As a kid, one of the few things I ever took apart / tried to repair was my N64 controller. Even I could see that it was a horrible design: the stick is just grinding around in this little pit that it slowly scratches into dust. I remember cleaning it out and greasing it up a bit, which worked to some degree, but the stick still felt more wobbly from all that wear. That was 100x worse than the weird pronged shape, which actually was more comfortable to hold than any other controller I've held at the time. It actually made it all more futuristic and mysterious - like "We're entering the 3rd dimension, OF COURSE the controller has to look super weird". Oh and the sticks on N64 controllers for demo systems in stores were almost unusable like 24h after they were set up.

[@DuckInGameStop]

I wonder if it would be possible to mod an N64 controller and put in a more modern stick that would work better...

[@Foreverfreeusa]

duck in gamestop- Yes. You can even use a GameCube stick. However, it's a step down in performance.

You forgot about the HandsFree. It was a controller made by Nintendo for the NES which allowed people to control games without using their hands, marketed for people with disabilities. Players could press a or b by sucking in or blowing into a tube as well as move the tube around with their lips/tongue as a joystick. Although essentially the controls were pretty awful, it was the first controller to consider the needs of people with physical disabilities, in this case quadriplegia. It’s important to remember this, as while Microsoft is getting a lot of attention for their adaptable controller for Xbox. Nintendo was the first to address accessibility in gaming, albeit an unfortunate solution.

Story time: When I was younger, the only current gen console I had was the wii. So when I got my first Call of Duty game (Black Ops) it was on that system (and my god was it terrible compared to the other versions). Most players were using the wiimote and nunchuck because that was the standard controller combo for the game, meaning that the only way for these people to aim their weapon at anything was via the motion controls. One day, there was a wii classic controller on sale at my local Gamestop. I bought it with what measly money I had. I started using it Black Ops, and suddenly I was WRECKING online. Seriously, I was racking up 40+ kills with less than 3 deaths every. single. match. Being so young, I didn’t put it together that I was only doing so well because I was playing against mostly children who were using the most awkward controls imaginable.

That could also just be your hand getting used to the square rounded edges and the fact that your has is being molded to help with holding it. The main complaint with Sideways Wiimote, more than the ergonomics, is that the 1+2 and B buttons suck ass to use while playing, along with the A being right next to the D-Pad, which is difficult to press while playing games without the chance for it to slip out of the hand or get unaligned. But if you can beat DKCR with a Wiimote sideways, you can play any game sideways!

[@oofnoob6831]

TheFuriousBean To be fair, both have not that many grips. Also, in my opinion, pressing the 1 and 2 buttons feel weird compared to pressing X and Y. It also kinda feels a little disoriented to hold a nunchuck with it. So I think the ranking of the Wiimote should be the same or a little higher.

[@abelsm6270]

Wii mote should be 2 and SNES mote be 1 NES controller 3

[@themysteriousoa4466]

9:43 Nathaniel: The second controller having a mic! For, some reason. JonTron: THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!

[@Hambs23]

I would agree with the Switch Pro and Joy Con placements if they were more resilient. For the 3 I own (Right and Left Joycons, and Pro), only 1 works as intended, the Left Joy Con. Pro has drifting issues from time to time, and Right Joy Con has drift, awful connection to the console when in portable mode and some face buttons only work when pressed at a certain angle, and even then they can still register the press multiple times. My Gamecube controler, despite being 20 yo, is working completely fine, and that's a very used and borderline maltreated controler. The only thing missing is the rubber on the motion stick. But hey, nice video. It's nice to see the history of Nintendo controllers and how they changed over the years. It's probably one of the most experimental companies when it comes to controllers and sometimes they hit, sometimes they miss, but hardly they ride completely on the success of their latest invention. You can still see the "SNES/Super Famicom" build in some newer controllers, but they always try different things to innovate and improve the classic design.

[@bobbert516]

The joy con wrist straps are INCREDIBLY EASY to take off. You just don’t notice the lock switch. Edit: OH MY GOD... TOO MANY LIKES! Oh thank you for all of them!

[@_pestosauce]

ELverdaderoOVALAO Exactly

[@imaloony8]

I find they're either too hard or too easy to take off. The lock switch is very temperamental, which can lead to some issues.

[@IndieLambda]

I hope he doesn't force them out, because if you have brocken locks, using the Switch as a handheld becomes a nightmare. I'd hate for that thing to falls of and break on the flour like some fragile smartphone. I have 10 Joycons, that's maybe a bit much, but like so, I can have joycons where locks aren't being stressed, none of my friends want the same accessories and I already have a left Joycon where the lock got very lose with all this clicking on and clicking off.

I just wanted to pop in and explain the Joy-con straps these function on a lock mechanism so they Don't detach while playing so the easy way to do it is to use your finger/nails to pop the lock upward to deactivate it and then downward to activate it if deactivated then you'll be able to remove them with ease.

The lock is on the same side as the SR and SL Buttons.
