New Xbox Controller Exposes the Problem With Bigger Gamepads

A new Xbox controller is on the way, and its pocket-sized build has suddenly made me acutely aware of just how little flexibility there is when it comes to controller sizes. The new Xbox Nano Controller might not be well-suited to every kind of gamer, but that's the point. Over the years, console gaming has kept things pretty rigid when it comes to controller size variety, and the Nano is hopefully a step in the right direction that brings more diversity to gameplay than the run-of-the-mill one-size-fits-all method that the industry has used for decades.
