Had to go SNES, but not just to break the tie.  With the SNES they gave the user many additional button options, notably the inclusion of the left and right trigger.  I like the simplicity of the NES controller, but it's not much different than ones that preceded it on other consoles.  

I dig N64 as a system, but I always hated the controller, especially in comparison to the Playstation one.  The Gamecube (underrated bargain bin console nowadays) one I see as similar to the N64, but improved with some of the kinks worked out.

Gamecube for me.  Pleasant size, colorful buttons, easy to handle.  Plus they had the first wireless controllers.

Everything everyone is saying about the N64 controller is true.  That thing is ridiculous.

SNES for me. 

I'd pick the Sega Genesis controller over the SNES.

Argentina had the "banana shot", but the goalkeeper was constantly leaving the goal, so it was easy to score.
Mexico also have the "banana shot"

In my mind the answer is gamecube, far and away. N64 is undoubtedly one of the best consoles ever but the controller is just awful.

N64, The console that started the 3D revolution, also the controller was innovative in that you had the memory card in the back and that you could use two controllers at the same time, one in each hand.

For those who say that Nintendo is only for kids I dare you to tell me of one child who was allowed to buy Conker's Bad Fur Day! Raunchiest Game Ever:

Those soccer players (or football, depending where you're from!) look like the fighters from `River City Ransom'!

Wii. I have PS3 Move and it is not as accurate. Yeah, I know, the made the hand held controller what it is today ( for all systems). But the Wii is the only reason I would by anything nntendo.
