When I was little, I didn’t really understand that Nintendo’s Wiimote was one of the biggest outliers in all of video game controllers, so whenever I saw a PS 4 controller or whatever, I would immediately think, “Oh, it’s one of the weird ones”
Oof
Haha lol
Me too. It didn't help that all of my friends had Wiis too so I never used an Xbox 360 or PS3 until more recently.
Me too. I always thought that the PlayStation had an odd controller and I didn't even know Xbox existed😌

That button on top of the Classic Controller was for a plastic adapter that connected it to the Wii Remote. That made it so the Wii Remote wasn't just dangling while using the Classic Controller. It's actually pretty great.
If it were ever released, which it was not, at least officially. There is a fan made one that has the Wiimote pointed upwards for some reason, though.
@@lunalesombras1150 I have one. It was part of some random assortment of items that also included some Wii Shop points. It docks the Wiimote directly underneath, facing it forward at the TV.
@@mistersp3753 okay, I guess that makes sense for why it's like that instead of lined against the controller.

@@mr.stuffdoer8483 How does a successor rip off it's predecessor?
The reason the “duke” xbox controller was so big, was because when microsoft first designed the controller, the wanted it to be in a V shape. But then later, they changed their mind, to make it more like the playstation controller. But they already 3D printed a ton of circuit boards, all in the V shape, so they just decided to make it bigger so it would fit.
Beeg

To be fair, Nintendo sets rules.
- NES 2 buttons, start/select, d-pad
- Master System, Turbo GrafX 16 - Basically just that^^
- Genesis - THREE BUTTONS, no select
- SNES - 4 buttons, 2 shoulder buttons, d-pad, start/select
- Playstation - Same as above but with TWO MORE shoulder buttons
- N64 - Analog stick
- Playstation - Now with TWO analog sticks! I don't know what to do with that 2nd stick.
- Gamecube - Right analog stick is for cameras
- Literally everyone - RIGHT ANALOG STICK IS FOR CAMERAS
I remember staying up late watching Simpsons clips on the Wii U controller
Honestly the PS4 controller is the most comfortable controller I used. I think it’s because I’ve played it for so long but still I never struggle to use it, it feels perfectly comfortable, I like it’s set up. I think it’s a 10/10 controller
I would have to agree, the only issue I have is how much I have to replace mine. Back when I had a PS4, I would go through controllers like crazy and I took good care of them. It would always be the same thing that screws up; the analog sticks (though I did also have a trigger mess up once too.) When I had a 360, I played with the controller that came with the console for years with no issues whatsoever. If there was a controller with the comfort of PS4 but the durability (in my experience) of the 360, that would be amazing.
@@shreknskrubgaming7248 Try replacing the sticks. I haven't looked into it, but there have to be some quality replacement parts that will last you for longer than the originals.

Asmr
Thank goodness I'm not the only one!
Button fetish
This is moronic
What emotions were they?
This video predates ps5, but I definitely think its the best controller weve ever got. Scott also glossed over the intro to the trackpad button on the dualshock 4, which was one of my favorite additions to controllers. Having a big ass button to open up menus and maps is amazing!
Hey man, you made me laugh this morning. The windshield gag got me. Thanks, I needed that!
"One day a video game developer went home, looked at his phone and said: yeah I'm drunk.

Is everybody just going to ignore the bite marks on Scott’s PS1 Controller
*WHAT*
DeroPlayz look at the right thigh
@@KingOfFrye AHAHAHAH
It just feels good.
That's what happens when he plays Gex
For me the Wii U pad has one flaw: glossy plastic. Other than that, it's the best controller ever. The short battery life is an easy fix with having it be connected to the charger when you play and the screen is good for mini maps as well as when you just wanna play lying in your bed and don't want to put a TV at the foot-end (played a LOT of AC: Black Flag during school lockdown at home like this while listening to classes and chirping in from time to time, such good times). Also, feels so great to hold unless you are a weakling. Anyone else agree?
Having to connect it to a charger the whole time you play isn’t a good solution and doesn’t alleviate the terrible battery life. Also what’s the point of playing on the gamepad if you need to have the WiiU plugged in, turned on and within 10 feet? It’s really not a good controller. Having a minimap on the touch screen isn’t worth the $150 it added to the WiiU price or the fact that it made the console harder to develop for and made the graphics weaker because it had to waste so much power on the gamepad
@@rouge939not reading allthat
Ps5 Dualsense controller is just something else: It's of such high quality. Its so stylish and cool. Adaptive triggers are clever and responsive. Capture being on press to take a screenshot, two presses to take a video. Microphone is loud but clear, you can mute its output or all audio output. Motion control is precise. Textures are so nice feeling. Weight is perfectly balanced. Vibration is so unbelievable good, so much so that I never want to use any other controller again.

Yeah; apparently, the main reason the Duke was so big was that Mitsumi Electric, who supplied the circuit boards for the controller, didn't want to make a folded circuit board that was too similar to the ones used in the DualShock 2 controllers.
the mystery button is clearly for making the controller talk.

Minor historical note that you might know and have simplified out for video length: Sony had a Dual Analog pad before they released the Dual Shock. The Dual Shock was just their dual analog pad with shock. Also, the sticks went from innies to outies, which was too bad.
Was the Dual Analog only officially released in Japan?

This is why I love Scott The Woz. Some really in-depth looks at something already covered before, or something that people don't know a lot about. You bring humor and interesting views onto a subject that has been done often before.
I like how he doesn't chase after trends, and instead discusses random topics that aren't covered by everyone else at the moment.
In depth except that he completely skipped all computer controllers we Europeans grew up with (Quickshot, Suncom, Speedlink, etc...), too bad.
You do know he ignored the fact about Arcade Controls, right?
He seemed to be focused on console controllers. If he looked at all different controllers of every arcade machine, the video would be too long. He mentioned how arcade controls are all different anyway.
I wasn't talking about arcades but controllers for home computers (C64, Spectrum, Amstrad, Amiga, ST...), we grew up with those machines instead of consoles, the NES in Europe was as rare as the NEO GEO.
And while I agree that not much evolution happened in home computer controllers (after all, they were all cross-compatible), still a little trip on the memory lane wouldn't have hurt.
i love how the mappy soundtrack was in the background at 0:38
For people wondering the weird trigger on the classic controller is there for an adapter that lets you click the wiimote to the back of the controller. Used in splatoon years later for sure not sure what other games utilized it though
Xbox and Playstation: Go into Photoshop and just do the exact same thing 4 times.

Are you talking about the Wii U or the switch
Dick Trickle probably Wii U
and then nintendo made the buttons and joysticks come off on purpose
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the start/select buttons on the Xbox One controller are supposed to be:
The three lines = the depiction of a pause menu, just incredibly simplified
The two boxes = most games when you pressed select brought up an in game menu, where you look at your weapons, skills, etc. I’m pretty sure the the box behind the second box is the game, and the box in front of it is the menu brought up from pressing select
Or maybe they’re just dumb symbols
Well,The Two Box Button is used as a Menu Button in Roblox so it's usable
DanGames .CZcams its menu in fortnite and minecraft so
Three lines are called the hamburger button they have been around since the 1980s but recently got popular to mean "menu" which is close to what it meant when it was created. It has become a pretty standard now a days. The two overlapping boxes is called the "View" button and it appears to be made up by microsoft. Probably got it from windows. So developers use the view button as a sort of information window. This could be an inventory or some kind of map. I don't know exactly how that button is used as I don't even own a console I am a PC gamer.
@@SirNarax learned something new
Xbox described their version of start and select to be menu and view.
In the olden games, you selected the mode with select, and then pressed start to being the game This was a stupid design because you had a D-pad and an A-button, but whatever.
Xbox reasoning why the "start" name made no sense is because in modern times, you use A to start something. The title screen says press A, for example. The start button was therefore used to pause the game, the opposite of starting. So the new button is menu, press it to access the menu, it even makes sense on the title screen. Most games will bring up a menu with this button
Xbox called their select button "back" on Xbox and Xbox 360, which wasn't a good name. That was associated with the B-button. Press B to go back. The select/back button is used in modern games to less commonly used features; online games might bring up the leaderboard, other games might show a map, change view, reset positon and more. Most commonly it's used to view something or affect the view, hence why the name works. It isn't the perfect name, but it works. - Then you got Forza Horizon 3 that puts the pause menu on the View button, ruining it. The pause menu should go on the menu button.
The Wii U gamepad was actually pretty helpful for me back when I used it. Me and console video games don't get along too well (thanks motion sickness) but the smaller screen of the Wii U gamepad made it so much easier to play my favorite games without getting sick after 30 minutes of play.
Congrats on 10M views Scott!!!! You really deserve it!!!!!

This was posted 3 years ago but, it's still an amazing video

@@user-eu6sc5ow1g no it was Scott himself
@@William_Millar no, it was Michael haha 🌈
@@robertschnobert9090 no, It was gex
I like to think that it was scott just trying to eat it
3:49 "Pump the breaks Speed Racer, no one puts religion in MY Dig-Dug!" is probably my favorite quote from any video.
Reminds me of “I don’t want religion in MY game.”

When your pro controller says low battery whelp 15 hours left
jesus dude, use commas
RetroFanBoi
You’re just overusing them. Makes your CZcams comment looks like a movie title.
Jesus, Dude. Use Capitalization And Periods, the movie
@@hystericallover5989 I Don't Care. If One Is Capitalized All Of Them Have To Be.
And @Conner Bearden, Real Funny.
People Who are Replying, Check The Damn Comment
Last time I checked, the only words that need to be capitalized are proper nouns and beginnings of sentences.
You sent 23 minutes on a video about game controllers
That's why we love you Scott
I mean, you could watch an 8 minute video about a youtuber breaking up on the trending page if that sounds more entertaining lol.
@@yogoshun what does that have to do with anything?
Nothing lol, just giving options.
But he did forget a couple of controllers...
Like, the *PlayStation Move*...
@@rotz394 *we do not speak of PSM*

OMG 10M views
Nintendo's mindset when making the N64 controller:"People have Three hands right"
Not true at all there are 2 ways you can play on it and anyways you don't need all the buttons
@@digittoll7591 not true at all you do not need all of the buttons
@@digittoll7591 sorry, what
@@digittoll7591 Games were literally made with the knowledge that the player wasn't supposed to have access to all the buttons at the same time.
@@digittoll7591 But it's literally true, as no game on the console expects to use all the buttons for important actions.
