PC game for decades with a recent (5 years?) Switch purchase. I was never a fan of controllers and still aren't for anything to do with aiming, but the Switch Pro Controller impressed me as a real nice piece of hardware. Battery life is phenomenal too.

Not practical with anything else, but the Gamcube controller was so comfy. Def part of the 8bitdo ultimate gang now.
GameCube ones are nice
But powera can eat shit
PS3 (that’s the Dualshock iirc?), Steam Controller, and the Wii U Pro Controller (I quite like the two analog sticks at the top). In that order probably.
Nice Never tried a ps3 controller but I tried 2 and 4
The PS2 one is pretty much the same, isn't it? I've never used one of those myself though.
Probably
PS5 controller. Bought a broken one to fix and replace my xBox 360 controller I'd been using and it feels so much better. The trackpad is also useful for games with partial controller support like My Summer Car.
I recently upgraded my XBox 360 Wireless controller and got the Flydigi Vader 3 Pro. Hall Effect Sensors trigger guard. Picked it up for und er 50 bucks on Aliexpress. They are available on Amazon US, but not in Europe.
Really happy with it so far.
I really enjoy the Gulikit King Kong Pro 2 (and would assume the 3 is better) because it all runs on firmware. No software to install, it just works as it should. Also works on Linux without fuss.
On its functionality side it has hall effect triggers and joysticks plus nice buttons.
Nice :3
The 8bitdo also had good firmware but an optional app for macros
I've been enjoying the GameSir G7 for a while. It's wired but I kind of prefer that. My first G7 had a faulty left stick in the first two months. I think it was faulty from the beginning but I just didn't notice it. I sent them a video of the issue and they replaced it outright.
It's a bit smaller than my Xbox elite controller and it feels pretty great. I like the clicky dpad and the two back buttons. Stick tension is nice as well.
I'd like to see trigger stops but they haven't done that yet. I'd also like to have clicky face buttons so I'm considering one of their khaleid controllers. Those are minor nitpicks, though. This controller has been terrific.
