I modified mine by adding B and Turbo-B buttons where my pinkies rest.

Nintendo, Sega, Sony, Microsoft, 1983, 1993, 2003, or 2013 models; it doesn't matter: They all make my hands cramp painfully within 30 minutes of use. They all suck.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
