The best thing about the N64 controller design is often overlooked: Your thumb movement was never compromised in actual play (only removed maybe to pause). Today, the games make you stop all movement in order to abuse the D-pad to act like buttons. Forcing the designers to not do this is wonderful. If only it had L2/R2 and left and right bumpers, it would be perfect.
