Pořadí bylo Nintendo, Sega, Sony a ani nintendo nebylo úplně první. První bylo Atari. Tady to máte černé na bílém:
History
In 1982 Atari released the first controller with an analog stick for their Atari 5200 home console. However, the non-centering joystick design proved to be ungainly and unreliable, alienating many consumers at the time.
Also in 1982, General Consumer Electronics introduced the Vectrex, a vector graphics based system which used a self-centering analog stick, obviously a precursor to the modern design.
For many years, consoles ignored analog technology, instead using the digital D-pad. It wasn't until the emergence of 3D gameplay that the analog stick was brought back for widespread use.
In 1996 Nintendo introduced a modern analog stick on their Nintendo 64 controller. Unlike the D-pad, the analog stick allowed for varying levels of pressure and 360-degree control, translating into more precise movements in games such as Super Mario 64. Incidentally, Super Mario 64 DS was criticized by some for imprecise control due to lack of an analog stick on the Nintendo DS.
During this same period of time, Sony was also creating a similar analog stick. Their first version was the November 1996-released "Dual Analog" controller. The Dual Analog featured three levels of analog (Flightstick, Full Analog and Analog-Off), and dual concave thumbsticks, while Nintendo's controller only had a single stick.
The first revisions featured rumble, although this was removed for the American (and later Japanese) releases. In 1997 Sony had perfected their rumble technology and released their third analog revision to the market, the Sony Dual Shock. (Note: In 1999, Ape Escape became the first major video game to require the use of two analog sticks.)
Super Mario 64 was released in Japan on 23 June 1996. On 5 July 1996, Sega released NiGHTS Into Dreams for their Saturn console in Japan; bundled with it was the Saturn 3D control pad which featured an analog stick intended to give the player more fluid control over that game's flight-based gameplay.
Since then, all major video game console controllers have included two analog sticks, with the exception of the Sega Dreamcast controller.
