I used the PS1 one once back in like 2002, the screen resolution sucked.

The N64 and Gamecube controllers were both abominations, but the WII and Switch aren’t much of an improvement. The OG Xbox was a ginormous piece of shit but the 360 was a little better. The PS dualshock pretty much perfected game controllers though if you ask me.

Oh also Durden texted me and said he wants to pick Bubsy 3D.
The Switch Pro Controller is perfection.

Guys, there's been a misunderstanding... Joey's not on vacation, he drafted The Sims: Vacation (PC).

I hope everyone has their next pick locked and loaded. I'm going to pick my next one as soon as the time expires later tonight (if not earlier).

We all do, but I'm sure tree will find a way to muck this all up again
He'll probably select Madden 18.

I love the feel of the switch pro controller but there is something about the d-pad seems a little off.. sometimes I swear I pressed down and left or right is pushed.. it's off

I'm thinking of changing the time limit just for Durds.
