[QUOTE="Kayrod29"]Didn't Xbox come out before Gamecube?Rob2223
okay. ripping of features is a valid argumant, but ripping off placement of stuff is dumb. ZOMG! TEH XBOX RIPPED OFF THE SNES ABXY BUTTONS!!!! see? thats stupid.FlawlessSeasons
Gamecube came out before xbox but in japan. Also palcement is a big deal. Also im not talking about the buttons im talking about the analog. Which is very important because thats a big key feature people like about the xbox controller thats what makes it feel right. Do you understand what im saying.

Well, I guess you could say they both stole the PS1 dual analog and placed the sticks differently to cover it up. But then you'd have to say the dual analog copied the N64 analog stick. And didn't sega invent the analog stick? (or so I heared...)-voodoo_child-Sega was not the first one to use analog stick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_stick
[QUOTE="Voryn_Dagoth"]No, the Xbox looks more like the dreamcast controller.-voodoo_child-I agree.
Well in shape and size hell yea lol.
No, the Xbox looks more like the dreamcast controller.Voryn_Dagothyea there nearly the same just added analog
I was wondering if anyone noticed that. I eman I hear some people hating on the GC controller but saying MS xbox and 360 controllers are better. The reason i'm hearinf is because it feels best for shooters and the analog placement. I didn't notice till I had a 360 controller in my hand and it felt good but familiar. Thats when I looked at my GC controller and was like "I cant believe they riped that off". I'm just trying to say when people were like "ps3 controller is a rip of the wiimote" none seem to bring up the fact that MS riped from Nintendo to. The thing is that's what makes the 360 controller feel so right its the analog placement. All they had to do was rip from Nintendofinalfantasy94
Naruto dubs sucks. Mostly because they got 20 yr old voices for 70 yr old characters and VAs that just don't fit the character.

Are you saying they completely redesigned their controller based off a competitor and manufactured enough for their console launch in seven weeks? :|To be perfectly honest, Nintendo came up with the basic design of a controller in the first place... With the NES, then they added shoulder buttons on the SNES, then a joystick and rumble on the N64, then wireless on the Gamecube, and now motion sensing on the Wii(along with other features)
I agree.[QUOTE="-voodoo_child-"][QUOTE="Voryn_Dagoth"]No, the Xbox looks more like the dreamcast controller.finalfantasy94

The letters are in the same place on the controller also and same order (A, Y, B and X). The buttons have the same colours but in different order though.OMG the xbox controller ripped off the GC controller for the "A" botton too!!
And the xbox controller also uses plastic material like the GC controller.........teh copy!!
Intellivision was the 1st game pad (NES was the 1st "D" pad), Atari 5200 was 1st for analog + shoulder buttons. PCs had true force feedback sticks back when N64 introduced "rumble". Wireless controllers date back to the Atari 2600---maybe even before. Motion sensing was on the 2600 "Le Stick" controller 25+ years ago.To be perfectly honest, Nintendo came up with the basic design of a controller in the first place...

Where did i mention the buttons? Please think before you post.
[QUOTE="rexoverbey"]If Microsoft copied analog stick then Wii copied motion controllers from Microsoft's sidewinder on PC. Tony_aaaaNO, Atari 2600 was 1st, read 5 or so posts above this one. Le stick was a mercury joystick and was nowhere near true motion sensing. It used mercury switches plus I don't even remember it releasing in the US. On top of that I could of said GC wavebird stole from Atari too since it launched the first wireless controller. Everyone steals from Atari in some way so Nintendo is not revolutionary either that was my point.

Well, Le Stick did respond to tilting.....so it was the 1st (albit VERY liminted) motion sensing controller. Agreed about Nintendo getting WAY too much credit. Funny that no one remembers all the garbage controllers Nintendo tried....Remember the power-glove or U-force controller?

Up their ***? If they put it where the dpad is it would have been a "copy of sony" so i don't get your point. The reason they put the analog where they put it it's because it's better off there. I never use the dpad- not even for fighters... do you use dpad when you go to the arcade?
