There are a lot of video game controllers out there that people like and everybody's got a preference of what they believe is the best controller out there. A lot of people say the Xbox 360 controller and some people say the Xbox One controller. And some more nostalgic fans of older video game consoles say the NES or the Super Nintendo controller. Funny enough nobody ever really says the Sega Genesis controller. But anyways one of the best controllers ever designed is actually the GameCube controller.
Some of the features of the GameCube controller are actually pretty interesting and while the odd positioning of everything may throw you off it’s important to note it's octagonal input method. Now what that means is that there's an actual octagon shape around the plastic where the thumb sticks are and that gives you a precision movement when you're moving the joystick around in this little area. It basically snaps to an area giving you a far more precise control of where the joystick should be aiming. And you'd think that this kind of controller design would be copied by everybody but it really wasn't. However Nintendo did follow it up with the Wii Classic Controller Pro which basically takes that exact same input and replicates it.
The Classic Controller Pro is a really good design for a controller. The handles give you a really good grip on it and then the buttons are all in a really easy to reach place. In fact your thumbs can actually go all the way into the center of the controller making it very easy to hit the select, home and start buttons. But the actual thumb sticks have the octagonal input method that you see on the GameCube controller and this makes the controller really fun and interesting to use. The only problem with it is it doesn't have vibration and if you really want to be nitpicky it also is kind of flimsy. So that's my pick for one of the best controllers that I've ever played and sadly Nintendo probably forgot all about this thing years ago.

I like my GameCube controller too. My PS3 controller I like too, but sometimes get confused with all the buttons :-( and have to pause to look them up.
that command I had never seen
Ahh I love the Octagonal input for the joystick, made It very accurate to play. Great post.
i like game all time . so i hope it very good
Nothing like those classic controls, which had its function, make the game operate with full normality, without so many control systems. That the truth does not leave much for the imagination. I really congratulate you very good content. @ rerez
That's a good question. I love the N64 control lol
One day @rerez you will respond to our community but until then I'll keep trying.
