Now, don't get me wrong, I love Nintendo, but the layout of the N64 and Gamecube controllers never clicked with me. It was like someone ate the buttons and sneezed them out onto the controller and they went with that!
That said, I guess if you like them (as some of my friends do) its a cool and good thing.
I hope you mean vomited, as most people don't really splatter their eaten food all over something when they sneeze.
In all seriousness, though, the button schemes on ALL last-gen controllers was whack. But I found the GC's shape to be more comfortable (I own both a Wii with GC controllers and a PS2, and I've played a lot of Xbox).
i wasn't a fan of the gamecube controller. i don't like how the face buttons are all different sizes, with an obvious bias to the A button. it's as if all games for the system would be designed so the A button is the most used (which may be the case, i dunno). guess it wasn't an issue to most of y'all, but i prefer my buttons to be evenly layed out and the same size. kinda like the 360 controller or dualshock. actually exactly like that.
i like the GC controllers, except for the fact that you can't play shooters as well. if they had 2 analog sticks, games would be so much more fun to play

I guess wireless would've been nice :P.

You didn't like the N64 controller?
I loved it, I thought everybody did.
That trigger Z button was genius at the time and made Goldeneye sessions awesome!
