Post concept controllers or peripherals that are different and interesting. I want all designs you got! Even that autist who draws pictures of dream controllers. Anything you can find.

Do you all prefer symmetrical or asymmetrical analog sticks? Which positions do you believe are optimal? I believe the most obvious answer is that it varies depending on what I'm playing, for example I'd rather use a DualShock 4 to play a 2D platformer, but the XBOX controller to play 3D action adventure. Still, sometimes you want a jack of all trades so you don't need to switch controllers all of the time. and for that which position do you all consider to be ideal?

Notice how the Nintendo angle of the dpad to the analogue is steeper compared to how close together the other pads lower directionals are. Perhaps that is aiding in it being an easier lower position dpad to use?

I've made failed designs where a small stick was inside the diamond button formation, it lowered down in between. Six can be done, often the decision to place the buttons aside the stick or above it can change the feel.

>All these cross-shaped dpads
Can someone explain the appeal to me? It just seems like an unnecessary handicap, particularly when you can have the best of both worlds by having the cross-part more prominent whilst still having diagonal access, like the Saturn Dpad does.

I'm not criticizing, I'm genuinely curious if there's something I don't see because I thought it was just something Nintendo did for brand consistency, not something people really prefer. If it's a nostalgia/identity thing then I don't get that either because I've tended to gravitate towards Sony ever since the PS1 but that's never caused me to have any love for their segmented dpad.

Just put mouse wheels around the tip of the sticks and a button in the middle of them and you can move while turning the camera with the wheel. And even though these are hall effect sensor based. The button would negate the need for clicky sticks.

They have them now as well. I think most are a wasted opportunity. People mod controllers to have mouse/keyboard controls ether integrated into controllers or attached. Keyboards have so many options and are often very universally accepted in the machine. They really should be making keyboard input controllers that are more usable with ergonomic inputs. It could still have a keyboard auxiliary attachment.

Ideal controller:
>L1 & R1 (click in like GC's)
>L2 & R2 (triggers)
>Lstick & Rstick (octagon around like GC; both click, equal sized)
>L dpad & R dpad (with diagonals like saturn)
>2 face buttons beside each Dpad (either like N64 A & B or GC X & Y)
>start, select
>gyro
>back buttons similar to >>9083242

Never got the appeal. Those top buttons look like they'd be very stiff every time I see this webm. The whole controller looks so to me. Part of the appeal of this I always thought was that it was a great retro controller that doesn't have the sticks. They look like they were just slapped on here for the sake of putting them on without thought to the overall design.

If that had an analog stick on the left, and ever actually got released, I would have bought one in an instant.
Some prototypes of the Steam controller were exactly that, but I found the final version with a haptic trackpad pretty underwhelming. Thankfully, I made a nice profit reselling mine recently, as I bought it during the $5 fire sale.

Alternatively, the Gemini style button where the whole stick goes down instead of clicky sticks may work. But I would add an analogue turning system. It would turn a quarter circle when you lean the stick forward and to the left/right while pushing it down. Then would spring back to centre.

I can deal with it being shittier, so long as it doesn't cramp up my thumb like the regular controllers.
I have no idea why NEC thought putting it so close to the bottom left edge was a good idea.

I see this is mostly a thread for posting controller images but I don't want to create another one just to ask, so I'll do it here

Any good non-expensive controllers for playing /vr? Everything i'm looking through has shit D-pads and breaks in like a week (judging from reviews).
I'm not sure what to get, had a chink gamepad for years and it served me well but ended up looking atrocious because of soft touch melting in my sweaty palms.

there was an interview recently with the guy who designed this. It was decided that there wouldn't be a big enough user base for these since it would be an optional expansion for an optional controller, so they dropped it from their plans.

Same guy was also asked about the DC pad having 4 buttons. He said all the devs asked for that because it simplified things. Only fighting game fans needed the 6 button setup, and they all bought arcade sticks (remember this was in 1997-98 and in japan only.), so it didn't matter if the controller only had 4 buttons.
