I never really found any controller truly unconfortable! Didn't use use the PS4 or X1 controller yet, so can't comment on that, but as far as the other PS controllers and the X360 and original XBOX, they fit quite well in my hand and I never had any problems. Love the GC and the N64 controller! They're weird, yes, but I just like them! I personally like the Wiimote+nunchuck. It's true that it's not your typical layout, but It fits so well, and gives you a bit more mobility then the normal controllers. (IMO I think Metroid Prime with the wiimote is awesome and would not play it any other way! In fact, I find it hard to believe it was actually played with the GC originally). Haven't played with the Wii U gamepad much, but I felt it was ok, and people say it's really good so there's that. Haven't played with the Pro controller though. Haven't played much old systems, but I guess they would have the least confortable controllers. The SNES controller was small and flat, so you couldn't hold it that well, and that's why I'm assuming the other retro systems have this type of feel to their controllers too, although I'm not saying they're bad or anything, just less confortable then current ones. All in all, I never had any problems with any controller, so that's cool! (: Oh yeah, favorite controller: definetely gamecube! (; EDIT: I forgot! Handhelds are another story! Love handheld systems, but never liked the grip on them. (DS, PSP, gameboy, etc). They just don't feel quite right.
