Which controller do you like most?

[tb1024]

It's a simple question.

I prefer joysticks...well... I play with joysticks since I was 3 with my PlayStation 2. Especially Sony's DualShock and its clones.

[Wohlstand]

I had the gamepad, but i had to swap it to RJ46 Modular Crimp Tool at my univesity mate. Oh, Now when I developing game as I regret that swapped it. Surely it is useful for game debugging with a joystick control.

[Kevsoft]

Don't worry, I have a Logitech gamepad with XInput + DirectInput support ;)

Depends on the game, really.

Usually, though, the majority of the time, I play better on the keyboard because of its (ever so slightly :p) quicker response time. Although I do have an old Logitech Dual Action and a couple other gamepads lying around, ready for use if I want to test out something in multiplayer.

I play very well with my Wiimote, but... I prefer keybord & mouse setting.

The keyboard is fine if I'm stuck with it but I really do like Joysticks most notably the N64 controller. I got 1 for pc and it works great I literally use it for everything and it cost less than $20.

Well, this is not a n64 controller for PC, it is a N64 controller clone for PC.
Just like my controller is a clone of Sony DualShock.
The reasons why I prefer it: I've always used it since I was 3; very comfortable to use.
However, my PC's USB ports are trashed and it's a bit hard to get it working. However, the price...
It cost me BR$20,00, what is about US$8.

Personally I use my original-SNES-came-with-the-system-controller. For PC games. I have a SNES to USB port.

[Veudekato]

i like only keyboard and mouse. Joystick is too hard for me

[Squishy Rex]

My favourites are the WiiU Classic Controller or the Gamepad, though computer-wise it has to be the good ol' keyboard.

[lighthouse64]

Mine is probably the keyboard. I don't really have any other controllers (except for my dsi)

[Greendan]

I play mostly with the keyboard, but I prefer the wiimote

I choose keyboard!

I'd rather hold a controller in my hands than press keys consecutivley on a keyboard.

Keyboard

[MACKACHE]

i don't need controllers

keyboards is the only thing i need

[ListenFryderykChopin]

This is a difficult question because it depends on what game I am playing. I have been using the PS4 controller for a long time, because it is very comfortable for me and fits perfectly in my hands. I like to play platform games on it, for example, but only with the D-Pad, because the analogs are too inconvenient and too precise for me. When I also play FIFA, I prefer the controller. It's just more convenient and virtual footballers are better in control. I just can't imagine playing FIFA on the keyboard. An Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller is also good. They are very similar and it is a pleasure to play them. But I think keyboards are perfect for shooting games. Fortnite is the perfect example of this. On the controller, although playable, the viewfinder floats more, and despite the fact that there are advanced settings, they are too truncated. I hate membrane keyboards, but I love mechanical ones. As for the Wii Remotes, I think they're great. I really like the opportunities they offer. I just don't like their shape. When I play without the silicone casing, the angular pilot cuts my hand too much (horizontally), but in the silicone casing my hands pinch because my hands are rubbing too much against the non-slip protection. As for Kinect, I like him. Sports games are fun to play on it, just like PS Move.
If I had to choose what I like to play SMBX the most, I think keyboard, although I played the controller for a long time. I haven't tested the Wii Remote, but I'm going to check it out.

P. S. Remember that this is only my opinion and I do not offend anyone. If I did this, I apologize in advance. I believe you all have the right to play what you like.

After a long time, I obtained a large pile of various gamepads: XBox Series, Sony DualSense, super-cheap wired gamepad based on Dragonage chip, two Switch Pro controllers, etc. And now, I just play the stuff on keyboard or gamepad just by mood.

P.S. I tweaked the poll, so it's possible to select multiple variants.

Added after 2 minutes 42 seconds:
I also want to append: my brother is a serious adept of keyboard, he dislike to play on gamepads completely, and he dislike any consoles in all, primarily by criticizing the business model of console manufacturers and platform clouse nature.

[Yave Yu]

Nowaday, of course, I prefer keyboard.
