The Sega Genesis controller was never made for human hands.

They said the samething about the Xbox "hamburger" controller but it was fine by me. The N64 controller has always been the weird one to me. Additionally I like the NES controller but maybe make a bigger adult sized one.

N64 only makes sense if it wasn’t intended to all be used at once. Either your left hand goes in the middle with the joystick or the far left with the D-pad.

This was always stated in the manual for the N64 itself.

Am I really the only one here who read those?

It was designed to be held one of three different ways: middle and right, left and right, or (I can't think of a single game that tried this) left and middle.

It was clear as day to me, from day one in 1996, because I read the manual.

No, it's in the manual. It's even in the advertising.

But in the center of the gamepad, my hands were too close together and it didn't feel comfortable.

So I just reached across the whole thing.
