Does anyone else find N64 games confusing to control?

Virtual Boy's controller is very nice, too.

Nintendo has had some great controllers in their time.
Atari 2600 (AV mod), NES, SNES (region switch for PAL), Virtual Boy, Gamecube, Wii (D2CKey), PSX (Stealth V), PS2 (independence exploit w/ 160 GB HDD), Goldstar 3DO, Philips CD-i, Dreamcast, Saturn (racketboy's chip), Sega Genesis 2 + CD2 + 32X + Power Base Converter, Game Gear.

I'm starting to get used to Starfox 64 more, but the C-Stick still refuses to do what I want most of the time. The U-Turn works once every 20 atempts, it seems. Sin & Punshment still baffles me though, not helped by the graphics which are also very confusing. I keep dying somewhere on the level where you're chasing some cat thing.

I think I'd rather use a Gamecube controller other an N64 one anyday. I could never understand the design choices that went into that thing, at least the Gamecube one is comfitable.

I'd say the N64 controller is the best ever made. I still have trouble these days controlling FPS with dual analogue sticks, give me those C buttons and a Silenced PP7 and i can make a head shot from 100m! :lol: For emulating its perfect for every Nintendo console, use the D pad and buttons and its classic 8/16 bit gaming. Then for 64 bit its obvious! :P
