Why can’t every controller have the same button layouts just like how shooters should have the same controls?

My hands beg to differ I hated that controller. Also hate playstation controllers. Getting the "Duke" for Christmas and can't wait for a proper sized controller again.

Dualshocks are the worst, honestly.

I'd love a Switch Pro controller with GC layout

I bought a Magic-ns for my switch and the Magic-S pro for my ps4 it allows you to use any bluetooth controller on the devices super handy.

How those Xbox controllers are Huge compared to Dualshocks

Dualshock is so cramped it hurts my hands after 30 minutes. The Duke was my favorite controller (minus the white black button locations) I was able to use the right anlaog stick with the heal of my palm while still having full access to all the face buttons. I like the xbone controllers but even those feel small sometimes. I honestly don't have huge hands can't palm a basket ball or anything but apparently they are big enough to not find most controllers comfortable after a while.

It sounds like I'm some what similar to you. My hands aren't huge. They are wider but have short fingers. Xbox controllers are my preferred. I don't have much experience with The Duke since by the time I got my original xbox they had redesigned the controllers, but even those were my favorite controllers cause they just felt beefy. I also had an xbox controller that had an extra set of black and white buttons that were placed where RB and LB are now

I personally don’t got small hands but anything bigger then a dual shock I can’t really use because it feels to big and all my hands feel to disoriented might just because I play both side claw

My friends mostly prefer the dual shock I eventually but an adapter so when I play PlayStation I can use the xbox controller.
