== Updates/Corrections ==
Since reading through it, it seems much of this article hasn't been updated with current standards/changes to the systems. I've made the following updates/fixes to the "General" 7th gen section:<br>
* Reorganized to be chronological per all other systems in the list (appears to have been the original authors intent, until someone moved things around for a compyany vs company comparison instead).<br>
* Changed DS to 16 players, PSP to 32 (removed infrastructure note, as no other console is referring to online play) for # of controllers (in this case, meaning local multiplayer).<br>
* Changed the "Wireless" statements for both the PSP and DS to "Yes, though not as a controller.", as these are issues that crop up when including portable systems as "controllers". You have people interpreting "wireless" as a completely different thing (someone obviously thought these meant internet access, instead of wireless controllers, or were working off old rumors that never panned out to use them as wireless controllers).<br>
* Updated 360 for "Expansion" to be "Yes", as the last note left on it was back from when the MS Chatpad had not yet been released. There was no sense in having it yellow with a vague answer, as it's now proven to simply be a full expansion port, and for more than just audio. As well, the "Wireless" was updated to read "Wireless bundled with all systems, wired are available at retail." as all available 360 bundles now come with the Wireless controller standard (Core is no longer sold at retail) as wired controllers are only available if you can specifically find them.<br>
* There's been no changes to the Wii/PS3 controllers, so those have been left as is.<br>
I don't have time right now, but there's a large numbers of missing contrllolers for the Xbox 360. And I mean, a LOT. Specifically:<br>
* Hori Fight Stick (released in Tandem with 'Virtua Fighter 5', works with all the best fight games on the system)<br>
* Hori Flight Stick (released as a package deal with 'Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation')<br>
* "Big Button" Controllers (released with 'Scene It!')<br>
* 360 Racing Wheel (released back at near-system launch for PGR3 and a number of racing games)<br>
* MS Vision Camera (used as input on a variety of games)<br>
* There's also a matter of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band Controllers, though they're available on a variety of system with a variety of extra functions, it may be too messy to even attempt to add in to these charts. That's one to debate.<br>
* Lastly there's the Sony EyeToy controller that could be listed as well. Definitely things to think about.<br>
Oh, and for my 2 cents, I don't think the portable game systems should be under the same tables as everything else, there's too many dual-meaning values that confuse the reader, and I simply don't see a benefit.<br>

*Oh, and '''''PLEASE''''' help check the factual accuracy of this table. I've never played most of these consoles, so it's certainly possible that I screwed up when adding some of them - I've found a number of mistakes in my own work, so I'm worried there are more to be found.

I think we should stick to official controllers. Keep in mind this is only for video game consoles, not PC controllers. [[User:CyberSkull|Dread Lord <
:Fair point. I've also decided to stop adding other controllers for now, on the basis that I think we have the most important ones already. What do you think of my other suggestions?

:Good call. ;) I assumed that the trigger was a discrete component - so, the total number of "buttons" in that list would be "total buttons.. minus D-Pad and trigger". I guess the distinction - if any - would be whether the trigger is analog or digital. Either way, we may have to check that the other controllers don't need updating to fit the new definition.

I'd just count shoulders and triggers as the same thing, since they are <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/24.141.92.21|24.141.92.21]] ([[User talk:24.141.92.21|talk]]) 05:31, 15 April 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
== buttons ==
I've changed buttons to digital buttons and analog trigger to analog buttons. Please rearrange the counts accordingly. Please note that light guns like the zapper only have digital buttons, not analog. [[User:CyberSkull|Dread Lord <
This introduces many inaccuracies as most of the buttons on sixth-generation consoles are analog, even if they don't have a great deal of range of motion. [[User:Ace of Sevens|Ace of Sevens]] 00:45, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

This sounds good - I've been thinking about ways to reorganise, but this strikes me as by far the best scheme so far. I'll help update and check the counts when I have time (so much school assessment :( ). If you haven't done it by Monday night, I will.

Haptic feedback can be anything from vibration (the most common) to changing texture on the controller (patents have been filed, I saw on IGN; sorry I don't have the link handy). [[User:CyberSkull|Dread Lord <

I think haptic feedback should be cahnged to a more relative term for game controller, such as rumble feature, rumble, etc[[User:68.255.98.17|68.255.98.17]] 01:42, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
