The controller of games

So yes I play way to many games so I figure why not blog about the control I use all the time. I wanted to find out where the design of the controller came from and how and developed from nothing. So of to Google I went again. The original controllers were designed to mirror the arcade boxes and thus usually consisted of 2 or three buttons and a joystick. After the crash of the video game industry in the 1980s the joystick style controller disappeared from the consoles controllers. The first controller design after the crash was that of the NES also known as the Famicom in Japan. It consisted of the first D-pad (Directional pad) and two other buttons. This basic controller developed into the N64 controller and the Playstation controller also devoted at a similar time. The joystick made its comeback during this time as well both the N64 and mid generation PS controllers had one or two. Another noticeable difference in this generation of controllers was the introduction of shoulder buttons or triggers. The modern controller developed from these controllers, but they too have their own unique features. The PS3 and Wii controllers both have motion sensors built into them. The PS3s is nowhere near as sensitive as the Wii’s but it does have it. Back in history there also have been several unique controllers such as the light gun the Wii’s crossbow controller, the guitar hero controller, and oh yes the old classic the breast controller. Yes they created a controller like that.
