I know a lot of Playstation fans insist the sticks are in the right place, but I'm also aware there's a pretty big group of people who don't. Why is it then, that there don't seem to be aftermarket controllers that make this a personal choice rather than a hill to die on? I'm sure there may be controllers that do this, but they can't be that common.

edit: just googled, they do exist but they're pricey, this one is £120



Apparently they're called 'asymmetric' controllers.

I just use one of these so I can play with an Xbox One controller on the PS4:

As the name of the link would suggest, it also works on the Nintendo Switch.

Feels fine and configured much more like what I'm used to

I'm able to use both the PlayStation and Xbox format controllers without difficulty

I also had no problem with the N64 controller

I have to agree with the above and I would like to add I really liked the original NA/EU Saturn controller:

Actually a shitter version of the Japanese Saturn pad, which had a quality D-pad:

Yes, that's obviously the best non-analogue joypad ever made, while the model 1 is cramped, ugly and has a shit dpad. But it's still great.
