There have been so many styles of controllers throughout the years of gaming consoles.

Whether it was the crazy design of the N64 controller, or the sleek style of the Playstation controller there's always one that meets your grip and stands out the most.

For me the N64 controller for some reason felt the most comfortable in my hands. It's possible because i have big hands and the design just worked for me.

What's your most favorite console controller and why?

I've always liked the Dreamcast controller for some reason, can't put my finger on it, as for why. Probably cause my hands are huge and it's size helped for comfort. The gamecube controller is also a good one, love it's design but I think in some cases, the xbox 360 has one of the best designs out there.

However, I've gained a love for the Nintendo Switch's joycons. Sure, they're a bit tiny but they feel so comfortable and natural to hold.

You must be the only person who's said that they loved that remote. That's fine, I found it a bit too bulky.[DOUBLEPOST=1512064370][/DOUBLEPOST]

I had Sega Genesis and found that controller a bit uncomfortable myself.

PS3, I can't stand the updated PS4 or Xbox One controllers. Though the original Xbox was ok. Haven't been a fan of any other controllers provided by the ancients... more the fact that lights can't be disabled and drain the battery faster than you can even playthrough a single game. Not sure what happened but apparently battery life getting worse is fine for people?
