What if Nintendo came up with the modern controller design for the N64 back in 1996?
>>
So, a Dualshock?
>>
What if nintendo was one of us?
>>
>>12022180
>What if

What if Nintendo's lawyers actually read the contract with Sony and a deal amicable to both sides was finalised?
>>
What if Sega of Japan listened to Sega of America, the 32x was never released and the Saturn was properly supported

Dualshock is better for games where you use the D-pad more than the left stick
Xbox layout is better for games where you use the left stick more than the D-Pad
Wii U Pro layout is better for games where you use the right stick more than the face buttons
>>
What if Nintendo's headquarters were hit by a third nuke during WW2?
>>
>>12022180
>What if Nintendo came up with the modern controller design
They kinda did
>Original PlayStation controller is an SNES controller with a handle
>N64 introduces the analog stick
>Sony responds by placing two sticks at the bottom of their controller, creating the Dualshock
>Sega decided to place the stick where the dpad used to be for the Dreamcast
>Microsoft blends everything together and creates the modern controller
You're basically asking what if 1700s Britain decided to use nuclear energy instead of coal. It just doesn't work like that.
>>
>>12022209
It's actually Sony who'd need to be hit if you want to save the Saturn
>>
>>12022190
Just a stranger on the bus?
>>
>>12022216
Its actually sega that need to be hit to save the saturn
>>
>>12022180
What if the 18+ rule was enforceable?
>>
>>12022318
People born in 2007 are 18 now
>>
>>12022180
It would've saved the Saturn!
>>
>>12022361
You were born in 2013 tho
>>
>>12022480
1991 actually
>>
>>12022491
So you're saying we need to raise the age requirement to 40 to get rid of these childish shitpost threads?
>>
>>12022614
I didn't make this thread
>>
>>12022180
It would still only have a few racing games football and the two popular fps games
>>
Microsoft's design came from Sega Dreamcast. XBOX had a lot of creative input from the Japanese.
>>
I WOULD HAVE SHIT IN MY PAAANTS

>>12022621
You've filled it with shitposts

This, all layouts are good and better for specific titles. SEGA deserves a mention too, those 6 buttons feel great for arcade.

what if atari released the playstation 5 back in 1976?
>>
>>12022180
Would a dedicated analog stick for camera control have even worked for the N64?
Most games already run at an abysmal framerate, and the camera controls available are typically either very slow or limited. I can't imagine the hardware possibly keeping up with a fully freely controllable camera in most games.
>>
>>12022207
No, sticks being farther from your thumb do not make them better to use
>>
>>12024975
The sticks being on the outside is literally the natural resting position of your thumbs
Not only that but Dualshock layout is also less natural when it comes to movement, as you have to move your thumb sideways to push the stick up
>>
>>12023253
No, you did.
>>
>>12025362
