I think I'm the only person here that prefers the original NES controllers to the dogbone. I just really don't like the dogbone much at all and I've never had problems w/ the corners on the brick.

I grew up with the original brick and still prefer the feel of that controller to any other on any system. It still brings a smile to my face just picking the damn thing up; but I dont know if I'm actually happy or it's just Pavlovian conditioning at work, lol

I'm partial to the TG-16 controller. Aside from the short cord, it's a great controller.  Similar to the NES controller, but rounded edges and built in turbo.  Also, the Atari CX40 joystick is pretty good, after the gold PCB upgrade from Best Electronics.

Also, I agree, all of these caps-lock posts are a bit much. Unlike some of the other staff members who opt for turning a blind eye to poorly syntaxed posts, I however feel that it's a rule that should be enforced. A legible forum is a happy forum. ;D Please don't make posts in all caps unless it something that you're saying in a sentence that NEEDS vocalization. (Like that one!) Patrick, you have a good idea for threads, just please use proper syntax from now on.

To me in my opnion, there is nothing wrong with caps on a title of a forum because its the title.  Book titles are caps. When I read Yahoo articles they are caps, online newspaper headlines are caps, etc.  Thats how I view the forum.  Its readible to me and i dont know what syntaxed means,   But if it makes everyone else happy then I will just do everything on this site the way everyone else wants it done.  First it was "you cant type in caps on a forum"  Now I cant even type the headline in caps.  A HeadLine???  But I get it.

P.s.  To me, it is vocalization.  I'm excited about an idea for a post, and I type my heads in caps due to my excitement and for the fact its a headline.  Maybe I get more excited than I should because of all these rules.

Well my honest opinion is. I can still read it, I can still understand it. It's not like there is an EMERGANCY on the forum and that's the only time you can use caps. Although the only time I would use it, is if I just heard about a new game or release or another. but I don't see the hurt in the caps I can read what it says and if it's in caps and it's not exciting to me then I Know it must be exciting for them. But then again I'm no good at grammar and could give a shit about writing in general, i'm not gonna put all my focus into spelling and punctuations. it's a forum that shares knowledge and insights about something we all love. Not School. my motto is If you can understand it, Don't complain. but if it gets to ya then I guess whateves, everyone's entitled to there opinion...... But on the original note,
tpugmire Knows whats up! I really like the tg-16 controller too, A built in turbo button!! hell yes! that also controls heights of jumps, firing Speed, ETC. Yeah I like it.. I also will second with scott about the original over the dogbone... I like both but Mainly played with the brick and never had a problem with it.
