At least that Knuckles and Chaos game was half-way descent. I think I ran out and bought a PS1 on the day it was released because the 32x sucked so hard; never even considering a Saturn.

Nobody's posted the Track and Field controller for the original NES. DDR, before its time.

The sega CDX was a nice little CD + genesis system, I'd love to try a dreamcast, though.

The PS2 controller is my all around favorite one to use. I can't think of a single flaw with it.

The N64 controller would be my second pick, if were not for how easy the joysticks wore out. I swear to god, three of my controllers are pretty much unusable now because of this. The N64 is sitting in the closet, anyways...

Just out of curiosity, did anyone here actually like the Dreamcast controller, lol. Anyone remember Dreamcast's VMU's? What a good idea, gone very wrong...

The thing I didn't like about the N64 controller is the joystick was very slippery. The left have was also never used.

I liked the DC controller, but I have big hands. The current CG controller feels too small to me.

The VMUs were a good idea that was underused. Sony had a similar memory card/game combo that could be used to play extras from FF7, but the battery life sucked.

Edit: The Sony model was called the PocketStation. I had one but lost it years ago.

Can't believe this hasn't been brought up before. The hours wasted.

I spent weeks playing my 2600 w/ pacman when it first came out. I loved that box more than food at one point in my life. Wish I still had it...
