I was playing some of the old school games and it was quickly brought to my attention how used to those analog sticks I actually become.Much more thumb pressure that's for sure! Anyways, I was wondering if anyone actually knew which gaming company started out with analog sticks first? I remember playing Nights for the Saturn and it came packaged with the controller, which had a analog stick, with the ability to switch between the Dpad, and analog. I still have it and it really works well. Not for most of the games however. So, is Sega the first company to release a controller with a analog stick? Just curious, because I think it is a real innovative enhancement, and has changed gaming immensely! Imagine if it was never changed. I don't mind the conventional Dpad, but those twin analog sticks are the standard now.
