As it went on, sales dropped quite a bit. But it was still a big system at the time. So, it actually failed at failing miserably. It failed humbly, and with fans.
As for the controller, the only thing that was wrong with it to me was the durability of the Analog stick (Or Z button if you got a Power Pad, which had a perfect Analog Stick). While the D-Pad really was wasted potential, I'd hardly say that's enough to say the entire controller sucked. But on the other hand, the controller DID suck because you'd probably have to buy a new one every month if you had Super Smash Bros.
