>analog stick doesn't simulate a d-pad when the analog switch is off
Are they stupid?
Why didn't they implement such an obvious feature?
>>
>>12688365
Why would you want such feature in the first place?
>>
>>12688365
Why do you need one when the d-pad is right fucking there?
>>
>>12688365
Just use the dpad you dingus
>>
That feature never made sense.

I swap between using the dpad and analog stick for movement in games to give my thumb a rest. hours of dpadding can get uncomfortable.

>>12688415
bro do you even lift?

That's just because the PlayStation d-pad fucking sucks. I can game endlessly with a SNES d-pad, not sure how Sony fucked theirs up so bad. Crash Bandicoot 1 is literally painful to play.
>>
>>12688427
I got my thumb busted on SNES controllers a few times.
Never had this problem with a PlayStation controller.
To be far I also mashed the d-pad way less often during the PlayStation era.
>>
People would have accidentally played in digital mode because the stick still does something.

I found that the opposite - Playstation controller d-pads sucked when they were new, becoming better as the rubber beneath softened
SNES only needed to depress the center and get rid of the ball above the rubber contacts

Probably this honestly. People are retarded. People used to play DS games on their 3DS and say the circlepad magically added analog control to their games.
>>
>>12689276
To this day people still say this shit about SM64DS, which is made more confusing because there actually is a mod that implements analog control by remapping the touch screen shit.
>>
>>12688630
>Get rid of the pivot ball

This is a tranny smith contrarian trap isn't it? It's like mutilating a Genesis v2 controller pad.
>>
>>12688365
If I turn analog off it's because I've rejected the concept entirely. I don't need it accidentally activating D-pad presses every time I shift the controller under my blanky. If it's off, the right for it to have any sort of voice or presence in the experience has already been revoked.
>>
>>12689276
To me this exposes the fact that SM64DS is actually perfectly fine with the D-pad controls and those people are just whiny bitches.

Or maybe it's because pre-analog games become completely unresponsible when the analog mode is turned on. Have you considered this?
People didn't turn it off because they were afraid of accidently touching the analog stick, they turned it off because it was the only way to play the game.

Aren't you afraid to use your oven?
