      We definitely need more buttons, this should be the main focus. At least two more on the back, maybe six front buttons instead of four (ABXY). Maybe four main buttons and two smaller auxiliary buttons, like the Black and White buttons on the original Xbox controller.
      Gyro should be standard. The touch screen is a great idea, but not the way Sony does it; it should supplement – or even replace – the right analog stick. Similar to the Steam Deck.
      Oh, and if they could come up with a standard for "OK" and "Cancel," it would be great. Looking at you, Nintendo.
      Last but not least, : why is it so hard to make controllers that don't fall apart after a year or two?

      Personally I don't care about rumble at all, they could remove it entirely as far as I'm concerned. Same with analog triggers: they only make sense for racing games, they are shit for any other genre.

      Hall effect sticks. Make them into ergonomic split controllers with wired and wireless modes. Replace the right stick with a touchpad.

      Xinput is an obsolete API. It doesn't have support for any more axes or buttons than are present on the Xbox controller. It's better to abandon it for the meme that it is and then use compatibility tools for everything that fell for the meme. Forcing it on to future games is an atrocity.

        I hate it too, but everything supports it. I don't want to have to use another application just to play games outside steam with a PS5 controller.

          Trying to corral you into thinking you have no options and that nothing else is supported is a Microsoft EEE tactic. Just use compatibility tools and complain about it to shit developers who insist on it. The emergence of gyro as a valid input and controllers with a greater quantity of buttons, sticks, etc being very well received has pretty much exposed Xinput as being garbage, it does not have enough versatility to compete anymore and should be put to death.

          >(so naturally they made it incompatible with it)

          xinput isn't "incompatible" with directinput, makes no sense as a statement. it's like saying a chevy car is incompatible with a dodge car. you can't drive both at once.

          While this is probably not what that anon meant, Xinput simply does not support the same breadth of inputs that Dinput does, so it is not 1:1 compatible with controllers that have differing layouts.

            No - as I said, ds4windows isn't reliable software.
            I was using my dualsense with Cemu (which supports it natively)k, so I had ds4windows set to not emulate any input while Cemu was running.
            Cemu crashed, and it completely broke USB input outside of my mouse. Even across restarts, I couldn't use my keyboard anymore, and the controller was left in a "disconnecting" state that would never finish.
            The only fix was uninstallying vigembus completely.

              You could just run CEMU through Steam or switch to Linux.

                You missed the point there. Cemu supports a DS5 controller natively, which is why I disabled ds4windows when it was running (using the auto profiles feature).

                For convenience? The whole point of the auto profiles thing is so that you don't have to keep restarting it.

      Xinput is a horrendous API kept purposefully obsolete to match with microshit's equally obsolete pads, inferior to Dinput in every way (so naturally they made it incompatible with it)
      SDL should've been the standard since the moment of its inception but that would highlight Xbpx pads being utter shit straight from the stone age so we can't have that

          Games made for one interface are incompatible with the other, either not working at all or incorrect behavior. Former is acceptable and had it been made by humans a simple remap could fix the latter, but they purposefully chose shit like changing triggers from having 0 as the neutral state to having the midpoint of the variable.

            False, simply not how it works. You don't understand the basic computer science part of how these input APIs actually work and are implemented. sorry bro.

              Try playing just about anything from the past 10 years without an Xinput wrapper then, surely it'll behave as it should and not how I described it then.

                There isn't a back-and-forth required here. My speech designates that you are wrong to properly educated third parties.

                Your generation struggles with this a lot. It is not relativized. You do not have a "competing" perspective. Your "view" does not have "value". you are just wrong.

    Octagonal gate that are removable, with specifically screws. So that you can attach a aluminum plate. Dpads that are not attached. Hall effects instead of potentiometers. Fully white controller. Maybe a small fan to make them colder potentially, worth it for minor comfort. Optional weight packs. A way to change the triggers from being digital or analog? Probably with a special tool making the button travel shorter. More button choice with different grips. Cup holder. A loving dad.

        A well-placed touchpad is still better than using the right stick for camera control.

        It's not as good when you can't user your arms independently from one another, the necessary movement would be a lot more awkward.
