Idk man.

29 years ago this came out.

The traditional controller for PS1 didn’t have joysticks. You needed a DualShock for that, or it’s predecessor the Dual Analog controller.

But yeah year or two here there, the DualShocks and PS controllers after that were very good controllers.

But those first decent ones came out more like at the turn of the millennium than halfway through the 90’s as you imply.

Back then it ps1 without joysticks and from 96 on N64 with extremely shitty joysticks. Gamecube came out in 2001 and Nintendo had clearly learned it’s lesson — to an extent.

My original Dualshocks as well as Dualshocks 2 from back in the day still have no stick drift

I was stoll using the first wireless one as a BT controller to play switch games last year. The battery gave out imo, otherwise zero issues.
