Sibling Controllers
Sibling Controllers is a broad category that encompasses some parts of the third-party controller space.
They are often controllers that are unconformable to hold, break easy or just look weird.
So, you passively aggressively hand them over to your sibling or friend to make sure you win all the games.
PlayStation 2
The PS2 had a vast selection of sibling controllers
MadCatz PS2
Famous for being the core example of what a sibling controller is. Breaks easily, is extremely uncomfortable and will increase your chances of winning by 50%.
NYKO iType 2
This is a trap style controller to stop your sibling from ruining all the important buttons on other controllers. As your sibling likes to press all the buttons all the time, this is the perfect option as there are so many options to press so he/she cannot break them all?... Hopefully!
Nyko Airflow 2
This is the perfect controller for that friend that just cannot stop talking when you play. The extremely loud fan will dampen out any vocal annoyances and allow you to concentrate on winning Tekken Tag Tournament.
HyperMax 3
This is the controller for the one person that everyone in the friend group hated except for your best friend. Because this person was his/her friend and a major annoyance to your perfect friendship dynamic.
When you told your mom you did not want to invite him/her you got sternly yelled at and you needed to invite everyone to play, even the toxic people. So as petty revenge you gave Brad?? this controller... good luck... Brad!
Samurai PS2
One of your friends is extremely good at games and no matter what controller you throw at him/her...you lose. So, you gave him/her the most unconformable controller you could find... the Samurai. If that friend still won, you moved on to one of your ultimate weapons.
Resident Evil 4 - Chainsaw
You just lost to your friend again on using the Samurai PS2 controller, this time you will not loose... you gave him/her this the scion of ultimate uncomfortablility for the PS2. The Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw controller:
- It is big
- It is bulky
- It is unwieldy
This time you will win for sure!
Super Nintendo
Ascii Pad SNES
The Ascii Pad SNES is a bit unconformable but your sibling that was struggling in CO-OP games for the SNES needed a bit of a turbo boost... you would never use this kind of turbo controller against your sibling, right? To spam in Street Fighter 2??? RIGHT?!
Xbox
Gamemaster FPS
Well Brad... you say you are the BEST in the world at Halo and you keep repeating it over recess in school and will not just keep your mouth shut about it. Here you go, Brad... WIN WITH THIS!
MadCatz Xbox
MadCatz took on the challenge of making an even more chungus version of OG Xbox Controller that also breaks easily, a perfect fit for your sibling with small hands.
Nintendo 64
UltraRacer 64
So, you told dad that I took the last Mars from the candy drawer when in fact it was you... play with this little brother / sister.
The Super Pad
You really need to win this Ready 2 Rumble Boxing match against your sibling, the loser gets to clean the room... give him / her this.
GameCube
GameCube had its fair share of controller but no one more legendary then
MadCatz GameCube
This legendary controller has caused several family tragedies over the years. There you were, with your gameplan set and you only allowed your little sibling this awful and broken piece of controller while you were playing Smash.
Everything was going well until that one day some years later your mom got you a second official GameCube controller for your sibling to use.
You realized in horror of the beast you had unleashed, like Goku from Dragonball caring rocks on his backs for years... you had created a monster. Your sibling decimated you in Smash with his/her ungodly skills with a real controller and quickly rose to fame in the Smash community beating everyone in local tournaments.
Now you sit here 15 years later with chronic back pain, arthritis, and resentment of what you have created, pondering of those days of yore when you beat your sibling in Smash.
You no longer speak to your sibling except for the mandatory yearly BBQ your father desperately hosts to keep the family together. Every time your sibling pulls up in your father's driveway with his/her new car filled to the brim with Smash trophies and victory money... all you can do is communicate with grunts and pain.
The Ultimate Sibling Controller
Of all controllers on the market there is only one that reigns supreme and has stood victorious for several console generations. It still holds the throne to this day as the ultimate sibling controller.
Fisher Price: Laugh & Learn - Game Controller
Of all the controllers on this list no one gives you as the sibling more joy than tricking your younger sibling that he/she is playing with you, thinking they are the kings / queens of gaming... when in fact they are not.
It is the ultimate sibling con, and nothing can ever top its place as the number one sibling controller of all time.
"Sure...sure... little brother / sister look how good you are in this game... (You are not even playing MUHAHAHAHAHA)"
