Looks like the Xbox360 and PS3 controllers had a one-night stand and forgot to use protection. Despite the striking resemblance to the Xbox360 controller, it’s sleek design and and chunky appearance could prove to benefit it’s users.
A price or availability date has yet to be announced, but this could be a crown jewel of all the previous Nintendo controllers to date. I personally, adored the GameCube controller. Everything was well placed, the size was manageable, and I ran a mean Ness on Super Smash Brothers Melee. We could hope to see Nintendo steer away from casual gaming, and perhaps enter a more active genre. Leave a thought or two below on what you think.
