Sega Controllers

Always on the cutting edge of technology in its day as a hardware manufacturer, Sega helped push gaming out of the dark ages with its technological advances. Check out the Master System controller design below and note how it influenced the PS2's Dual Shock  model, which is so fine it was replicated for the PS3 design. Interestingly the models became more unwieldly in Sega's later years. Look at the saucer-like models for the Saturn and Dreamcast systems.
