Leaker here is Brad Lynch, who generally seems reliable as a leaker for Valve software and products. He was also the source for the leaked renders of the steam controller.

  1. Wii, Wii U, and Steam Deck (soon Steam Controller) did it that way

  2. N64 wasn't dual analog, so not relevant since it wasn't symmetrical or asymmetrical.

n64 is relevant in any discussion about analog sticks on console controllera

The layout was very very non standard and had a single stick. I’m smoking a lot of weed but I can tell you the n64 controller doesn’t count here.

I said it was first I didn't say it was standard. But being the first it definitionally can't be "nonstandard" since it was the only one at the time!

How many controllers since the N64 have used that layout? The Sega Saturn Fat Controller is a more standard layout than the N64 controller.
