Title: N64 is not for humans!!!
Post by: HOME_RUN_BAT on December 13, 2007, 04:09:51 PM
The controller is made so that there is three bits to hold... so u wouldn't really be able to play properly unless you had three hands which is not human at all.

Yeah, in my opinion the N64 controller was the worst controller Nintendo ever made. The analog sticks always got messed up after you used it for a long time.

I consider the GCN's controller to be the nicest one. Especially the Wavebird. Just fits so well in your hands. <3

no, it's meant so you can play holding the d pad and the stick, or the stick and the buttons,

the N64 gave you options.

It was more innovative than it was weird.

Considering there was more than 1 way to hold the controller, and it is also based on the game you are playing

Good luck using all 3 at once.  :D

The N64 was the best, in my opinion. The controller, I liked.

I liked the controller before, but now I see it as odd.

I don't recall any game which required use of all three sections of the controller at the same time. Maybe I missed something, but, every game I have requires at most (and usually exactly) two of the parts at any given time.

I mean, on any given controller (or, at least, more recent controllers. Could do it with the NES and other stuff like that), there are likely more buttons than one could push and manipulate all at the same time. For instance, it would be pretty hard to use the L button, the A button, the Z button, the Start button, the main analog stick, the C-stick and the D-pad on the GCN controller all at the same time. Certainly not with any sort of accuracy if it required that. Since one is never required to be pushing that many buttons at the same time though, it doesn't really matter.

It seems that Nintendo has created the most innovative controls then any other company. There is the N64, with the three handles, the wiimote with the motion sensor, and the zapper etc. Playstation pretty much keeps their same controllers with each system, and same with the XBox.

I thought the N64 controller was awkward but for the most part, I didn't mind.

It took a little getting used to, but it never really bothered me.

My favorite was the SNES.  It was so much more comfy than the NES, it was like a dream!

Could it be that some people have not played an N64?  Wow, it really is getting old.  Anyhow, I don't think the N64 controller was all that bad.  Sure the control stick wore out after being used a lot but it was very innovative the way you can hold it in different ways to suit the game you are playing.  I remember playing a minigame on the original Mario Party where I had to spin the control stick around really fast and although my fingers got worn out, it was fun.  Such a great controller. :(  I remember those calluses. :(  Good times, good times.
