Heatman Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Depending on the console you upgraded from to a new one, how fast did it take you to adapt to using the new controller different from your old console's own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 At most, it takes me a few hours and normally within an hour I've already learned how to use almost every function. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if it's the same model then it won't take me more than an hour to learn the keys. But if the model is another one and the key patterns are different it may take a whole day for me. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycrab Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Different consoles could have wildly different designs for their controllers back in the day, but now they all have the same basic configuration. Handles on each side, twin sticks, triggers, shoulder buttons, 4 face buttons and a d-pad. It's just the layouts that are a little different.

Not only that but the traditional console manufacturers have kept the same layout for their controllers across several generations so it's a breeze to use them.

Yeah - for one who's very good at using those consoles playing his favorite, it's always going to be a smooth process adapting to the new ones.

Head_Hunter Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Since I'm more into play station console series it wasn't hard for me to master the controllers when I did exchange from PS2 to PS3, from PS3 to PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - it's exactly the very same thing with me jumping from playing with SEGA console to Playstation 1 to Playstation 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I can't remember when I became use to my controllers, it's been long one ever since I started playing play station, which dates back when I was teen around five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I didn't spend time though to master the controller when playing my favourite games. I started early with gaming, so it was easy to get down with controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she means the controllers of newer consoles like the PS5 which has some additional functionality compared to the PS4 controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you know that the OP is a woman? Are you using X-ray to scan through the internet and discover the gender of everyone here? Okay what's my gender? Do you know if I am a woman? Lol. Thanks for the update, it is known that PS5 controller will always be preferred to PS4 because it's a newer version console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General PSA for all interested: Stacey Powers is a five-dimensional pandrogynous blob, but prefers "she" and "human female" for convenience.
