Which system do you have the most CONTROLLERS for?

[cityside75]

For me it's the PS1, it seems like I've acquired a ton of PS1 controllers lately through cheap bundles I've bought locally. If you add in the compatible PS2 controllers the number's even more ridiculous. Sadly, I still remember wishing I had the money for another PS1 controller way back when.

[thetoxicone]

N64, I've always had four around during the goldeneye era and tend to pick one up every now and again when I see a cheap good condition one, don't know the total but I remember coming accross quite a few while packing.

[Aussie2B]

Probably PlayStation for me too. I've had more PlayStation systems pass through my hands than any other system, and since I tend to sell them with only one controller, I occasionally end up with one here and there that I can keep. I'm still lacking in Dual Shocks, though. I only have one that's truly good, and that's the one that came with my system when I bought it new. I got another one that's so-so, and a third that's half broken. No biggie, though, since I prefer playing with the original controller with its superior, simplistic design. I think its D-pad feels better, and it's lighter and more comfortable to grip. I don't even know how many original controllers I have kicking around. One or two are often hanging around the PCs for emulation.

[Sudo]

PlayStation here as well.

[Icarus Moonsight]

NES... I have a dedicated storage tote for crying out loud! LOL

[Cryomancer]

Genesis or N64...actually come to think of it I have a shitload of Dreamcast controllers, maybe that's my answer.

[dao2]

dreamcast by far :|

[DefaultGen]

.....

[SpaceHarrier]

NES, if we are counting pretendo controllers in there. Otherwise PS2 is tied with NES, unless DDR related controllers don't count. I'm confused :P

[Leo_A]

I probably have at least two dozen Atari 2600 controllers. Wins by a large margin in my collection.

[ryborg]

I probably have around 40-50 SNES controllers in a big plastic carton in my storage area I've accumulated over the years. Someday I'll test and clean them up so I can package them up with loose systems/games and sell them.

[Kid Ice]

I tend to hold on to VCS controllers since they're harder to come by around here.

[coreys429]

NES controllers for me, If I see them at a cheap price like a buck or two I usually pick them up.

[robotriot]

I'm not sure about a specific system, but most of my controllers certainly are 9-pin Atari compatible (mostly crappy joysticks).

[namzep]

Probably the Wii with 8, total (three nunchucks, three remotes, one classic, and one Nyko sureshot). I just dumped all of my extra controllers into a trade tub so they're no longer part of the collection for the count. Otherwise, it would probably be the original Playstation.

[Pantechnicon]

It's either the 2600 or the Dreamcast. Probably the 2600, but Dreamcast has the higher ratio of first-party controllers.

[Oobgarm]

NES, PlayStation, and N64 are probably all equal for me, With the edge going to the NES.

[MrSparkle]

dreamcast, overkill amounts of controllers for that one.

[Joe West]

Ihave about 6 controllers for my AES & MVS 1F Consoles

[Trevelyan]

4 for my snes. 2 do not work very well.

[jcalder8]

NES for sure:
Power Glove
Dog Bone
3 original
2 Guns
and an advantage

[otaku]

I had four for my 64. I have two for my DC plus a gun, keyboard and arcade stick. Then there's my 360 which has rockband, several guitar heros and two wireless controllers.

[Lostdwarf]

Atari 2600

6 joysticks
3 sets of paddles
1 weird super joystick thingie

[Rogmeister]

I'm not sure I have a ton for any system but the leader might be the N64. I think I probably have about a half-dozen or so for that one.

[Steve W]

I used to pick up any Atari compatible controller in the wild, but after so many built up I've had to stuff them in Rubbermaid totes to get them out of the way. And yet I still buy the occasional one in a thrift when I come across one I don't have. Or even more rare, a boxed controller.

[Kamisama]

Master System I think, I got 3 of them and it looks like they all came with controllers ;)

I usually sell controllers that I dont need though.

[Wonder_Hamster]

i'm surprised no one has said Saturn. i have to keep enough controllers on hand in case a game of10-player Saturn Bomberman is going down

[Mercapto]

Just received N64 controller #17 and 18.
I buy bundles because it's cheaper than just buying the games.
Also have 10 N64's I can't get rid of :(

[modest9797]

Xbox 360 and Gamecube with 4 each.

[guitargary75]

Nes, I have about 28 regular ones and about 4 dogbones.

[kingpong]

Probably 150-200 2600 compatible controllers. I'd guess about 2-3 dozen sets of paddles and the joystick storage dwarfs that.

[murdoc rose]

2600 by far

[niolani]

I have three controllers for my PS2. The original one, an unlicensed one which is working great and this gory one:


http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w127/niolani/cesgame01.jpg

This is MY controller and no one but me can use it. I love playing Resident Evil 4 with this monstrous thing.

Well, I don't know if a DS stylus can count as a controller but I have a shitload of them. Almost everytime I would buy something for my DS, it would come with a stylus.

I know that a lot of people would often lose their stylus but, do they have to sell one with almost anything? I'm the kind of person that would double-check her things to be sure I didn't forget something.

Maybe I should make a necklace out of my spare styluses.

[BadChad]

Wow thats a PS2 sick controller!!!

Id say for me its SNES. I have a good handfull of those and just got rid of two when I sold my buddie my spare SNES.

[NES_Rules]

Definitely the 2600, between paddles and joysticks I've probably got more of them than all my other systems combined.

[WhatsMyUsername]

PS2 Controllers but i only have 6 lol.

[coreys429]

I sold most my NES controllers, and now I have 20 some Dreamcast controllers left. No system just extras from the pawn shop

[Misto]

I have about 9 Atari 2600 controllers (still can't find paddles though :() which is the most for me, followed by gamecube with about 6-7.

[guitargary75]

Nes that's for sure. I also have alot of Genesis.

[MASTERWEEDO]

genesis, many of them need fixed though. I want that ps2 controller.

[Cornelius]

Just received N64 controller #17 and 18.
I buy bundles because it's cheaper than just buying the games.
Also have 10 N64's I can't get rid of :(

I'm in the same boat with N64s. Just got another yesterday w/ 2 controllers because it had the memory expansion.

Not counting N64 controllers I need to rid myself of, it is probably NES. I've kept the 3rd party NES controllers I've come across, plus I have a controller or two tucked into a couple system boxes, there's the Wing Commander stick, Advantage, Zapper, Power Glove, PowerPad, a couple dogbones, Max, a wireless set, etc. I do need to get the Arkanoid controller and a Laser Scope, oh, and a U-Force.

[Porksta]

XBOX - Two Duke, 2 S, and one Soul Calibur fight stick. One more if you include the Steel Battalion controller, and another one if you include the Real World Golf controller.

[Atarian75]

i'm surprised no one has said Saturn. i have to keep enough controllers on hand in case a game of10-player Saturn Bomberman is going down

I have over 10 controllers for the Saturn in the hopes someday I will be able to play 10 player Bomberman. Unfortunately, I do not know 10 people locally that would still play the Saturn. Oh well.

[JunkTheMagicDragon]

2600.

as shitty as most of em are, i figure the more of them you have the better chance you have of having one set that works, specially for 4-player warlords.

[namzep]

Probably 2600 as I have a bunch of the regular joys/paddles and some of the different controllers (Sesame Street controller, anyone?). I also have quite a few for my NES but not quite as many.

[outsider]

I probably have more unique and total controllers for the SNES than any other. I have just about every controller variation made for the system, at least of those that I know exist.

[kedawa]

PS1 at the moment.
I have a couple of dualshock controllers, 3 or 4 of the original sony pads, and an asciipad ft2, although I think that last one is a PS2 controller if you want to get technical.

[sephirothpaine]

Tie between Genesis and ps2. 4 of each.

[fastlane250]

N64. I think I have about 10 controllers or so and 5 systems.

[Retsudo]

Dreamcast. I have 3 of them.

[darkslime]

Probably PS1 and 2.

I have 3 dual shock 1.
1 original psx controller
6 dual shock 2.
3 3rd party
9 DDR pads
2 arcade sticks
1 FPS controller

[aaron7]

either NES or 2600... but that's because those are the only controllers I have besides my PS3.

[skaar]

I'll go with PC :)

I've got like a million spare mice and keyboards :D

[Draven]

NES. I'll pick up a controller when I see it if I don't have one in my collection and I have a tendency to keep those that I've broken in frustration (I may possibly build a mural someday and tag with what game did them in). Seems like every time I buy a game they throw in a square one like they're doing me a favor...time to start producing NES belt buckles, I suppose.

[grolt]

The Sega Master System, not only because that's the system I collect for most, but because there were so many variations to the standard pad. There were three in total, compared to the NES's one. They were:

Joystick adaptable control pad with wire from the side
Joystick adaptable control pad with wire from the top
Control pad with wire from the top

So I have a ton of those three variants. I also have a number of Saturn controllers too. I'd say at this moment I have 20 SMS controllers and 15 Saturn controllers.

[jdc]

Mine WAS the Dreamcast, but now it's the N64 that's winning (including 3rd party stuff). I'm always actively hunting out decent PSX controllers in the wild, ESPECIALLY the old digital ones. I only use genuine Sony controllers and memory cards on all of my Sony consoles. They seem....happier that way.

[SegaAges]

Definately Genesis without a doubt. I just keep getting controllers. I swear I am shitting them out in my sleep or something.

[fahlim003]

Probably Sega Saturn. I have 7 in total (all revision 2) and 5 working. Probably PS2 after that with 4 (possibly tied with Genesis).

[MarioMania]

I have more SNES Controllers...I think like 11 or so

[jupitersj]

34 Saturn controllers mix of first party US and Japan 1stgen/2ndgen/analog controllers.

[Frica89]

Definitely the N64. I have two little brothers and the controllers just won't stop breaking. I've thrown a bunch out, have one where the R-button is smashed and can't be used, a third-party one that doesn't work for no reason, and others. The contol sticks are super-shitty....Mario Party and Paper Mario both had parts that required you to spin the stick as fast as you can (AKA break it), so at least one controller has been lost for each game. Even if you avoid those games, the sticks still wear down and become loose over time.

[Dreamc@sting]

Easily Genesis, I have upword of 20 controllers, at least half are brand new never touched lol

[telengard]

No doubt about it, Atari 2600 for me. Waaay too many.

~telengard

[Real Savage Like]

Atari 2600 for sure. I have over a dozen joysticks and four or five paddles, all in non-working condition.

[We Are Ninja]

I've got around 50 for the PS2...

[parker619]

definately the original xbox,, with the amount of controllers that have died on me and the amount i have then bought after,, i would probably say about 12-14 lol

[nintendoeats]

lots of PS2 (no idea how many), like 8 for the Genesis/Mega Drive and 5 for the N64.

[savageone]

I'd say Sega Genesis.. You'd be amazed at how many slight variations there are of the official Sega 3 button pad there are. I've sold many a Genesis over years and always kept controllers with itty bitty differences, as well as wacky 3rd party stuff (and theres a ton for the genny..). My favorite is an official Sega 3 button that has a cord which is super "flexible" (for lack of better word), it DOES NOT tangle or have (or can get) permanent bends/crimps in the cord. I've never seen another like it, the rubber sheathing is obviously a different material than the normal. Too bad it's the 3 button pad and not the 6 though. :(

[alxbly]

N64. At one point I had probably about 30 N64 controllers but I've been slowly selling them, trading them, etc. Now I just have a few more third party ones to get rid of and I'll be happy to keep the rest.

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y70/alxbly/N64%20pads/Nintendo64controllers640.jpg

[parker619]

lol that bright orange one at the bottom looks rather weird in, how you would hold it,, apart from the handle at the bottom :S

[Nebagram]

Probably Mega Drive. 1 six-button, 2 three-buttons and an arcade stick.

Xbox 360 if speciality controllers (e.g. guitars and drum kits) count.

[mr.soul]

N64. Seven controllers. I got the original 3 which were the first 3 i could get (clear grey, 2 atomic purple, ugh) so I just kept buying them to get the cool colors (green, yellow, red) and I got a grey one with the console. I think I'm just going to get all the colors... I mean, for $5 they're not a bad deal.

EDIT: now that I think about it, I have 7 for the 2600 too... 4 Joysticks and 3 pairs of paddles. I have two Ataris though.

[otoko]

I don't carry many controllers for my game systems, most of the time I just get enough to fill the ports...

But it would most likely be Genesis and Dreamcast

Dreamcast 6

Genesis 6ish

[AB Positive]

NES... I have a dedicated storage tote for crying out loud! LOL

Here too. I can't tell you how many NES controllers I have. It's stupid.

I actually have 3 dedicated totes for controllers and cords that are extras. I think 2nd would go to the genny.

Think I could find a snes AC or an XBOX controller end anywhere though? noooooo...

[Nirvana]

Playstation.

Now if the question was working controllers... :p

When I was younger, I would get so frustrated with certain video games, especially fighting games.
