Sega Controller for Dreamcast

Pros: Nice fit, tons of controls, lasts a long time, two memory card slots.
Cons: It makes other game controllers look like crap.

I had an ongoing obsession with Crazy Taxi for the better part of six months. I was always trying to beat scores, see how many passengers I could pick up and trying to remember all the different spots where people wanted to go. Even though the ...

Pros: Great for fighters
Cons: Nightmarish for racers

Well before the days when the original Xbox controller was vilified for being the largest hunk of ju ...

Pros: Nice solid controller, two expansion slots, easy to use.
Cons: Cord comes out of the bottom of the controller, no built-in rumble.

This is a fairly nice controller for the Dreamcast. I like everything about this controller. Even the dumb little things about this controller aren't that big of a deal.

The controller itself is very...

After 14 years of playing everything from Atari to Playstation I've been...

Pros: Has both a direction pad and stick
Cons: Buttons stick

When i first got my Dream cast i picked up the controller and thought thats massive. It was the biggest normal controller id ever seen. Ive had just as big super joy pads in the past, but this was the biggest normal controller. The difference about this...

Pros: nice layout, comfortable
Cons: only one analog stick

I think I have found my new best friend. No it’s not a dog, no it’s not two coney cheese dogs with a side of cheese fries; but it’s the Dreamcast controller which controls the people/things on screen(duh, like anyone this day and age didn’t know that)....

Pros: simplicity
Cons: cheap parts, only 4 button

Pros: - The controller is inexpensive compared to other 3rd name brands who produce controllers for the DC system.

- The button/controller design is easy to learn
- Rumble expansion pack is cool additional product you can...

Pros: Two controller slots, durable and soft analog stick, shoulder buttons are fun to pinch.
Cons: Not many buttons and very small, cord is short and faces you, very wide.

With the launch of the Sega Dreamcast, Sega's fate was already sealed. Sega had a huge advantage over Nintendo and Sony, but already they were disappointing fans on the first day. Not just because of Sega Net, but also that darn controller.

...

Pros: buttons galore w/ very good placement
Cons: cord too short, tad bit large

when I saw the controller, I saw critics raving about the hugeness of the controller and veiwing it as a great flaw, the same thing happened to the Atari Jaguar's controller, but the controller had a numerical pad(contributing to it being called a...

Pros: Looks kinda cool -- less buttons than some controllers
Cons: Has the joystick and the four way pad -- not comfy in the hand

I'll admit it -- I don't play video games much anymore. I used to. I remember that the high point of my young life was Christmas 1988 when I finally got a Nintendo Entertainment System. I was so happy, so thrilled, so excited to finally have one in MY...

Pros: Great controllers with unique designs
Cons: Just from the look of it, it seems a bit too thick

The Sega Dreamcast controller is great! It has all of the different types of controls of all the systems combined. It also is unique because it has a slot for a card that allows you to save data from your game and it also is a game by itself. Some...

Pros: unlike any other controller
Cons: That's not saying it's great though

When I first tried out the dreamcast controller I was frustrated and angry. Nothing seemed to work right and analog really bothered me to no end. It was hard to learn and it had a kazillion buttons that could possibly be pressed from buttons to analogs...

Pros: The best trigger buttons on any controller, two VMU slots that are hot-swappable.
Cons: Ridges on control buttons will tear up your thumbs, six buttons only?

Before I even start, I'm a total mark for the Sega Dreamcast. It's seen its share of criticism, it's even pretty much a dead system now but it's second in my heart only to my Super Nintendo (which I'm still buying games for all the time)....

Pros: Great analog stick, L & R buttons are trigger shaped
Cons: can get uncomfortable

I have the controller right here beside me. Not quite a double-edged sword, really more of a mixed bag, really.

First off, we have 9 buttons. A D-pad and analog stick, 4 A, B, X, Y face buttons, a start button, and two analog shoulder...

Pros: Nice analog stick, good L/R buttons. Nice fit for people with big hands.
Cons: Face button layout problems. Terrible for fighting games.

Never before, in my entire gaming life, has there been a controller so hated and resented as this one. I have met several people, both online and off, that simply hate the thing (funny thing is, most don't even own a Dreamcast). Well folks, I'm here to...
