What up with everybody wanting tiny controllers? Honestly, everybody bitched about the Xbox controller being too big, and they are still whining about the 360 controller. I'm trying to play games on the DS, but it's hard when my thumb automatically covers all 4 buttons. I continually screw up because I keep accidentally mashing all of them down. Controllers need to get bigger and stay that way.

I like the 360 controller. I hated the big Xbox controller.

The 360 is the new SNES controller.
The only thing it needs is a better fucking D-Pad.

I loved the old Xbox controller. It worked if you actually relaxed your hands, and let them fix to the shape of the the controller, and yes, I thought the ABXY buttons were arranged well. But yeah, Microsoft needs to understand how to build a decent D-Pad.

I love the 360 controller, I agree in the D-Pad statements though.

Actually, I'm not terribly bothered by small controllers. That might be because I play a lot of retro games.
Seriously, my hands are big, but I can still easily hold a tiny controller.

My favorite controller is still the six-button Genesis controller.

If you find most controllers to be too small, here's my advice:
NOTE: Riding elevators may not help.

I can't play my GBA SP anymore without this handlebar-attachment thingy because my thumbs are too long and overlap on the bottom part of it. The same goes for the PS2 Dualshock.
I much like the Xbox 360 controller, though.

I find the DS to be a little tiring on my right thumb. I don't know why, maybe it has to do with the way I hold it.
Still, too many great games to give it up, am I right?

My DS has been sitting on a table for the last 3 months without being opened.

DSes are easier on the hands than DS Lites.
So I still have my bulky DS.
