/vr/ - Retro Games

Of course. Most ps1 games don't support analog sticks anyway and the original controller is super comfy.

>>6261489
it feels too light

>>6261485
In the 90s, yes.

SFC controller is the OG!

>>6261485
Stop pressing this meme. Your stockpile of shit controllers will not go up in value.

Yeah, d-pad on some of them is way better than the dualshock's

>>6261485
Yes. Back around 1997 or so. I also recently picked up a 1010 because we obviously never had that here.

>>6261485
I never had a controller with the sticks, so yes.

>>6261496
he's right though

ultimate retro hipster faggot detected

>>6261485
Yes, back in the 90's. I got dualshocks some time later and still didn't use the sticks as all the games were made for the original controller anyway and controlled badly otherwise (Quake 2 for example)

>>6261942
They didn't exist when I got a PSX and I never learned of the existence of any other controller. I moved to PC soon after getting a Playstation, it is what it is. Not everyone here is 19 years old, faggot.

>>6261485
Did I? Sure, it was the only one for years.
Do I? It'd be nice if I could find a console that didn't chew up its own laser, but fuck me!

Though you can get decent Chinese USB knockoffs for literally one dollar and I quite like those for NES games since they're equally lightweight, less physically painful, and you can do a dramatic guitar smash whenever you pull off something cool then just get a fresh one out of the drawer.

>>6261485
On occasion.

Yes, I do play using an original japanese PS controller instead of the western bigger one that was released later.

>>6262485
>i have little trump fingers

>>6262589
>I like long, big prongs and stuff them up my arse

Shame the Sony d-pad is shite.

>>6262589
Of all the things you could be, you choose to be a weak liberal faggot.

>>6262607
The dpad is great. You must be used to eating shit.

>>6262724
This on both accounts. PS1 DPad haters can eat doodoo and drop dead.

It's been so long that I don't even remember if my PS1 came with the original controller or analog sticks. I want to say it was analogue because I seem to recall my palms being sore trying to learn 360 degree flight in Colony Wars: Vengeance.

>>6261981
This photo is both comfy and depressing at the same time.

>>6262607
Is this a retro gore thread?

>>6261485
Of course, doesn't everyone?

>>6262724
Some are good, some are bad. There have been a bunch of revisions

>>6262626
Top kek kid. I've been voting Republican since before you were born. And triggering faggots like you long before that.

>>6261485
No, I don't have midget hands

>>6263041
And how long have you been redditspacing?

>>6262607
Without the top rocker in place that must play like shit. You'd think someone that stupid would at least fill in the gap, but then someone with enough sense to do that wouldn't have done it to begin with.

>>6263041
ok boomer

>>6261485
Nah, negcon all day, err' day

>>6261485
Yes. It was just like playing SNES with handles.

are the replica ones from the mini any good? it's the only part of that console I was interested in

>>6261485
i bought a console set with a dualshock controller back in the day.

modern day, i used keyboard most of the time, tried playing with a china clone controller and was meh.

>>6262724
Recessed dpad is dog shit mate

>>6263053
>i failed so i'll fail harder

>>6263164
ok zoomer

>>6261485
That's not the original controller. This is. The scph-1010 that was bundled with the original Japanese SCPH-1000 systems. It has shorter legs than the scph-1080 revision everyone calls the "first" PlayStation controller, and a very short cord.

It's astounding how many professionally written articles about the PlayStation overlook this.

>>6263370
Many also forget or don't know the Dual Analog exists.

Yes, of course. What else would I have used before the Dual Analog, and then DualShock? Still a great controller for 2D games.

No but I got one of these in today. Need to try it with one of the games it actually supports, I don't care for digital mode too much.

>>6261491
Agreed, my playstation came with dualshocks so when I first used the OG controller it was far too light

>>6263370
Yeah, but who gives a fuck? It was the original controller in every single region that speaks English. Stupid hipster cunt jerking off over your le obscure knowledge.

>>6263575
No one forgets this because of ape escape

>>6263798
Just realised you posted the dual analog and not the shock, disregard

>>6263738
>but who gives a fuck?
People who care about the truth.

>>6263358
who are you quoting?

>>6263738
>It was the original controller in every single region that speaks English.
who gives a fuck?
I got a japanese modchipped PS back in 1996, and it came with the original controller. it's not some obscure knowledge thing, it's just you being a zoomer.

>>6263370
L@@K, RARE!

>>6261485
No, I play with a keyboard because my PS2 died.

>>6264351
cope

>>6261491
what's the problem with it being light? Are you trying to argue that a heavier controller is more comfortable?

>>6262607
jfc

>>6264745
Americans associate weight with perceived quality. Give someone two products that are otherwise identical, yet one has a few pieces of zinc to bulk it up. Ask them which one they think is higher quality, and guaranteed they're going to pick the one with the weights.

>>6264778
got it, so they are dumb

>>6261981
>>6262826
Yeah, very comfy, enjoy your neck pain faggot.

>>6261485
I use it for my Super Nintendo games, as well as playing my Playstation Mini with it.

>>6263575
Nobody forgets this because it was blatantly rushed out after Nintendo revealed the N64's pad design in a desperate catch up attempt.

>>6266519
I think they did a pretty good job, considering nintendo directly copied and released it over a decade later.

Yeah, I use it pretty often because my dualshock has a slight drift in the sticks, this seems somewhat normal as all the sticks on dualshocks feel very sensitive. Haven't verified personally. It took me until about 2004 to make a full transition to even using the analog sticks as many games still supported the d-pad and I felt more comfortable with it for movement in Playstation/2 games.

>>6266530
They're just reclaiming their design that Sony originally ripped off from them.

Every console manufacturer takes from the competition and puts their own spin on it, even daddy nintendo. No need for the historical revisionism.

>>6266718
>No need for the historical revisionism.
Where? We're reminding you that the playstation controller copied the snes controller first. Unless you're denying that.

yeah one came with my ps classic. weird that the original playstation had usb. i always wondered why it was on my ps2 but what's the point of switching to that connector the ps2 uses then

>>6261485
yes, it was awful

>>6261485
Yes, but not much.
By the time i had a ps1 the dual analog had become the standard and packed in.
So im always somewhat confused when someone or sony acts like the standard is the nostalgia piece of the ps1 era.
When i think of ps1 pads, i think of the dual shock, and im pretty sure most people do.

>>6264745
Not him, but I like a pad with a bit of heft.
What the other anon said about weight and perceived quality is true, even so I prefer a pad that doesn't feel like a featherweight.

>>6266126
Not everyone is a sedentary officecuck who gets chronic pain from looking down at a TV.

>>6267015
You think because you have a standing desk it's cool to torture your spine when you're relaxing? No, bro, proper posture is key.

>>6261485
Well, not exactly, but I have pic related for games that don't have analog support, the ASCII dpad is way more comfortable.

>>6261485
Lol yes I played through parasite Eve with one I that I have that was a blockbuster rental. it's dark grey with sparkles and it's got a big metal weight on the cord

My favorite one to be honest, just can't use it if joystick required yuh know so yeah.
Got it from a buddy years ago.

>>6262607
Astounding.

>>6264778
im sorry you and your underdeveloped european muscles have issues with increased mass.
