Im kind of iffy with the controller. I mean, the GC control was near flawless in my opinion. the buttons were all easy to push and it was very durable. But this new one, i don't know. it just looks like it will feel really wierd, but who knows, could be fun. Even if this system doesn't sell well, i at least hope they will do something like Sega and continue to make games, prefrably for sony, since i feel gates has made enough money for a system full of overrated games.
