    Sticks are a shitty interface? But it's not hard to aim with sticks. At all. It's harder than aiming with a mouse of course, but that's only because a mouse is more accurate then is actually possible.

    For aiming, yeah, they're worse than the input device that was used when the genre was new, specifically the mouse. It is a step down from the original, which to me means it's shitty. People have figured out how to make it work, so it's not like it's unplayable or anything. But anyway, aim assistance is one of the things that helps.
    Forgive me for jumping into this conversation without reading anything else in the thread - I lack context. But -
    but computers are just the raddest to play games on.

    Entirely upgradeable, and mouse and keyboard are the only way to play games.

    No you know what? Keyboards do not in fact own. They blow. They are the entire reason there's a giant fucking market for PC game controllers that look exactly like fucking dual shocks. They are shit for anything but typing. That I am forced to use them to enjoy otherwise good games is a video game sin.

    A SIN

    i remember showing up to a LAN party once with my n52 and one of the dudes scoffed through his mouthful of cheetos and was like "pfft, real PC gamers use a mouse and keyboard. using some stupid gadget is for people who suck and can't play right and need help. would you like me to turn on auto-aim for you and then get you a nintendo controller?"

    Hahaha, that is true. Why'd they even include a speaker in the Wiimote? It sounds like shit.

    Also, Pony, how is the n52? It looks neat but I don't know if I would want to shell out that much money for one.
