I’d love to find someone who makes a decent controller where both of the joysticks are above the buttons (so basically the opposite of the Playstation layout). Anyone know of one? I’ve only ever found no-brand Amazon junk.
Wii U Pro Controller
It’s a damn good controller too.
The only downside to using one today is that it charges via mini USB. Not USB C like a PS5 controller, or even micro USB like a PS4 controller. It uses mini USB like a PS3 controller.
Yeah, mini USB is a plague.
The good side is mini is far more robust than micro
Was legit my favorite controller at the time
Dang, this is definitely the winner. I’m a fan of Nintendo’s controllers, but never had a WiiU so didn’t realize they were in that configuration. Thanks!
I think it’s your best bet.
I am disappointed that this particular Wii U controller lacks motion controls, though. Seems strange for a console that treats them as a primary feature.
Not quite what you’re describing, but worth mentioning: You might enjoy the Steam Controller for the same reasons you like right-stick-on-top controllers. It uses track pads instead of sticks. They’ve been discontinued for years, though, so I don’t know how tough it will be to find one.
Thrustmaster makes the Eswap controller which are modular. You can change the positions of the sticks and buttons on both sides I believe. I dont know how they work wirh linux though.

That’s a porn name for a company.
I have high hopes for the Steam Controller 2. All it needs to be is a Steam Deck with the middle removed.
