For games that piss you off all you need is practice I learned that the hard way after breaking 4 nes controllers lol!

Wow, did you throw your controllers against a wall?  ;D
I did, but I never managed to actually break a controller. All mine work perfectly to this very day.

And a problem with practising games that piss you off is.. well, it's hard to practise something you don't like usually. ;)

Yeah I broke them by stepping on them tossing them to the wall or the NES man I had so much rage back then. Nowadays when a game pisses me off I just turn it off and do something else.

I could never throw one when I think of how expensive those are. I mean for every one I could buy several used games in Japan. :D

I have to say Deadly Tower for NES pisses me off because of bad musics and gameplay  ;D

When I was young, Final Fantasy 1 pissed me off because it was so hard and I keep dying and forget to save in the INN.  :-\

Yes, bad music is sure piss offing. :D Especially 1942.

Speaking of bad music, is it just me but the music in Karateka sucks!? And this game also pisses me off because of how hard it's made. I mean, when you're about to travel to the next part of the castle on level 2, the gate at the end always falls on me and kills me instantly! And you only have one life! >:(

Wow. You broke NES controllers? are you some sort of super human? The NES controllers are the most durable plastic ever. The only controller I ever broke was a N64's analog stick, because of overuse. Also the stock Gamecube controller. What is it with Nintendo's anolog sticks wearing out!? Neither my PS1 duelshock or either of my PS2 duel shock II's sticks have any signs of wear.

Jedi Master Baiter

Nintendo should've stuck with what they did right - the D-pad. :P At least make it an alternative to the analog stick! >:( I mean, damn, they're still not doing this!  I'm sure many stick-broken Nintendo fans would be happy with this... & what's up with the tiny D-pad on the GC controller?  Someone needs to be fired.

The thing with the Gamecube controller +pad is that its the same one on the first gen non backlit GBA. Nintendo cut corners by reusing the same part. The +pad worked well for the handheld, so it was used for the GC. Personally, I use a +pad enlarger made by interact that attaches to the +pad via a glue like substance that's nearly impossible to take off. The adaptor came as part of a whole kit I bought way back in 2001 desgined for the GBA, but I used it for my GC instead. When the Wavebird came out, I used plyers to remove it and reattached it to the pad on my wavebird, where it's stayed ever since.
