Fans Think The PlayStation 5 Controller Looks Like Totoro, Rei From Evangelion And More

Quick! When you look at the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller, what do you see? Maybe you just see a slick new piece of hardware. But maybe you see other things, like Totoro, a Stormtrooper, a spaceship, and more.

Since the controller was revealed this week, fans have been comparing it to all sorts of things. Let’s have a look at some of the standouts.

But perhaps it does look most like Totoro.

One more coincidence to be happy about.

Do people really think it looks bad? Like...I don’t know what people expect? It seems close enough to the Dual Shock, buttons are all in the same places, looks perfectly functional to me.

Are we expecting N64/Gamecube levels of design with these things? I’d argue that controllers have been mostly “solved” and anything that’s wildly different is worthy of that kind of attention but this is just...It’s a white Dual Shock. C’mon.
