Joycons, all day every day. Man, it’s great to be able to really lounge to the full extreme and have joycons in hand. Feels like controlling the game with you mind, except not your mind… feels like pure instinct.
And honestly Dualsense is in second place for me. Love that haptic feedback. At first, I thought it was clunky otherwise, but as time passes, the design grows fonder and fonder to me where it just “feels right” in a lot of places. It’s like the PlayStation’s controller finally got to level up from a Squirtle all the way to a Blastoise, if you know what I mean.
GameCube is in third place. Never even had a GameCube and every day I probably regret it a little bit.
Let’s be honest about the old controllers. They feel weird to return to at this point. The NES controller feels like the most awkward feather in the world at this point. For all my time playing mine, it just doesn’t seem right when return to it all these years later. The N64 controller is almost more natural feeling now… almost….
IV, VI, and XV are criminally underrated in this list and IX, XI, XIV are criminally overrated. Love FF forever though. Everyone has a different list and it’s amazing for that.
The NES Castlevanias are underrated as they always are, I see. Just once I’d like to see the original beat Castlevania 4… and Simon’s Quest crack the top 10 (and Castlevania 3 in its rightful place at #3, tied with Rondo, of course).
Love this list though. Oh the hours I’ve spent with the Belmont clan over the years!
Of all my time in gaming, my biggest regret perhaps is skipping on the GameCube in middle school. That regret is mostly because I’ve wanted to play Chibi-Robo.
