My point was that it's not a convenient, comfortable button layout... I know the NES has issues (sharp corners on the controller), but at least the button layout is easy to use. Yes, it provides more buttons, which lets you have more options in your game. Which is sometimes good, and sometimes not. But... GC has eight buttons, PS2/Xbox 12. Nothing significant is lost, and an in some ways better layout is gained.
Oh, and one reason that keyboards (pc keyboards) aren't as good for some genres is because of the way the buttons are laid out... a setup designed for easy access to all the buttons is better for a videogame controller.
Oh yeah, and overlays are good in theory, but wouldn't changing them all the time get old quickly? Not to mention how easy it is to lose things like that...

Good. :)
