It's ever so slightly smaller...by like a centimeter. That, my friend, is what you call an arcade stick..which is what those types of games were meant to be played on in the first place. -glares at shitty 360 controller-
The Nintendo Wii Black version certainly made me stare at it for a while when it first came out. I mean seriously, the Wii looks so cool when in black!
Don't forget, the cartridges themselves are as huge. I saw one IRL, compared it to a Neo Geo MVS cartridge, and it's the same size. Around 15-30 centimeters. ._.
EDIT: For me, the best looking one, might be the Neo Geo, even for its size. At least its size justified for the power that was given to it, a real Arcade console.
As for the worst, it might be the Jaguar, not because of the popularity. Because I've seen it in real life, and it's worse with the CD attachment.
8est-looking controllers o8viously are arcade sticks.
