Make games easier - Satoru Iwata

I have to disagree Greatstlouis about the gamecube pad, to me it seems like the most logical of the three big consoles.

But is it really the amount of buttons on a game pad? Or is it how the game uses them.? Mario Sunshine uses all the buttons and both analog sticks perfectly, everything makes sense, and it becomes instinctual as to which button to press. By Contrast Enter the Matrix has controls that are all screwed up.

As for games being too hard, don't US companies usually up the difficulty when they import Japanese games? I know Sega used to do this alot. I think it has something to do with people in Japan enjoying the story of the game, while US gamers enjoy the challange.

Yep, the Saturn pad (Not the first US and PAL ones) was the BEST controller ever. I haven't got a clue why people say the PSX pad is best with it's "Blister" D-Pad. Guess it's because it's the most popular which means it MUST be the best :smt019

Totally disagree.

The first generation US Saturn controller was THE best for Street Fighter.

My roommate and our neighbors played SF Zero 2 hardcore for over a year, and it was the agreement that the winner kept the first gen controller. ;)

The D-Pad on it was infinitely superior to the JPN version, imho.

the one I have is the first US revision. I dunno, but I really like it - the feel is nice and solid, I like the clickyness of the shoulder buttons, and the rocker D-pad is oh so nice...

Agreed.

Personally I HATE the GC controller. It's something about the odd shapped buttons that just irks me. I like my controllers with buttons the same size and simple lay out, especially for fighting games.
