Message: [QUOTE="DinoRexMax, post: 410013, member: 183241"] [B][IMG size="524x490"]https://i.imgflip.com/8ir6ul.jpg[/IMG] Earlier today, [USER=237971]@Archienine[/USER] posted a thread about the ugliest controllers you've ever seen, so by the karmic laws of the universe, I must post a beautiful controllers thread. [/B] [URL unfurl="true"]https://retrogametalk.com/threads/ugliest-controllers-youve-seen.19496/[/URL] These can be almost any commercially available for any console or platform, past, present, or future. This includes 3rd party controllers like MadCats, 8bitdo, or whatever. However, I ask that you stay away from posting custom or modified controllers, as that would kind of ruin the point of this. You know how it is, an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite amount of soddering irons, will eventually make working arcade pad or something like that. Speaking of which, I'll permit arcade pads, since those are practically all custom by default so. Also, while you are expected to justify you're post on a purely aesthetic point, you are not in anyway barred from talking about controllers from exclusively a functional aspect as well. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, and if it looks stupid but it works, it ain't stupid. Ya feel me? So without further ado, I'd like to start this off by glazing a few of my all time favourite controllers: [B]1. CuleedTec Wireless Switch Controller:[/B] [IMG width="588px" size="640x640"]https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/2b39b2ad-0f1e-464d-a6ff-20fd433c4da5.679efe00c352cfacc2b0c6f8b125f119.jpeg?odnHeight=640&odnWidth=640&odnBg=FFFFFF[/IMG] A rechargeable Switch wireless Bluetooth controller with rubber grips on the handles and a turbo function. It features all of your essential buttons and feels a lot like the Dualshock 4 on the PS4 (especially the triggers). The D-Pad has a nice groove in the middle to rest your thumb, and I dig the Switchcon themed Red/Blue accents (though, it is available in a number of different colours, including a nasty toxic green, blech). Overall, A- controller, really cozy. [B]2. HORI Dragon Quest VIII Slime Controllers (PS2):[/B] [IMG width="580px" size="1237x2000"]https://www.vgdb.com.br/gf/fotos/games/media_33376/dragon-quest-slime-controller-33376.jpg[/IMG] [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]H[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(41, 105, 176)][B]A[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)][B]! [/B][/COLOR]I fucking wish this thing was still 40 bucks! I have never had the privledge of holding this abomination in my hands, but like it says on the box: "I'm cute, and a controller too!". It makes a wonderful conversation peace, is adorable, though I couldn't imagine this would play all that superbly well. As you can see, it's another rechargable wireless controllers, and it has all the buttons you expect (including L2, and R2, if you can believe it) and would probably be a treat to play DQVIII with it. B+ controller, is cute, very slime.

Imagine setting this next to your silver PS2 and just seeing the panties dropping from all the hotties in the room. Heh. [IMG width="588px" size="1000x750"]https://img.ricardostatic.ch/images/da0d37f4-415b-4862-aee4-ae78f514dc0d/t_1000x750/sony-playstation-2-slim-ps2-konsole-2-controller-silber[/IMG] I mean...if you can manage to get any hotties over who are in to PS2 games or something. I dunno. You find any though, they're mine, I called dibs...::slime-roll But, speaking of HORI pads... [B]3. HORI Battle Pad for Wii/WiiU: [IMG width="597px" size="921x680"]https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AXY8A123L._AC_SL1000_.jpg[/IMG][/B] I personally have the red Mario one, but these are essentially GC controllers on steroids. All the same button layouts, alongside an additional ZL button to round out the shoulders, an added select and home button to facilitate the Wii/WiiU functions, and a stellar turbo option with frame options. It's really sturdy, but the control stick is a little loose, makes it feels like it's broken sometimes. This one's only technically wireless, since it acts like a Wii accessory and needs to be plugged into a Wiimote (like the Nunchuck). It came out around the release of Smash4, and works on both the Wii and the WiiU. A controller, shits cash.
