The humble video game controller has gone through a lot of changes over the years. Compare the NES pad to the Wii remote, and you could argue that it’s come full circle. But there have been plenty of evolutionary dead ends along the way. Here are five we left behind.
A gorgeous real-world Miraidon from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has been created in Japan by the Toyota Engineering Society.

Funny, I was playing the Halo 2 campaign on hard last night, I forgot how hard that game was.
Triverse writes, "The Sega Master System (SMS) did not get a fair chance in North America due to Nintendo’s illegal policies. That has not stopped fans from supporting the console long after its commercial demise. Grail of the Gods (GotG) is one such new release for the SMS. If you are a fan of classic, some would say archaic, computer action role-playing games (RPG) then you might remember one called Sword of Fargoal, published by Epyx for the Commodore 64 and Vic-20 computers. If not, well, give Grail of the Gods a play and you will have pretty much played Sword of Fargoal."
Looks similar to Dragon Crystal. I used to have that back in the 90s. Tough game, I could never get very far in it.
The N64 controller, while definitely unconventional, was actually quite comfortable to hold once you got past the weird shape. Plus it reintroduced the analog stick to us gamers, something that had been left behind for some time.
Honestly I was completely fine with the Xbox controller. It wasn't big to me because being 6'4" I don't have the hands of a performing circus monkey. Loved the triggers too and to add to the value you could kill a cat with that thing with the length of its cord and size. :D
N64 controller was killer. Absolutely awesome!
Gamecube controller ftw!
I love the style of the the original Xbox controller but it was too big..
i still think the controller s was the perfect one. keep literally all the dimensions the same just move the b/w buttons to the shoulders like they did and it was gold. the 360 controller is a bit too small and the sticks too short, otherwise thats my second fav controller.
